How to Login to FIS 7.0

NOTE: Instructions below are effective beginning Tuesday, 2/19/2008.

  1. Open a browser window.

  2. Navigate to fis.ucsc.edu

  3. Click on the FIS icon (Banana Slug picture.)



  4. BE PATIENT! The first time you connect to FIS Banner 7, many small configuration files need to be initialized on your workstation. This may take a minute or more.

  5. A webpage with a Stop Sign image will appear. As in FIS Banner 6, This webpage is a “placeholder” for your FIS session. It must stay open for the duration of your FIS session. If it is closed, your FIS session will close as well.

  6. A “Warning – Security” window may appear confirming whether you want to run the application.



  7. This message appears because Oracle Corporation is not in the “Trusted Publisher” list on your workstation.

    PC Users: Click the checkbox adjacent to “Always trust content from this publisher, then click the Run button.

    Mac Users: Click the “Show Certificate” button, then click the checkbox adjacent to “Always trust these certificates.”

  8. In a few seconds, another window will open containing a Logon box prompting for Username, Password and Database.



  9. IF THE LOGON BOX DOES NOT APPEAR after 90 seconds or so, there may be a problem with your Java Plug-in or Browser configuration. Please review those instructions (links at left); contact us at fis_probs@ucsc.edu if the problem continues after you've reviewed your settings.

  10. Enter your Username then press TAB to advance to the Password field.

  11. Enter your confidential password.

  12. Do NOT update the Database field; it should read BPRD.

  13. Click the Connect button.

  14. If you receive the error: “ORA-1017: invalid username/password; logon denied”, click OK and try again. If the error persists, contact us at fis_probs@ucsc.edu for assistance.

  15. Once your username and password have been authenticated, the FIS Banner 7 main menu will appear.:



  16. If the main menu does not appear, or if you receive any type of error message, please contact us at fis_probs@ucsc.edu for assistance.
