SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT:

Given the current economic situation, it has been advised that the Early ETF process be delayed.  The time frame for this delay is unknown.  However, we have requested Academic Affairs determine the departmental distribution of the division's ETF allocation for 2009-10 and share this information with the departments receiving allocations, Accounting Services and the Budget Office.  We request that the departments continue to prepare equipment lists with back-up information so that we can proceed with purchasing as soon as approval is granted. We recommend that departments differentiate equipment that could be purchased during the Early process if the delay is short enough to still take advantage of the Early Purchase process.

• The Finance & Administrative Certificate Training (FACT) is an advanced training class for staff members who are routinely involved with financial and administrative procedures. Please click heres for more information.

• Finance System Unavailability   –   In order to complete the nightly process and have the system available for users at 6:00 am, a dedicated amount of time is needed to perform some of our processes. These are associated with performance issues related to budget checking, posting transactions, procurement module processing, system exports and back ups. After reviewing system usage of our customers, we found that the heaviest usage of the system was between 6:30 am and 6:30 pm. Therefore, the Finance System will be unavailable from 7:30pm and 10:30 pm each night in order to perform these processes. We have also recently adopted Sunday morning maintenance between 5am-noon. Users will have the ability to run their nVision Monthly Summary Reports, however, the monthly detail reports and GL activity reports can not be run during this time frame. To ensure the availability of the Finance System, it is recommended you check with the helpdesk x83555 or the JMU computing alerts page located at "www.jmu.edu/computing/" if you have plans to work any given weekend or "off hours".
