PeopleSoft Migration
Migrate PeopleSoft
and escape Oracle's licensing trap
PeopleSoft runs HR, finance, and student admin at thousands of organizations. Oracle has been sunset-signaling for a decade. PeopleCode customizations, Application Engine programs, and SQR reports need to move before support terms tighten further.
The Process
20-100x faster than manual development.
More accurate because it's governed.
Every step uses the same engine: AI that works inside a structured framework, not a blank canvas. The output is auditable, testable, and yours to own.
AI documents your entire codebase
The engine parses every source file — PeopleCode, Application Engine programs, SQR reports, Component Interfaces, Integration Broker — and produces a structured inventory. Every block, every business rule, every dependency chain is catalogued before any transformation begins.
- Full PeopleCode parsing with dependency mapping
- Business rule extraction into structured JSON descriptors
- Complexity scoring per module (custom objects, LOC, integrations)
- Automated documentation generation
Review the business logic — add improvements
Every extracted rule is presented in a structured review interface. Your team walks through each module, confirms the logic, flags scope changes, and adds improvements — before any code is generated. This is where you fix decades of undocumented PeopleSoft customizations.
- Visual business rule inspector — no PeopleCode reading required
- Side-by-side: legacy logic vs proposed modern equivalent
- Flag rules for removal, modification, or enhancement
- Add new requirements directly into the migration scope
Hire date must not be in the past
HR_ONBOARD → JOB.HIRE_DTGL posting period validation — add multi-entity support
FIN_GL_POST → JRNL_HDRLegacy batch enrollment for discontinued program
STU_ENROLL → BATCH_ENRLSelf-service onboarding portal with document upload
Added during reviewAI generates the modern application
The governed AI engine transforms every reviewed rule into production TypeScript code — REST APIs, JSON descriptor screens, and typed validators. Not free-form generation: every output follows the framework's constrained patterns.
- PeopleCode → TypeScript with semantic equivalence
- Components → JSON descriptors rendered by the governed runtime
- SQR reports → modern reporting with parameterized queries
- 5-10x fewer AI tokens than free-form generators
Local Rowset &rs;
&rs = GetRowset(Scroll.JOB);
If &rs(1).HIRE_DT.Value <
%Date Then
Error MsgGet(1000, 1,
"Hire date in past");
End-If;const job = getRowset('JOB');
if (job[0].hireDate < today()) {
return {
ok: false,
code: 'HIRE_DATE_IN_PAST'
};
}Automated testing and live preview
Every generated screen has unit tests derived from the original business rules. A live preview lets your team inspect each screen's layout, logic, and data flow before deployment.
- Unit tests auto-generated from every business rule
- Visual regression testing against legacy screenshots
- Live preview with JSON descriptor inspector
- Side-by-side: legacy screen vs modern screen
Keep building with the AI builder
Migration is day one. The same engine that migrated your PeopleSoft system becomes your tool for building new features, screens, and integrations. A DEX Architect uses the governed AI builder to ship 5-15 new screens per month.
- Same framework, same JSON descriptors, same governance
- Natural language → production screen in 2-4 hours
- Add integrations (ERP, CRM, APIs) without rebuilding
- Every new feature is immediately testable and auditable
Why 20-100x faster?
Manual development regenerates architecture decisions on every feature. The DEX engine generates against a fixed framework with reusable patterns. The AI doesn't think about folder structure, auth, logging, or deployment — it's all built in.

More accurate because every rule has a unit test. More auditable because every screen has a JSON descriptor. More maintainable because the output is standard TypeScript.
