Banner Relationship Management - Admission

by Andrew Minegar

Wiki MarkupBRM (Banner Relationship Management) was set up over the summer as a replacement for the communication modules in AIMS and the alternative to Banner when looking up information on individual students. To summarize a huge amount of work into a few sentences, the Admission Team \ [including representatives from the College, Theological School, Graduate School, and Continuing Education] prepared for this implementation by mapping each admission office's communication plan (mailings and e-mailings) and building BRM campaigns to handle each leg of that plan. The campaigns are very visual, and allow for individualized communication with prospective students in a way that AIMS could not. In early August, we "went live" by launching both Banner and BRM.

As with all new systems, there will be changes to how we manage information and data. Banner has a number of new features that we will utilize—as well as some limitations—and starting today we will share with you the changes that may affect your paycheck, benefits, and/or related information. We want to alert you to these changes now so that you can begin to plan for any changes that may impact how you manage your personal finances. unmigrated-wiki-markup

Effective with the first paychecks issued in January, 2012, a number of changes are being made. \ [Please refer to your August issue of HR News for these details.]unmigrated-wiki-markup

+Monthly Time Reporting.+ Monthly paid staff will be required to report time used in one month no later than the end of the following month (e.g., time taken in September must be reported before October 31). You will no longer be able to report time used later in the year. Now would be a good time to review your monthly time reports to ensure that you are up to date. Once we move to Banner \ [on January 1, 2012], you will not be able to go back to correct and/or update time taken before December 31, 2011.

General Person

by John Saul

Over the summer, several new parts of the Drew 360 project went live. The most core element that went live in August was the General Person portion of Banner. As of August 8th, all records about who people are at Drew are now housed and maintained within the Banner system. This means that all name, address and phone information is being maintained via the Banner system and being automatically pushed back into our legacy AIMS system so that other areas, such as the Business Office, have correct information until they are also live in Banner. unmigrated-wiki-markup

While this is a fundamental and important step in going live with the rest of the products in the Drew 360 project, what this really means for the general public at Drew is very little at this time. You shouldn’t notice any major changes to how you access systems, or where you go to get your services. The only real difference is that address changes, while still able to be submitted online, are going to happen on a slightly more delayed schedule \ [until everything is on Banner]. Any Students or Faculty/Staff who need a more immediate address change should contact the Registrar’s office or Human Resources respectively.
