Creating a File of Fines and Fees Information Using Sierra PostgreSQL Queries to Transfer to the Campus' Banner Financial System Presentation uri icon

Description

  • When we were on Millennium, systems staff created an application that populated a database with uncollected fines and fees information. The application used this information to construct a monthly file to be sent to the campus Banner financial system. When we migrated to Sierra, we had access to our own database for the first time. As a result, we didn't need the difficult process we had been using. We connected straight to the database to get the information we needed, resulting in a process that was more efficient, accurate, and user friendly for Systems and Circulation staff. This is the session description that will be published in the conference program. Please be sure to indicate special audience type: public, academic, special, etc. The description can be 100 words maximum.
