IMPLEMENTATION
Your priorities are our priorities—we’re here every step of the way.
Our streamlined set-up and onboarding means you’ll hit the ground running with your new allocation rule wizard, streamlined budgeting workflow, and informative transactions dashboards.
Implementation: What To Expect
Allovue was designed to ensure that accurate, timely data is available to our customers faster and with less frustration than past technology integrations they’ve experienced. Our implementation team will work alongside your district to configure Allovue for your district’s needs and support your staff.
Kick-Off
- The introductory meetings bring together key district staff to discuss implementation timeline and steps, schedule meetings, and align the overall approach to your district’s goals. Our focus on change management and proactive support begins from the get-go.
Data & Quality Assurance
For Allovue Allocate
- Allovue validates your formula and ensures that it accurately reflects your district’s resource allocation model. (No more formula errors in spreadsheets!)
For Allovue Budget Suite
- Budget design sessions provide guidance on how to structure allocations, positions, and expenses in a way that supports your unique budget configuration.
For Allovue Manage
- We’ll configure Allovue Manage to your chart of accounts, establish a data connection with your ERP, import data from the general ledger and transaction journal, and conduct quality tests.
Training
- When it comes to training, we know that two statements ring true: seeing is believing and it’s best to learn by doing. We facilitate interactive sessions to ensure that everyone receives hands-on training and gets excited about using PowerSchool Allovue to make their jobs easier.
Ongoing Support
- After implementation is complete, your district will continue to receive long-term support from the PowerSchool Allovue team through check-in meetings and access to live support and tutorials.

You might be wondering ...
The timeline for a PowerSchool Allovue implementation depends on the product modules to be implemented and the size of your district. Implementation is typically completed in 90-120 days, depending on which products you’re implementing. In most cases, we need less than half a day’s support from your district’s IT team!
PowerSchool Allovue does not replace your ERP or accounting system. Allovue products sit on top of your existing system and imports all required data nightly or uses existing bulk import file formats, depending on the products you implement. See Allovue and Your ERP for more information.
PowerSchool Allovue is designed to work with any chart of accounts structure. No matter how your district organizes its financial data, we can load it into PowerSchool llovue with your labels and values. We also can load non-account data like purchase order numbers and vendors for transaction data. PowerSchoolAllovue is flexible enough for school districts to organize their budgets however they’d like. You can create as many individual budgets with as many budget builders, approvers, or viewers as meets your needs.
