Jenzabar®
EX
Jenzabar® EX, formerly known as CMDS TEAMS Elite,
software is a comprehensive system utilizing a suite
of modules for the offices of Admissions, Academic
Records, Financial Aid, Development/Alumni, Student
Life, and Business Office Services. These modules
handle student information and tracking as the student
matriculates from inquiry to enrollment to graduation
and finally through their alumni years and fund-raising
efforts. Sybase-InfoMaker serves the report writing
functions for Jenzabar® EX. The dedicated database
server is now supporting 50 administrative users.
Administrative Server
The administrative server is a dual Intel PIII 866mhz
computer that operates under Microsoft's 2000 Server
Professional client/server operating system utilizing
Microsoft SQL 7.0 and provides an integrated, networked
system that can support users throughout the university
including users in our off-campus locations. Remote
sites access the administrative system through the
WAN and a Citrix server application. Sybase-SQL
Anywhere also runs on the administrative server
to operate the PowerFAIDS® financial aid software,
a CSS software service, that interfaces with Jenzabar®
EX.
