VPAT® Version 2.0 - October 2017
This VPAT summarizes:
This VPAT applies to only version December 2019. It does not apply to any versions of PeopleSoft Campus Solutions Applications 9.2x after this. This VPAT has been superseded by PeopleSoft Campus Solutions Applications (July 2020 revision) 9.2x.
This VPAT does not cover the following product areas:
Screen Reader Mode is configured in PeopleSoft products on a per user basis. With PeopleTools, there are a variety of methods which can be used to enable Screen Reader Mode. The first method is at sign-on, where the user can select a checkbox directly on the sign-on page to enable Screen Reader Mode. The second method allows each individual user to configure the User Interface (UI) mode in which they operate, whether it is Standard User Mode or Screen Reader Mode. The UI mode is set via the user preferences in PeopleTools Personalizations. To set Screen Reader Mode user preferences, the user navigates to 'My Personalizations' and then selects 'Personalize General Options.' The next step is to set the Accessibility Features Personalization Option to 'Use Screen Reader Mode'.
There is a section in the document "PeopleSoft PeopleTools 8.57 PeopleBook: Accessibility Guide" titled "Enabling Accessibility Layout Features to Support Assistive Technology" that further explains the steps to configure Screen Reader mode in the application.
This product interacts with or is built with the other Oracle products listedin this section. Click below to view information about the accessibility ofthese dependent products.
