Q7: When Banner upgrades are applied, is your institution able to maintain the customizations to
Banner? YES (8 of 8 responding institutions)
Q7 Please Explain if Yes:
1.
Our modifications are made outside of baseline Banner. We do not modify baseline.
2.
Manual remediation required.
3.
Many times additional resources are necessary to be obtained.
4.
We have no choice but to keep these customizations up to date since the business areas
rely on the software with the mods.
5.
Only customizations are in the self serve area.
6.
Standard practice of isolating customizations.
7.
We have minimal modifications to delivered Banner screens. We try to build add-ons
that do not affect the delivered screens.
8.
Banner here only has about three custom forms.
Q9 - Willingness to share Data Policy/Standards charge collected for Wilkes internal purposes only.
Q10: Additional Context (2 responses):
1.
We do have an Information Systems Committee, but not a policy/standards committee
per se. We extend Banner using Application Express.
2.
Customizations have been done on all modules but not necessarily “to ensure
compliance…”
