Series 25 Update
The team requested a second on-site visit from the CollegeNet consultant to help the team work through how R25 interfaces with Banner and how to make S25 work how the team needs it to work.  Section builders requested a printed report of their individual class schedule and a registration enrollment report for Summer term.  Sylvia Sandoz developed both reports using TOAD.  The Student Core Team is concerned about using Sylvia’s time to prepare the reports and recommended a long-term plan be developed for producing reports.  Two issues exist:  who owns the process and how requests for reports should be prioritized.

Student Update
The team is focused on fine-tuning the schedule of just-in-time Registration Assistance staff training to be offered the weeks of May 12, 19, and 26.  A campus-wide survey was conducted to help identify the specific “track” necessary for each participant in this sequence of training sessions.  The first 3 days of training will accommodate front-line people.  Staff will pass a post-training test before being granted access to LANE.  Students and staff not working directly on the Banner project  are participating in a mock registration this week.  The Summer term class schedule text has been proofed and will go to the printer on Wednesday.  Admissions letters were  mailed on Friday.

Human Resources Update
Human Resources will submit feedback for Phase 2 Implementation plans next week.  Approvers and super-approvers are not checking the available leave staff  have or the hours worked when processing payroll data which creates major errors in the payroll process.  Managers have questioned why the payroll process is required.  A suggestion was made to provide refresher training for managers and super-approvers.

BWEL Update
Although many tools are available in Banner, good reasons may exist for some areas of the college to not use Banner and to find a way to support those areas.

Finance Update
A communication was sent to managers and administrative assistants about the error in OPE calculations.  Journal entries were processed to correct the errors.  The year-end process has been identified and yellow memos were sent to departments.  When changes from one FOAP to another are required, the department can make one total  JE, but  detailed backup is required for the auditors.  Work is being done to support fixed asset depreciation.  The team is meeting with faculty who teach fund accounting to develop a Finance refresher training schedule for managers and administrative assistants to be offered in September.  Approximately 85% of the 750 consulting hours have been used, leaving about 150 hours.  Workflow hours are not included in the estimate.
