Monday, Oct 10th at 4:15 AM until 1PM is a scheduled information system outage for the Student Information System (Jenzabar J1). myEMU will be unavailable for a shorter period from 4:30 AM until 10 AM. EMU will be upgrading Jenzabar One and myEMU. J1 will be unavailable during this time.

This outage is for J1 and myEMU. EMU payment processing (CashNET) is dependent on J1 and myEMU and will be down during the J1 outage. PowerFAIDS interface to J1 will not work during the upgrade. Other systems should not be affected.

If you use the J1 client, please quit the client before you leave work on Friday. If the client is running during the upgrade, you may need to restart your computer after the upgrade for J1 to work correctly.

We are upgrading from Jenzabar 2021.3 to 2022.1 to fix bugs affecting registration and the business office.
