Faculty and Advisor Access Dates

This section is used to set up the date range used to limit faculty member and advisor access to the Banner Faculty and Advisor Self-Service main menu and control which terms are displayed for faculty and advisors in the Self-Service Select a Term pulldown list.

Faculty members and advisors will have access to the Banner Faculty and Advisor Self-Service main menu when one of two conditions exists: when the current date does not fall within any date range for any term and the person has an active status for any term on the Faculty/Advisor Information (SIAINST) page, or when the current date does fall within a date range and the person has an active status for the term on SIAINST. The term date rules use start and end dates.

All terms are displayed in the Self-Service Select a Term pulldown list when no date ranges have been defined on SOATERM, the person is active on SIAINST for the term, and the Faculty and Advisor Controls have been set on SOATERM.

When a date range is set up here, the Self-Service main menu for faculty members and advisors will only be displayed for terms where the current date falls within the defined date range. A term is displayed in the term selection list when no dates exist for a term, and the faculty member has an active status. A term will not be displayed when the current date does not fall into a date range set up for access or when the faculty member is inactive for the term.

Unique term records can exist, such as:

Term	Start	End	Menu	Term Selection
200443	01-JAN-2008	30-JUN-2008	Checked	Unchecked
200443	01-AUG-2008	31-AUG-2008	Unchecked	Checked

But date ranges cannot overlap within the term for the menu access or for the term selection list.
