S1NET Message Summary - 1 Dec 22

1. IPPS-A UPDATE: RELEASE 3 (R3) GO-LIVE. From COL Rebecca Eggers, IPPS-A FMD:  Key points below from COL Eggers 30 Nov 22 update. See the entire message at the following link. https://www.milsuite.mil/book/docs/DOC-1210294

     a. Mark your calendars for 20 December 2022 and January 2023! The Go-Live for IPPS-A Release 3 will be a phased approach to user groups. On 20 December 2022, HR professionals, including all subcategories, will have access to IPPS-A. All other users will have access on a date to be published in January 2023.

     b. Keep in mind that only those who have completed the required training for their elevated roles (R3 Leaders Course for Supervisors/Managers/Commanders or the HR Pro d/L and Subcat training for HR Pros) will be auto-provisioned. Any HR Professional that did not complete training or was not mapped will need to submit an access request.

     c. Granting access to HR Professionals first, allows time for you to set up your unit’s approval chains and ensure all managers have the correct level of access while also completing all essential post-Go-Live tasks.  All functionality for Release 3 will be delivered on 20 December; therefore, HR professionals will be able to submit critical actions on behalf of Soldiers if necessary. As we approach Go-Live; we will provide additional guidance on how to handle transactions during the window from 20 December until all users are on the system.

     d. Although the completion date for d/L training has passed, any users who have not completed their training should do so as soon as possible. Access to Enterprise Learning Management (ELM), where training is completed, will be taken off-line on 12 December 2022. Users that are not auto-provisioned for Go-Live will need to submit an access request after Go-Live in order to be provisioned by their unit validators.

     e. If you are a member of a cutover team, please ensure you log in on Thursday, 1 December 2022 (see attached guide). We will be monitoring users as they log in to ensure all cutover teams are accounted for. Faces to Spaces Cycles and S1 Pool/UDL build begins on Friday through next week and getting provisioned on Thursday is key to ensuring you are able to complete those tasks.
