The PeopleSoft Finance System (FIN) [2] allows University of Colorado employees to perform the tasks to manage financial information.

The system includes the following modules:

• Accounts Payable
• Accounts Receivable 
• Asset Management
• Billing
• Contracts and Grants
• General Ledger
• Projects
• Purchasing

The FIN system also integrates with CU Marketplace (the university’s procurement system), Concur Travel and Expense, and ePERS (Electronic Personal Reporting System). This resource is managed by UIS and the Office of University Controller.

Benefits and functionality of the FIN include:

• System integration within the FIN modules and with other systems, allowing for uniformity of tools and ease of using or accessing data. 
• Online, real-time edits for financial information, such as valid values for particular fields and business rules, which helps users create journal entries and enter other data. This helps ensure correct entries from the start and eliminates the need for after-the-fact corrections.
