AdminImages, SMU’s document retention tool, will soon be undergoing major maintenance in two weeks time.
An outage has been scheduled to begin at 5 PM Friday, June 21 and will continue until the early morning of Monday, June 23. During this period, document scanning, viewing, and workflows will be unavailable. This outage allows OIT to upgrade AdminImages to the newset version of Perceptive Content, the underlying software that powers the service. This upgrade will enable a new web-based interface called Experience, which can be used in multiple browsers and will not require Java like WebNow. WebNow and all other features of AdminImages will remain unchanged after this upgrade. If you have any questions regarding this outage, let us know at help@smu.edu or 214-768-HELP.
In addition to the employee directory that was recently published, the University now has added a new mobile-friendly web page for the departmental directory.
In preparation for the upcoming deployment of the new phone system based upon Skype for Business, OIT will soon be uploading photos of all employees from the ID Card Services office into the new system. This means that your ID card photo will now be visible in Skype for Business, as well as other internal Microsoft services and programs like Outlook and SharePoint.
