Detailed Plan

2009 Support Packs - Detailed Plan.mpp

The 10/19/2009 snapshot will be used because (1) it stages time data after it has been loaded but before it has been evaluated, (2) it is right before the execution of the monthly pension run, (3) it is before the monthly feeds for the regular monthly payroll, (4) it is also the closest date to the freeze so it should minimize the number of transports that will need to be tracked and imported into the refreshed environments. (Notice the heavy slant towards HR/Payroll testing - but it should work fine for the other functional areas.)
