Announcements
Finance 101There will not be any "no show" fees charged to department. As of September 1, 2013, updated Finance 101 Courses are available on Canvas. The Course information is posted on the Finance training web page. |
STAR TrainingDue to low response and number of campus users, STAR training will not be offered this summer. Any individual department or user desiring training or requiring assistance should contact iis.finance@jmu.edu or Ramona Stevens at steve2rj@jmu.edu and we will be more than happy to assist with your needs. |
Finance System UnavailabilityIn 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". |
