Subject: ALL IN for Banner 9!

Dear EIU Faculty and Staff,
 
This Friday we will commence the transition to Banner 9 Administrative Pages from Banner Internet Native Banner.   Here is what you can expect during the conversion.
 
Friday, August 3, 2018 – Sunday, August 5, 2018:  During the transition, all Production databases will be unavailable for use.  This includes Banner INB, PAWS, REPORTDB, and PRODODS.  It is also important to understand that any third party applications that depend on these databases will not be updated (or possibly unavailable) during this time frame.  We will have a Pre-Production Banner INB instance available for READ ONLY on Friday so that offices that are open can view data to help assist our students.  However, no changes will be allowed during this time frame.  We will provide details Thursday on how to access this instance.
 
Monday, August 6, 2018:  Banner 9 will be live!  All production databases will be back in normal working order.  We recommend you use Chrome to connect to the new Banner 9 Admin Pages.  Please refer to the Banner 9 page for updated links and information. 
 
If you experience any issues starting Monday, please contact our Help Desk at 581-4357 or support@eiu.edu.
 
Regards,
