If you already use Senior Systems applications but are new to the Cloud environment, there are several major changes for all users to be aware of:
Direct links to your Senior Systems site(s) will change.
If your school uses My BackPack, the link to your landing page will change.
If your school uses My BackPack for Online Admissions, the link to your Admissions landing page will change.
If your school uses My BackPack for Online Summer School Registration, the link to your Summer School landing page will change.
Any Dashboard links, including embedded links, will change.
Any Web Services links, including embedded links, will change.
Users should be aware of new file-saving procedures. Users logged into a server in the Cloud environment must understand that the 'My Documents' and 'Desktop' folders listed are NOT their local 'My Documents' and 'Desktop' folders. See How To Save Files for details.
Applications will launch MS Word in the Cloud, in conjunction with Mail Merge once you move to Senior Systems hosting. Ascendance applications will launch MS Word from the Cloud, not from the user's local machine, to create and save merge files. Users should be careful to save files in the correct location.
If your school uses the scheduling module, on the Scheduler tab in Administration Maintenance, change Directory Location to R:\Sched and click Install.
