Who, What, Where, When: Creating a Universal Master Person Registry
Business users often need people data from systems like UCPath, legacy-PPS, student systems, and non-employee data in the identity and access system. This fragmentation requires artful unions and frequent rework for similar requests across departments. To address this, we developed PersonDim, a master person registry. PersonDim merges people data from myriad systems. This evolving constellation of tables-now in its third iteration-serves as a comprehensive source for people data, tracking changes in identity, job, and status over decades. It provides easily identifiable business attributes to aid report writers and application developers. PersonDim’s versatility supports role-based communications, operations like timekeeping and access management, and analytics for workforce trends, tracking people throughout their tenure. By developing PersonDim, we streamline data management, reduce errors, and establish critical infrastructure for operational and analytical requirements.
