Enterprise File Transfer and Batch Scheduling System

Business analysts and technology staff who use enterprise systems (such as PeopleSoft Financials, PeopleSoft Human Resources Management System, and PeopleSoft Campus Solutions) must request managed batch scheduling and file transfers from the Job Scheduling and Transfers team in the Office of Information Technology. 

We set up all file transfers using two technologies:

• Axway, the University's secure file transfer system
• Autosys, the system that schedules your Axway transfers

All batch schedule requests—including those without an accompanying file transfer—use Autosys. Autosys uses the PeopleSoft process schedulers to run batch programs according to business process requirements; for example, student records are updated using the batch schedule process.

When you request a file transfer, we perform technical set up, review, testing, and migration work using both systems, which can take anywhere from part of a business day up to 10 business days, depending on the nature of the request.
