Hi Everyone, SDSU Foundation did roll out the preaward module of Banner. It works quite well. While I am on the postaward side of the house, we are please that we can copy forward a lot of the data from the proposal into our grant and then create funds. It has saved a lot of duplicate data entry. Sandra M.

We also discovered no other university tat has actually rolled out the pre-award module. However, as of Jan 2005, we will be using the module to route proposals for signature, etc. Planning for this roll out - along with all of the other groups on campus included HR and Financials, has forced the opportunity to look at all of our business processes. We have been able to define new processes that better align the tasks associated with research and sponsored projects. Please let me know how the Banner process goes and if anyone else is considering ORACLE or has made the commitment, please let me know - Wendy A.

Chermside Sent: Thursday, July 08, 2004 9:27 AM To: xxxxxx@HRINET.ORG Subject: Re: [RESADM-L] Banner We will be going to Banner soon, for accounting. We are thoroughly committed to InfoEd for all our pre-award, and we also have Human Subjects, Animal Subjects, and will soon be coming up with Proposal Preparation and Protocol Preparation. This will provide us with a comprehensive, integrated and fully electronic pre-award and received award system. Therefore we will not be thinking about the Banner pre-award. We will have to develop certain interfaces so that Accounting can take the InfoEd data as input to Banner. InfoEd should be able to provide a starting point for that which we will have to tweak for our specific installation. I'd be delighted to hear of others' success or discouragement with the Banner pre-award, and any ideas about moving information from a different, but much more complete, preaward database to Banner.
