Database Connectivity) drivers to
connect to SCT Banner® Tables.
 Users install ODBC drivers locally
via a network application.

 Desire greater flexibility to sort
 Export data to Excel
 Merge data to Word or e-mail
 Use Banner Views created by SGHE

Creating Student Invoices
All invoices use the Bill Date to determine
what invoice type should be created (1st
notice, 2nd notice, etc.)
 Initial query is executed and data is
compiled in a “Make-Table” – Invoice
Worksheet

 Data can be changed – not linked to Banner
When initial query is executed – pop-up
prompts will be displayed requesting the
bill dates.
 Once data is verified – invoices can be
created
