Admissions:
Please see “Action Item” ID 5. George reported the Team had there final phone consultation on 8/25/06 only one hour and 15 minutes were used therefore forty five minutes are able to be used at a later date. Communication management questions were reviewed. On Saturday, 8/26/06 from 8:00 a.m to approximately 3:00 p.m. the Team tested Release 18 Test and found only a couple of glitches in which Patricia have been informed on. The transfer equivalencies screen was also tested and found a couple of data entry errors. The Team is ready to do communication management training and felt that a graduated approach would be best. There will be three components: Friday, 9/15/06 UI Training (one hour), Friday, 9/22/06 Prospect and Admissions Entry Training and lastly on Communication Management Training (date to be determined). With the help of IT a Power Point training regiment will be created to go along with training for future employees or for review. Brenda explained how the trainers and facilitators where chosen. George stated that he is real confident Admissions will go Live on 10/1/06.
Student Academic Management:
Jean reported the Team did not meet last week or this week due to Faculty Seminar days and the first week of classes. The Team also tested Release 18 on Saturday, 8/26/06. Program screens were tested and some registrations were done and all went well. Working on getting the academic programs ready for Admissions. Jean brought up the issue of the obsolete programs. Patricia said to communicate the final list to her and then it can be entered into Live Release 18. Kathyana has been working on the duplicate records and Darlene Peklar is double checking everything. Approximately six hundred are done.

Technical:
Please see “Action Item” ID 1. Please see “Action Item” ID 2.
Kamlesh thanked those who came in on Saturday, 8/26/06 to test and reiterated that testing is never complete and that patching will always have to be tested every month. Patricia will send out a packet next week on patches. Kamlesh inquired if the IOC wanted to review the packet first before they are sent out. Everyone liked the idea therefore Joan Jolman will present the packet when available, regarding what the patch affects, what needs to be tested, etc. and answer any questions any one may have.
Patricia brought up the issue of how many sessions a user can have open. Colleague Release 18 uses two licenses per session and the Technical Team recommended to IOC to start out limiting each person to one session opened and go on a case by case basis as to opening up more than one session per person. Kamlesh explained from Release 17 to 18 Datatel doubled the licenses to 130 because of the way the new system is set up; one license is used for the application and one is used for the database; therefore two licenses are used for one session/one user. George inquired on the cost of licenses. Kamlesh answered that each licenses purchase price is approximately $1,400.00 per year. Teresa mentioned she’d like to see future discussion on the determination/authorization of who will be able to open two sessions and have it brought to the IOC table. Jean inquired about student accounts. Perry explained that if there are a certain amount of licenses have been allocated for students if all of them are being used then the web processing will actually wait and put student in a queue/line. Please see Decisions Made” ID 3.
Teresa inquired on an issue regarding an automatic time out period from a user not having log out of Colleague and shared the idea of internally promoting to log off. Perry explained that there are some for WebAdvisor but for UI sessions there are none set as of yet. This issue was discussed.
Patricia informed the Admission Team would like to customize one of their screens to require the residency code be entered and the Technical Team recommends that if the customization affects more than one area the customization request should be brought to the IOC table for approval if not then it be brought to IOC for information. Please see “Decisions Made” ID 4.
