  4. What is Banner Xtender? • Banner XtenderSolutions is the only imaging and document management solution suite that launches documents and content directly from Banner (SungardHE website) • It’s a document management system that is integrated with Banner

  5. Basic Concepts • Think of an imaging system as a set of “electronic filing cabinets” • ApplicationXtender uses a data hierarchy to organize stored data • The highest level of organization in AX is the application • The next level of organization in AX is the document • The last level in the AX data hierarchy is the page and page version

  6. Basic Concepts Page Document Application

  7. Basic Concepts • WebXtender (WX) – Main user interface into Xtender • Application Generator (AppGen) – Interface used to create and maintain users, applications and authorizations • Applications – It’s the “electronic drawer” • Delivered baseline applications • Can modify delivered applications or create new ones (We created a STUDENTS application because the baseline application, B-S-ID had required fields we did not want to use)

  13. Basic concepts • Indexing • Indexes allow you to efficiently organize and search through stored documents • Indexes consist of one or more fields where descriptive information pertaining to documents is stored. • The information in these fields is used to retrieve specific documents from AX.

  14. Indexing • Key Reference Indexing • Enter data into one primary, or key, index field. When you press [Tab], WX populates the remaining index fields with data from the record in the Key Reference table that corresponds to the key index field value • Key Reference Table is populated by Banner • Stand alone applications (not integrated with Banner) uses manual indexing

  16. Basic Concepts • Document Retrieval • WebXtender provides a variety of search and retrieval methods to allow you to perform queries to retrieve a specific set of documents • Search by Index, Search by Wildcard, Search by List of Values, etc. • From a Banner Form
