Banner 9 Project Update January 2019

Banner 9 progress as we approach the end of January

Over the last several weeks, staff have continued their development and testing work. We are on track to meet the goal of transitioning to Banner 9 on February 1. Information Services is working with Business Affairs and the Registrar’s Office to prioritize work so that we can meet this goal.

On Friday, Jan. 25, we received important fixes for Banner 9 pages in Payroll external reporting, time entry, and HR faculty appointments.

As we approach the end of January, we will continue decommissioning forms in Banner 8. Once February begins, we will be prioritizing and addressing any outstanding issues after that point in Banner 9.

Banner 9 Project Update December 2018

The status of the transition to Banner 9

University of Oregon staff have been working hard over the last 23 months to complete the move from Banner 8 to Banner 9. Our goal was to finish this work by December 31, and we have decided to extend the timeline by one month.

By January 15, we will have transitioned the majority of the forms. Banner 8 forms will be disabled after they are successfully moved to Banner 9, and we will update the list of forms available on the Banner 9 blog at https://blogs.uoregon.edu/banner9/banner-forms-available-in-banner-9/. A few select forms, such as Time Entry for Payroll, will be available until January 31, 2019. Banner 8 will no longer be supported as of January 31.

The decision to extend the deadline was based on concerns expressed by the Banner Service Advisory Board and the need to minimize risk by moving off of Banner 8 as soon as possible.
