November 14 Update

Here is the latest update from the Banner 9 project.

All seven of the Admin modules have been completed and are in Production. Only two of those modules are also running Banner 8 (General and Student). EMSS has agreed to disable access to the Student and General modules (with the exception of one or two forms) on the weekend of December 8/9.

The Application Navigator was upgraded to version 3 in PROD on November 11. This relocates the menus and makes other light interface changes.

For the Self-Service modules, work is continuing on the pieces that are available from Ellucian.

  • General Event Management – Is installed and configured in DEVL and TEST, but a couple of bugs are preventing it from being moved to PROD.
  • Journal Voucher – Betta kickoff began on August 21 and testing continues in DEVL and TEST.

The work on disaster recovery is continuing, with the Go Live date more than likely occurring sometime in January 2019.

 

Menu Changes in Banner 9

IT Services will be applying a routine upgrade to Banner’s Admin interface on Sunday morning, November 11. The upgrade introduces some new navigation menus and moves buttons from the top to the left side of the page. We expect no changes to the pages themselves.

The list of Banner modules and pages will now be located under the “Application” button in the menu.

If you have any questions, please contact your normal Banner support person.
