 Welcome to the HCMX User Group! The User Group meetings allow implementers to learn and exchange information on technical topics with OpenText subject experts, partners, and HCM user peers. These monthly discussions best suit those with implementation expertise and previous training. Topics include product best practices, technical drill-down, release readiness, and 'drop-in office hours.'

When: Monthly Thursday at 8:00 AM Pacific (UTC-8) (third Thursday, see schedule below)

Where: WebEx

What: The table below shows the calendar of topics and dates. You can also subscribe to the Q&A and Learn online communities here.

HCMX Forum Admin Group

1) Alex Dominic Savio (Principal Product Manager) 

2) Arun Pai (Lead Technical Success Engineer)

3) Sivakumar A V (Product Owner)

4) Tiberiu Claudiu Dascal (Lead Technical Success Engineer

5) Uma Maheswari (Product Owner) 

There are three types of meetings:

Feature Spotlight—Join these sessions to gain a deeper understanding of new or existing CSA/HCM/HCMX features and capabilities. Our HCM product experts will provide demonstrations, host discussions, and answer common questions. The format for these meetings includes feature drill-downs using HCM/HCMX or other OpenText technologies, best practice sharing, and practical use cases with crawl, walk, and run scenarios for specific capabilities.

Release Readiness—We host the Release Readiness meeting to help you prepare for each quarterly release of HCMX. We discuss what is being introduced and the value of adopting the new capability into your business and provide practitioners with details of what changes, enhancements, and new capabilities are included for your implementation and technical considerations. We also recommend reviewing the release documentation and attending the Feature Spotlight drill-down sessions, which provide more significant details about the release.

Office Hours—This open meeting provides an opportunity for CSA/HCM/HCMX users to ask questions and engage with the product experts and their peers. You can also suggest future Feature Spotlight topics and share your own best practices and tips.

Upcoming Meeting Schedule 

Monthly discussions on Thursday at 8:00 AM Pacific (UTC-8) are technical deep dives for those with implementation expertise or previous training.
