Linux TSRCBIL
I wrote a special print code that can be used for the billing program TSRCBIL (wp_hpbilling). This code embeds PCL codes into output file and tells the printer to print in portrait with 66 lines per page.

Linux migration sftp
I wrote two scripts this week that use sftp. These can be used as templates for other sftp jobs that we need. The scripts are located in I:\Staff\Banner_Information\Linux Migration\Oracle_scheduler_jobs. Look for cron_szasftp.shl and cron_szpsftp.shl. There's two batch files that go with the scripts (szasftp.cfg and szpsftp.cfg). These are used to automated the file transfers.

Degreeworks production
We now have a production instance for Degreeworks. We also upgraded to version 4.10. I applied all of the mods that I made in development to production and it seems to be working good so far.

Linux Migration - Special printing
I created a generic_script that we can use to create our own custom print settings (i.e. setting margins, lines per inch, characters per inch,etc). All we have to do is edit the script and set three variables (site_landscape_opts,form, and prntopt). After you create a special print format, the user just needs to type that code into the "special print" field in Banner INB and it will use those print options from the script.

Linux Migration
I updated my documentation for the linux migration. I saved all of the oracle scheduler jobs that I've completed so far in I:\Staff\Banner_Information\Linux Migration\Oracle_scheduler_jobs\wouupg_scheduler_jobs.sql. When we go to production, all I have to do is update the instance name and credentials and the jobs should work.

SZRFADP modification
I made some changes to the job submission SZRFADP so that Financial Aid can enter a start date and end date for students that dropped below 12 credit hours. Prior to this change, it returned students that dropped credits within three days of the term start date. You can leave these new parameters blank and it will continue to search within three days of the term start date.

Mod to baseline package sb_admissionsapplication
I made a modification to a baseline package sb_admissionsapplication because our local program uses this package to push new admits to Banner but it doesn't populate the level code of the student. The baseline package doesn't have a parameter for the level code so we can't assign it. I modified a function f_build_saradap_rec() in this package that looks at the p_data_origin code. If this code equals "ADM_APP" (came from our admissions app) than it will assign the level code "UG" to the student.

Degreeworks custom data element - PRIORDEGTERM
I added a new data element to Sure code today called PRIORDEGTERM that returns the highest undergraduate degree term code for a student.
I put a document in our I:\Staff\Banner_Information\Degreeworks folder that describes how to create a custom data element for Scribe.
