Yesterday, our EDI contractor, Cheryl Kolbe, was here to install and set up our newly purchased EDI.Smart software. The install and setup went very smoothly and it is now installed on ts5. We decided to put it there so, with the purchase of a connection, we can have anyone else in Admissions or the Registrars to be able to access the software, which will need to happen on occasion. Where we ran into issues is when we were attempting to run the shrediy process on woutst. Once a transcript request was submitted through banner (on woutst), shrediy was run and produced the one line of header and the final line, no data. We came to the conclusion that woutst was not running something we needed (job submission) to be able to run this since we couldn't get a paper transcript out of it either. Today, Soukup and Brian helped me out and we now have woutst working correctly with output! Very exciting. Cherly is to come back on Thursday, and it would have been a wasted trip without getting this output. I'm very happy we're back on track.
I've also modified our shrediy.pc file and will have it uploaded back to woutst. This just changes layout only. I'll also need some assistance from the Banner team to help with a grade issue unique to Western. Pre-1994, we only gave grades A-F without plus or minus. Now, we also give plus and minus grades. This will change the grade qualifier when we send the transcript out.
