February 6, 2012: At the beginning of January, the first pass of data from Datatel Colleague to Jenzabar EX was completed. A data pass involves converting our existing Datatel Colleague data into the Jenzabar EX data structure. Relevant team members met with the Jenzabar consultant on January 12 and 13 to start to validate, or review, the data. Most data was converted smoothly. A few issues were identified that will be corrected prior to the second pass of data from Datatel Colleague to Jenzabar EX. This second pass of data is currently scheduled for the beginning of April. The Beloit Jenzabar project team will continue to review and check data all the way up until “go live” in July 2012.
Jenzabar consultants will be on site from Feburary 13th through March 2nd for what Jenzabar calls, Training Trip 3. The goal of this trip is to provide basic daily operations training for college staff who will enter information into and run daily procedures with EX. During the week of February 13th, the Financial Aid office will officially “go live” with their new software, PowerFAIDS. PowerFAIDS will make financial aid packaging and awarding a more streamlined process. The Financial Aid office will begin processing financial aid applications using the new software immediately following this training trip.
