The process Emporia State University uses to reduce the number of duplicate records created in Banner and to reduce the number of incorrect records being updated. This session will be a combination of functional and technical. We will review our common matching rules, how we keep track of the tape loads (whats waiting to be loaded, the order in which the loads should be accomplished and which loads are in progress or finished), the steps taken for each load, and the Banner jobs Emporia State created. Emporia State uses Excel spreadsheets, Banner Procedures, CleanAddress, COGNOS, Access (for our most troublesome loads), and the Banner Tape Load process as we work toward cleaner data loads.
