Banner ERP

Banner ERP, a product from Ellucian and available through the my.scranton portal, provides an interface to software applications needed to perform work within the administrative offices at the University.

Banner Admin is a fully integrated administrative solution that supports all campus constituents. It stores data entered through online forms into a relational database. A relational database connects data stored in multiple tables to create a complete record. The specific information displayed on a specific form depends on your security level and on the context in which you are using the data.

Employee Applications is an interface to additional processes and reports that augment the Banner system. Many of the reports available through Employee Applications have been developed in Argos, which is a third party reporting tool by Evisions.
