Banner Upgrade
Listed below is a summary of the improvements and enhancements as a result of the upgrade:
SSN Search
Throughout Banner, users will have the ability to search for a record by entering either a SSN or an ID in the ID field of a form. At North Orange we have had this ability since the implementation of Banner, but it required that we add a person’s SSN as an ‘alternate id’ in Banner. This long-awaited enhancement will improve security because we can remove the SSN as an alternate ID and restrict the viewing of SSN to only those who have a legitimate business purpose.
Tab Level Security
This release will provide the ability for individual tabs within a form to be restricted to only certain users. While many users need to have access to the SPAIDEN form, which provides name, address and telephone information, fewer users need access to the ‘biographical’ tab on this form which provides access to SSN and birth date.
Student
Eight pages of problem resolutions for the Student module are documented as being addressed by this release. In addition, many of the views of data that we use in reporting slowed significantly (or became unusable) when we upgraded to Oracle 10G and are being re-written to be compatible with this version of the database. For CAL-B, new functionality is being provided for a revised 320 report and BOG waiver processing
