Presenter
Andrew
Discussion
HR, Payroll, and IT all agreed that the Colleague software update could be installed in Colleague Live in early October (October 7 to be precise).
Item # 7:
Coltest Security
Presenter
Committee
Discussion
Although there was no information release on this topic, the security for the Colleague Test environment was recently changed in order to address an issue identified by the Auditors. The Colleague Test environment now is identical to the security setup in Colleague Live. For changes to Colleague Test security, requests should be sent to security @austincc.edu. There are concerns that testing changes in Colleague Test is now much more difficult as a result, and that the access requests have not been quickly acted upon. On the other hand, the Security group is trying to react speedily to update access changes on Colleague Test and that any delays are usually related to waiting for appropriate supervisory approval.
Item # 8:
