Store administrative support staff for personnel #77

Open ryanbungard opened 7 years ago

ryanbungard commented 7 years ago

The CSD, RI, and HCII sites list out administrative support staff for some faculty. I'm not aware of a campus system that maintains this information. Is there a central system? Should we have a way fof maintaining this information if there isn't?

There is no central store for this (and it is hit-and-miss for CSD, at the moment least as to whether it is complete yet or not). It is a manual process for each of the departments, I believe.

These are determined within department and distributed within department for additions/deletions/corrections. For example: We've just had 3 retirements since summer and I'm manually managing all of these dependencies between faculty and administrators within my directory. I don't yet have info from our business office regarding shifts in duties, new positions, etc.

Again, why are we trying to duplicate in another place things that can get out of sync instead of pushing people from the SCS site to the sites that maintain the details?
