CNS houses and runs the central-site hardware and systems software to support major University of Florida administrative systems. Major systems supported include:
PeopleSoft. CNS provides operational support for UF’s Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) solution, which powers the university’s Human Resources, Financial, and Payroll Systems. See http://my.ufl.edu .
FACTS. Florida Academic Counseling and Tracking for Students: Florida’s official online student advising system is housed at CNS. High school students, college students, parents, and counselors can use the services provided on this Website to help plan and track educational progress in Florida. FACTS permits online transfer of records and transcripts among Florida’s educational districts and institutions. See http://facts.org .
Imaging. Imaging Services provides the ability to capture, store, manage, retrieve, and route documentation in a secure electronic manner. With document imaging paper documents, photos, and graphics can be scanned and saved as images, organized into folders, linked to business applications, and retrieved by users. See www.it.ufl.edu/projects/imaging
Database Support. IBM’s DB2 is CNS’s primary database-management system. CNS also provides MySQL database servers for those services that require it. See http://open-systems.ufl.edu/services/mysql and http://open-systems.ufl.edu/services/db2 .
The Customer Information Control System (CICS) is an interactive trans- action-processing system, which provides critical transaction processing and online access to critical data. Systems which currently run under CICS at CNS include FACTS, ISIS, and SASS, among others. For more information on CICS, see http://cics.ufl.edu .
Student Records. From application for admission to registration, graduation and beyond, CNS systems store, process, and protect UF’s core mission-critical data. See www.registrar.ufl.edu .
ISIS. ISIS is the Integrated Student Information System. It incorporates registration and other functions and offers additional information systems, such as the academic advising system. See www.admissions.ufl.edu/aboutisis.html .
SASS. Students’ academic progress is monitored by a computer program called the Student Academic Support System (SASS). Approximately six weeks into Fall and Spring Semesters, a copy of each student’s SASS audit, also known as a Tracking audit, is printed and placed in each student’s academic folder. Each student can and should regularly check their own SASS audit report through the Integrated Student Information System (ISIS) at www.isis.ufl.edu .
Student Financial Affairs. CICS at CNS runs data processing, storage, and security for students’ and parents’ confidential financial data. See www.sfa.ufl.edu .
