What if we need to see additional information about students?

In addition to a student’s basic information – Name, Address, Phone Number, Preferred Name etc. – EDAS is importing other student data from Banenr to SARS. The current list of available Additional Information being imported from Banner is:

  • College 1

  • College 2

  • Major 1

  • Major 2

  • Preferred Pronoun

NOTE: If a student has not entered in Banner:

  • Preferred Name (displayed in SARS Anywhere on the Student Maintenance screen) or

  • Preferred Pronoun (displayed in SARS Anywhere on the Additional Information screen),

these fields will be blank. The student can update their contact information by logging in to myBama.

How to see the Additional Information

In SARS Anywhere, there’s not a field on the Student Maintenance screen where we can insert this data.

Instead, here are the three methods for seeing it:

  1. From THE GRID

    1. In SARS Anywhere, open the Quick Links menu (at the top right of the toolbar)

    2. Select Additional Information

      Quick Links menu in SARS Anywhere
    3. In the Additional Information screen, find the student using either their CWID or Name
      NOTE: If you have access to multiple SARS Locations, choose the desired location from the drop-down menu at the top

  3. From the Student Maintenance screen
