Once we know more about the issue we will post an update. Thank you.

UPDATE 1/8/2024 3:00PM:

Workday identified issues with their Internet Service Provider, and are now using an alternate route which has corrected the outage. All systems are now operational.

ORIGINAL:

Our production Workday tenant is currently experiencing a service disruption. This is a nationwide outage, impacting multiple clients. Workday is aware of the issue and they are working at restoring the service. Thank you.

UPDATE 8:01AM 12/14/23:

Microsoft has deployed a short term fix that will allow downloads. They are expecting a full fix to be deployed by Friday. Users will need to reboot to ensure it is upgraded properly. You will see your computer display a restart required once the fix is deployed. If it does not resolve right away, please wait until Friday for it to be fully resolved.

UPDATE 2:25PM 12/13/23:

Other users have reported issues with different downloads not just Workday. However, Workday has posted a community wide announcement showing all tenants impacted with this same problem of downloads not completing. They are doing an investigation on their end currently to understand what might be going on. This does not seem to impact all users, and some report where it starts working after a reboot or retrying. Once we have a response from Workday from their investigation we will test and report back.

ORIGINAL:

Users are reporting issues with exporting Workday reports to excel. It is not all reports or users. Some users have switched browsers and it has worked. We have submitted a ticket with Workday to see if there is something wrong with our tenant. We will provide more information once we hear back from Workday.

Grademan is now working, we were able to identify and resolve the problem.

Our application that allows for changing grades (Grademan) is not operational at the moment. We are working to resolve the issue with this application. We continue to troubleshoot the problem, and will provide information as we work through the problem. Thank you and sorry for the inconvenience.

UPDATE 3:47PM: Our Ellucian Managed Services Provider restarted services and cleared some items for the service that they believe were causing the issues with the login times. For the past few hours the Banner Admin has been stable. We will continue monitoring.

ORIGINAL POST:

This week we have been experiencing issues with login times to Banner Admin, where when a user logs in, the SSO login page will continue to spin, eventually landing the user either in an active session or providing an error message such as a Login Denied.

This is happening inconsistently throughout the day, users are eventually able to login, once connected they don’t have further issues. In addition, Banner Self-Service works correctly during these times. We are working with Ellucian to try and determine the cause of the issue, but we are still researching as it is inconsistent.

We will be doing maintenance tonight to replace one of the application servers and then will determine if it alleviates the situation. We asked that users that are not able to login, wait 5 minutes and try again. We appreciate your understanding as we work to resolve these issues.
