To: Business Managers and accounting personnel
From: ConnectCarolina Change Management Team
Date: January 7, 2013
We are a year from the planned go-live of the ConnectCarolina Finance and HR/Payroll Project. The implementation of PeopleSoft will bring fundamental changes to how business is done at the University. The new chart of accounts structure is defined by chartfields that replace the old FRS account and object. To help you understand what the changes mean to campus, a webinar titled “Introduction to Chartfields” has been created for campus users.
The “Introduction to Chartfields” webinar will be presented twice in January, and all campus accounting and financial personnel are invited to participate. The webinars will have the same content. The dates are:
Friday, Jan. 11, 2:30-3:15 p.m.
Friday, Jan. 25, 2:30-3:15 p.m.
You may want to view the webinar as a group, perhaps as part of a staff meeting. There will be plenty of time for questions after the presentation.
We will record one of these sessions for future use and will send links in February to the recorded session.

*We strongly suggest accessing the link and signing in 15 minutes before the event starts.*
Audio for the webinar will be available through the computer, not phone. To access audio, view the webinar at a computer with speakers.
Questions can be submitted via the chat feature. If viewing as part of a group, nominate someone to submit questions for the entire group via the chat feature.
Help:
If you have problems connecting to the webinar, it may be due to one of two issues with Java settings. One is your default program settings – covered in the article linked below.

If adjusting your settings doesn’t work, your second option is to try uninstalling and reinstalling Java.
If neither of these solutions works, you can email financetrainer@unc.edu and we will work with you.
