14 Current Model

15 Luminis – Simplified Model

16 Content Management System (CMS) A CMS automates the process of creating, publishing, and updating web site content. Templates - Consistency - Global Branding - Propagates changes quickly and easily Editing content without knowing HTML Workflows & Approval - A workflow is the rule by which pages get created, approved, and added to the site - Based on roles

17 Web Publishing – Current Model

18 Web Publishing – Using CMS & Roles

19 CMS – Features In-Context Editing –Simplified content editing/entering for content contributors –Content entered/edited via browser Site Management –Simplified tools to create & manage sites Content Contributors –Enter and update content and participate in the workflow. De- centralized and non-technical. Content Editors –Responsible for initiating and managing workflows. Ensures site content is up-to-date. De-centralized and non-technical Versioning –Helps people track changes to the content –Back out changes to older copy –“Safety net” Asset Management –Prevents duplication of data and assets Template Developers –Responsible for developing XML and JSP templates to support the system. Centralized and technical.

27 Current Model

28 General Person Update Activities Development of Data Standards/Policy Population of shared validation tables Definition of security

29 General Person Update Data Standards/Policy Identification number Names, prefixes, suffixes, vendors Addresses Emergency contacts Email addresses Date of birth/death Confidentiality

30 Shared Validation Tables Table – database structure used to store information Validation table – code table used for a particular data element, eg: student type, college, campus Shared validation table – validation table utilized by multiple Banner modules (eg: Student and HR), example Address Type Validation tables are utilized by Oracle for data integrity, ensuring only data of a valid type is stored Example: Address Type AD – Permanent physical address BI – Billing address CU – Current address MA – Mailing address P1 – Parent address 1 P2 – Parent address 2

31 Shared Validation Tables Phase 1 – Demographics (1 March 2004) Address types (STVATYP), sources (STVASRC) Emergency contacts/relationships (STVRELT) County (STVCNTY), State (STVSTAT), Nation (STVNATN), Zip (GTVZIPC) codes Telephone types (STVTELE) Email addresses (GTVEMAL) Citizenship (STVCITZ), Visa types (STVVTYP) Gender, ethnicity (STVETHN), marital status (STVMRTL) Veteran (STVVETC), legacy information (STVLGCY)

32 Shared Validation Tables Phase 2 – Required for Human Resources (15 March 2004) Campus (STVCAMP), College (STVCOLL), Academic year (STVACYR), days of week (STVDAYS) CIP codes (STVCIPC), majors (STVMAJR), Class (STVCLAS), level (STVLEVL) Grading mode (STVGMOD), terms (STVTERM) Degree codes (STVDEGC), degree level (STVDLEV) Institutions (STVSBGI) Contacts (STVCTYP), initials (STVINIT), honors (STVHONR)

33 Shared Validation Tables Phase 3 – Required for Finance (Led by Finance) Chart of Accounts (FTVCOAS) Organization (FTVORGN) Funds (FTVFUND) Accounts (FTVACCT), account indexes (FTVACCI) Programs (FTVPROG), Activities (FTVACTV) Currency (FTVCURR)

34 General Person Update Security Access, confidentiality Custodians, authority Definition of user classes associated with University role Define Security - Banner - ODS - Cognos

38 Authentication vs. Authorization Authentication --- ID + Password Authorization – Mapping between your ID and what you can do –VISTAS LOGIN VISTAS SECURITY –FRS ID FRS Forms

39 Self serve access User has no login or password to Banner or Oracle All Access is via self-serve with the Banner ID and Banner PIN. The form is run in administrative mode to allow the form to be run. The BID and BPIN are used to isolate the query to the user Luminis carries the BID and BPIN in a structure and uses this pair to access Self Serve –This means that if you authenticate to Luminis, then Luminis can hide the access to self serve (and webct)

40 Oracle Banner-d Banner BID/BPIN Application Server Banner-as-d Self Serve Banner-ss-d WebCT Luminis Luminis-d Security/Authentication Flow SELF SERVE User Access Passes BID/BPIN Stored in Luminis

41 Luminis Authentication Single Sign On Luminis Email LDAP Luminis ID/PW calendar IMAP/POP Portal Access CPIP Self-Serve WebCT

42 Banner Security (Administrative) Banner Account is an Oracle Account Account is Generated by BANSECR account selecting the GSASECR form –Typically centrally managed –Sets up Banner Classes and Roles –If you have privileges to the GSASECR form, you can give out any security in Banner you wish

43 How Banner Security Works All Oracle accounts (set up via GSASECR) have CONNECT ONLY rights in Oracle (by default) ALL BANNER FORMS have a front end security module Based on your role/class in Banner, Banner Form sets up your security for that Form at that time (ephemeral security). –To the form (object), the appropriate oracle security is attached. –A “normal” banner administrative user has NO explicit Oracle access.

46 Oracle Banner Application Server Administrative User Example SPAIDEN Form Completed Update Result Presented To User Security is complete (oracle security is taken away) SPAIDEN TABLES UPDATED RESULTS RETURNED

47 GSASECR User Maint Screen

48 Example Student Class Definition

49 Oracle Banner BID/BPIN ODS and Cognos ODS ODBC COGNOS Oracle ID and Passwords Maintained on ODS Independent of Banner Power Users Cognos Security Access

50 ODS and Cognos Security ODS access is by Oracle Security Only –Banner Security is not migrated from Banner –Who should have direct access to ODS? Need to determine levels of security (read only) and how to permit users in Cognos can differentiate users (like E-print does) –Users in LDAP are assigned different classes –Cognos Packages are programmed to allow access to packages or data within the package – manage through the cognos administration tools. –Cognos should be able to be part of the Luminis portal login removing a layer of passwords for the users

51 Xtender Security Xtender user account management via windows fat client. It is fairly independent of banner Meta data is available through banner forms Disk Xtender to add value added security –TBD

52 Action Items ICT staff are engineering methods for converting Global ID and Global Password to Luminis ID and Password Who should manage the Banner Security? –Most institutions do it centrally –FR and HR value add are done by the respective office. Who should manage ODBC connections to Banner-P? Who should manage access to ODBC connections to ODS Who should manage access to Cognos reports? Phone Access –Payments –Transcript Express Self-serve outside of Luminis –Web-for-prospects –Web-for-admissions

54 Why Chart of Accounts Is So Important General Ledger AP Central Fixed Assets Grants and Contracts Accounts Receivable Budget Development Position Control Financial System Student System Human Resources System Compensation Admin Housing Bio-demo Employee Relations Applicant Tracking Benefits Admin Personnel Budgeting Time and Attend General Person Recruiting and Admissions Academic and Student Structure Purchasing Payroll Calc Adjust Registration Third Party Sponsors Course Catalog Classroom Locations Academic Records Class Schedule Enrollment Strategy COA Financial Aid

55 Introduction to the New Chart of Accounts The new Chart of Accounts is composed of “FOAPAL”. FOAPAL is an acronym made from the names of its six segments plus a chart identifier. FUND F CHART C ORGANIZATION O ACCOUNT A PROGRAM P Activity A Location L

56 Required Segments Not all segments are required for a transaction to be recorded. CHART C ORGANIZATION O ACCOUNT A PROGRAM P Activity A Location L FUND F

57 Hierarchies in Banner Segments Hierarchies reflect relationships between the levels of responsibility. Or reporting– e.g.. For Org could be Campus - College – Department Allows easy grouping and summarizing for processing and reporting. Hierarchies allow various reports to be rolled up to the next level. Typically, a lower level of the hierarchy is selected to be the data enterable level and collects information from the transactions.

58 Sample of Banner Organization Hierarchy (F”O”APAL) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Level 4 Level 5 Level 6 Data Entry Level 7 Data Entry Level 8 Data Entry

59 C-FOAPAL Summary Fund F Organization O Account A Program P Banner Chart of Accounts Structure Segments and Hierarchies Banner Accounting String or FOAPAL Required Segments Optional Segments Characters 1 6 6 6 6 6 6 Hierarchy Levels 0 5 8 4 5 0 5 Chart C Activity A Location L

60 CHART Chart refers to the chart of accounts. Banner allows the use of multiple charts of accounts within one instance of Banner. Current plans are to have at least two charts of accounts – NMSU and Fndn. CHART C

61 FUND Designates a fiscal and accounting entity with a self-balancing set of accounts. Every entity general ledger in current chart of accounts will have a fund in the new COA. Some subsidiary ledgers will have a fund. Funds are needed for entities that must have a balance sheet. Current plans are to use first two digits to indicate campus and type of fund. FUND F 6 digits / 5 levels of hierarchy

62 ORGANIZATION Used to track the financial activities by functional reporting units. Designates the department/unit of budgetary responsibility and accommodates reporting at any level of organizational hierarchy. Replaces NMSU’s Organization, Executive Level, College, and Department attributes. Does not have to mirror the university hierarchy; just collects info for reporting. Organization is where the $ are spent! ORGANIZATION O 6 digits / 8 levels of hierarchy

63 ACCOUNT Designates asset, liability, fund balance, revenue, expenditure, and transfer account classifications. Replaces NMSU’s account control codes, revenue codes and object of expenditure codes. ACCOUNT A 6 digits / 4 levels of hierarchy

64 PROGRAM Designates NACUBO functional classifications (e.g. instruction, research, public service) and CHE and F&A classifications. Represents how the $ are spent! PROGRAM P 6 digits / 5 levels of hierarchy

65 ACTIVITY Optional classifications selected from a listing of valid codes. Activity designates temporary units of work, subsidiary functional classifications, or short duration projects. (Special events) Can reuse activity codes Activity A 6 digits / 0 levels of hierarchy

66 LOCATION Required mainly for fixed assets. Geographic location, building, and room numbers will be used to track all fixed assets. Can use as a misc attribute as well. Location L 6 digits / 5 levels of hierarchy

67 C-FOAPAL Segment Definitions Fund OrganizationActivityLocation Uniquely Identifies Fund Organization Exec Level College Departments User Assigned Classification Account Assets Liabilities Fund Balance Revenue Expenditures Transfers NACUBO CHE and F&A Classification Program Physical Places and Sites Required SegmentsOptional Segments SUMMARY Chart

68 Banner FOAPAL Advantages Overall, FOAPAL gives us more choices and more detail attached to each transaction upon entry Robust reporting for organizations and programs Expansion of information through the use of hierarchies and segments On-line inquiry for each part of the FOAPAL Attribute-like fields of activity and location which may be attached to the FOAP string for transaction processing Departmental definitions can be implemented into FOAPAL Provides enough flexibility to replace shadow systems

69 Cross-Walk Example Current Number 01-0-23051-5710 New Number Fund: 412055- restricted, campus 1 Org: 112345, Biology dept Acct: 571000, scholarship Program: 234598, fin aid program

70 It’s Too Much! Plan is to use an index to represent the fund, org and program Banner will recognize the index and retrieve the fund, org and program Index is six characters; can be reused Then will enter the account number SUMMARY: Departments will enter 6 character index and 6 character account.

71 Workgroup Responsibilities Define new comprehensive Chart of Accounts for all FOAPAL elements (Due March 5) Complete Chart Of Accounts tables in Banner (Data Entry) (Due March 31) Test new Banner Chart of Accounts (Due April 30) Map Cross-walk from FRS Chart of Accounts to Banner Chart of Accounts by individual account number. (Due April 30)
