How Will Core Financial Users Get Support?

Core Financial will "Go-Live" on June 23rd. As with any major system implementation, we anticipate there will be an adjustment period during the first several months of production. To alleviate these problems, and the user frustration that often accompanies them, we have implemented a set of post-Go-Live stabilization and support processes. These five support processes are described below:


Step 1: Consult the On-Line Quick Reference (OLQR) Tool

Step 2: Contact a Super User

  • Serves as first point of contact for End Users when you have a question about the Core Financial system
  • Representatives from each Directorate
  • Individuals who have participated in the Core Financial implementation effort
    • Conference Room Pilot (CRP)
    • System Integration Testing (SIT)
    • User Acceptance Testing (UAT)
    • Have completed the required training classes - Instructor-led and web-based
    • Located at their regular work stations and are available to answer questions about the system/processes
    • A list of Super Users can be found in the OLQR (http://olqr-cf.ifmp.nasa.gov/)

Step 3: Contact the IFMP Help Desk

  • Accessible via Hotline at x64IFM (301-286-4436)
  • Automated distribution
    • Press 1 - IFM software or account assistance
    • Press 2 - Core Financial assistance
    • Press 3 - Travel Manager assistance
    • Press 0 - All other IFM assistance
    • Core Financial (CF) Help Desk
    • Obtains information regarding questions, issues and requests
    • Will either provide answer immediately or log call for follow-up
