Technical:
Please see “Action Item” ID 1. Patricia reported that there are 388 student missing social security numbers going back ten years of which 45 are foreign students. From Fall 2004 to the present there are 9 foreign students. None contain CE students. Patricia reiterated to please email her approved codes as soon as possible to she can forward them on so they can be inputted in a timely manner. Patricia and Perry explained they put them first into a conversion account then copy them over. Perry reported that 34,000 institutions have been imported and he is working on setting it up so that MI institutions will appear at the top in the meantime he will email everyone on how to search for MI institutions. WebAdvisor is installed on the test server and will get started soon on the testing to meet the project plan. Joan reported patches were emailed out and explained it contained patches for: Colleague Financials-G/L year end closing process; OIT-security updates; Financial Aid-batch SAP calculations to work without errors and simplify annual set up; SAM-build code classes code correction; HR-to better prepare and track COBRA information; and Degree Audit-to speed up smart registration. Perry explained there may be a lot of patches not pertaining to specific modules and it’s because Datatel supports state recording in some states. Joan informed that there is new UI (User Interface) version client software. Perry explained in this new version there are some security issues resolved and doesn’t believe there is any end user differences. OIT will test it first before going with a new version which may be a while yet. Joan and Patricia inquired if bringing this patch information to IOC is helpful and do they like how Joan highlights particular areas patches in Team Leads’ emails. All liked both and agreed.
