  2. Step 6 What is Banner? Banner is the software system that contains the database of student information. It’s a tool that will benefit you as you seek to hire and employ student workers. It gives you information at your fingertips. Rather than having to contact the Student Financial Aid Office (SFAO) to get information – along with every other person on campus trying to hire student employees – you can use Banner to get the information you need. How to learn to use Banner If you do not currently use Banner and are not familiar with it, you will need to take the “Mini-Banner: Accessing and Understanding” section of this tutorial. This will provide you with just the training necessary to get Banner access and to hire student employees. For more extensive training, please check with ITS for seminars. Want to know more? If you would like more extensive Banner training you may sign up for courses through the ITS website at http://its.baylor.edu/pod_reg/MyDev.aspx or by following this path: Baylor.edu Faculty/Staff Training & Development Professional Development Seminars

  3. Step 6 What is “work approval”? When you decide which student you want to hire, you complete and submit a “student worker request” form. This signals the SFAO to begin the processing to (a) determine whether or not that student is eligible for work-study funds, and (b) to “create” your job in the Banner system. Job creation by SFAO may take a few days, so please plan accordingly. “Work approval”means that the student is eligible, and the processing is complete. Once the processing is complete, the student may begin working – but not before. You must check for work approval through the Banner system before allowing a student to begin work!

  4. Step 6 What is RJASEAR? RJASEAR is the form, or screen, in Banner you will use to look up work approval information. Caution! Not all the information contained in Banner forms, including RJASEAR, is relevant to the work-study program. Don’t be confused by the extra information. Focus on the fields highlighted in this tutorial. Remember: Job creation by SFAO may take a few days, so please plan accordingly. You must check for work approval through the Banner system before allowing a student to begin work.

  5. Step 6 What is RJASEAR? There are two main parts or “blocks” on the RJASEAR form that you will use when checking for work approval: the “top block” and the “authorizations block.” Top block – you will use the top block to pull up the record of the student whom you wish to hire. The authorizations block – This block contains the authorization information about all the work-study jobs the student in question has held on campus during the academic year you selected. If the student has held other work-study jobs before the one for which you are hiring, you may need to scroll within the authorizations block to find the information about your position. Tip: Use the scroll bar to see more jobs. Yours may not be first!

  6. Step 6 • To check for work approval using the Banner system, you will do the following: • Log on to Banner • Go to the RJASEAR form • Pull up the record for the student you wish to hire • Locate your position in the “authorizations” block • Check the “status” field for the correct authorization code • Then, you may wish to exit RJASEAR. • This tutorial will walk you through this process.

  7. Step 6 1. Log on to Banner 1 To log on to Banner: 1. Open your internet browser and type in www.baylor.edu/banner. Wait for the cover Screen of Java Microsystems to load. 2. Enter your USERNAME and password. (Remember: these are not the same as your Bear ID and password). Leave the “Database” field blank. 3.

  10. Step 6 3. Pull up the record for the student whom you wish to hire. Next block to populate form Enter the year when you will be employing the student. For example for 2010-2011, you would enter 1011 (no dashes, spaces, hyphens or slash marks). Be sure you have the correct year in this field. Enter the student’s ID number here: for example 888888888 (no dashes, spaces, hyphens or slash marks). Once you fill out the ID number, the student’s name will appear in this field. Be sure you have the correct student’s name in the field before you proceed. Hint:Once you enter the ID number it is not necessary to hit they “enter” key. The name field will populate automatically.

  11. Step 6 4. Locate your position in the Authorizations block on the RJASEAR screen. Scroll down, if necessary, to locate your position. You will recognize your position by seeing your department number in the placement field. Department number – each department that has used student employees in the past has been assigned a department number. It is a truncated version of your TRAX account number. In the position field you will see the truncated version of your department number plus the letter F, T, C or U. WTE Queue number – If your department uses different approvers for different positions, you may need to find the approver’s queue number in the placement field instead of the department number. Placement field - look for department number or WTE queue number here. Position field – look for department number plus an F, T, C or U here. HINT: If you do not know your department number or queue number, call the Payroll Office (ext. 2217).

  12. Step 6 5. Check the “status” field for the correct authorization code. Once you have located your position, you need to check the status field for authorization. If the student has been approved for work, the status field will contain one of the codes listed below. If this screen only show “AUTH” in the status field and dates in the “Authorization:” fields, this DOES NOT mean that the student is authorized to work. Acceptable Codes: Status Field: Check for authorization code here.
