There’s a summer IT Forum coming up about Footprints, the software that IR uses to track service calls to the Technology Support Center.  I’ll be there and will post any updates of interest to faculty – but all are welcome to attend.

Here’s the announcement and registration info, as posted to the my.scranton portal:

Summer IT Forum
July 25th, 2011
BRN 509
11:30 am – 1:00 pm

Footprints Client View
The next IT Forum will highlight the use of Footprints from the view of the University Community. FootPrints is a ticket tracking system utilized by the University of Scranton Planning and Information Resources (PIR) Division, for information technology (IT) requests. It tracks IT service tickets and provides communication among PIR departments and our customers. Students, staff and faculty can submit a ticket to request assistance with an IT-related problem or check on the status of a ticket. They can also search through knowledge base articles that have been submitted by IT support staff on a variety of issues. Faculty and Staff can also use Footprints to submit Change Management requests (modification to existing applications, new applications, or report / query requests) and to request special IT Services (such as PC Setups, VOIP, Port Changes, RoyalDrive, etc).

Presenters: Jason Wimmer, of IT Development and Applications and Jim Franceschelli, Director IT Services

All members of our community are encouraged to attend. Lunch will be served however registration is required. Registration is now on the portal, under University Links-Events/Facilities, select IT Services Training and Event Registration.
