We had a team dinner tonight and somebody asked a PeopleSoft trivia question I couldn't answer. Nobody at the table knew the answer, including the guy who asked the question. Since I hate it when there's something I don't know about PeopleSoft, I thought I'd see if any of you guys have the answer.
Anyway, here's the question:
Back in the 1990's, ADP sold their own custom version of PeopleSoft. What was ADP's name of this application?
Leave a comment if you know the answer. Bonus points if you know the version.

Thanks, Chris. Wonder what the chances of somebody getting an agreement like that from Oracle today would be.
But to answer the original question, the name of ADP's offering based on their perpetual license of PeopleSoft versions 3-6 was ADP Horizon (at least we think so).

You're correct, ADP's product was HRizon. HRizon was retired at version 9.0 around late 2004. ADP Enterprise and Payforce have since both replaced it as Java web-based apps. HRizon still lives however at some clients and with its PeopleSoft 6.0 looking interface.
Both Enterprise and Payforce are still based on Peoplesoft code, include many of the older PS HRMS and Tools tables (e.g. PS_JOB, PSRECDEFN), and components including Data Mover and SQRW.

I installed/upgraded version 1-3 of HRizon back in the day (mid-90's)...

I actually wrote C code for ADP on their last HRizon product. The C code still had PeopleSoft copyright info in it. I actually coded the first Rapid Pay Data Entry extension to the HRizon product. I actually saw the code structure for PeopleTools, Data Designer, and the like. Pretty cool... ADP bought the rights to PeopleSoft source code that lastest all the way up to PeopleSoft version 7.

Here's part of the 1996 PeopleSoft S-4 statement that goes into details about the ADP relationship.

And here's some site that has copies of existing contracts to use as samples. This link goes to part of the ADP contract back in 1994. I have no idea how they managed to get ahold of that (although it may have come out in some court cases; the Psft/ADP relationship wasn't always hugs and kisses).

Funny seeing Bob Finnell's name in there. He was PeopleSoft's first corporate attorney. When he was first introduced at a company wide meeting as our first official attorney, the crowd booed :-) He was a good guy though.
