Quick Glance
- Change in Names/Terminology
- Internet Native Banner/INB = Admin Pages
- Self Service Banner/SSB/BroncoWeb = Self Service/BroncoWeb
Keyboard shortcuts are different than what currently works in 8 (see list below)
Admin Pages will be available before Self Service
Banner 9 will use Single Sign on (Your Windows/Active Directory Password)
- During Transition you'll need to log into both the Banner 8 and Banner 9 environments
- For Testing and because not all Banner 9 modules have been released
Testing
Users need to test EVERYTHING in Banner 9 as we migrate!
“Test EVERYTHING” in DEVL “by end users performing their daily tasks”
“Opening a form is not enough testing”
Banner 9 is browser dependent/completely web based
Ellucian Recommends using Chrome
Clearing your browser cache is often a first step in troubleshooting issues (see: Automatic Cache Clearing - Google Chrome )
No longer dependent on JAVA
“It is SLOWER and ALWAYS will be”
Ellucian is looking to make it better
Be prepared that it will be slower and there will NOT be a fix for it
If you use the 8 shortcuts on Banner 9 it will further slow everything for everyone on forms down (not just you)
