Cursor Issue
There is sometimes a defect with Banner 9 in which the cursor disappears from the text box while typing. The cursor intermittently loses focus while the user is entering data into any input field. When entering a character, the cursor disappears and the user must use the mouse to select the field and continue typing.

Known Issue: "Nothing Happens When I Click This Button"
A problem that may be encountered in Banner 9 will prevent you from receiving any feedback when interacting with the interface. If you get this issue, check around for pop-up blocking issues. An alert to allow pop ups from "banner-app12.manhattan.edu" should be showing on the screen. This domain is Banner Production, so it is safe and should be allowed to produce pop ups.

An update to the Banner Forms interface was applied on Saturday 7/22. ITS will have extra support resources dedicated to "Banner 9" questions starting Monday 7/24. While the update only affects the user interface (UI) to Banner Forms, there are some minor navigation changes and enhancements - most notably "Application Navigator" which now allows you to search for forms rather than remembering the form name. No data is being changed as a result of the update and functional processes are expected to remain the same as "Banner 8".
Ellucian (Banner vendor) has also been made aware of the update and will have "functional" support personnel available to any offices with questions about Banner 9. Banner users are encouraged to make use of the Banner 9 documentation below as well as Ellucian support resources (in addition to ITS). In addition to attending the campus Workshop Sessions (above), some campus offices have already worked with Ellucian support to dive deeper into Banner 9 including taking advantage of new navigation shortcuts.
