Race/Ethnicity Survey

There's a new race/ethnicity survey in Banner 8. It pops up the survey after the person logs into self service. Two dates need to be set in GTVSDAX (start date and end date). The Banner team has documentation on how to set this up. The package is BWGKOMRE.

Banner Upgrade and Letter Generation mod

Admissions told me it was ok to remove the letter generation mod for Banner 8. This will save me a ton of time and 4 mods I don't need to do before next week. This mod added a special underline code (so that words could be underlined when they printed). There's ways to work around it by doing a mail merge in Word.

Scarf - First time freshman

Scarf uses a student's admit code and admit term to determine if a student is a first time freshman. The only exception is students with an A4 admit code. The time between high school graduation and admit term needs to be less than 3 months for them to be considered first time freshman.

These are the charts that I think would be useful for our banner reports (web based ones).


  • 3D Donut Chart

  • 2D Pie Chart

  • Column & Bar Chart

  • Chart with Scroller
