Until just a few weeks ago, we had been testing various combinations of hardware and software to determine which remote Windows package offered our users the best features and performance for our environment. It will also greatly simplify future upgrades for GUI users. An alternate solution we tested was called NTerprise and is made by Exodus Technologies. As of this issue, we have started a pilot program of about 80 Banner users in the core offices using WinCenter Pro, to help us better understand the problems we may face when rolling this out to the whole campus in August. We are working with the FIS Team to implement several user- requested improvements to the FIS Data Warehouse.
Work is now in progress to create a new table in the FIS data warehouse.
Payroll encumbrances will not be included. This table will be refreshed on the same schedule as the Data Warehouse's Operating Ledger. Grant Code and Grant Title are being added to the Payroll Ledger and the Transaction Ledger. Vendor Number, Vendor Name, and Originating UserID are also being added to the Transaction Ledger. Changes to the Operating Ledger are planned.
