Ever since BU made the push to Banner, we’ve found ourselves not really adding new features to BUSIPlus, but rather fixing all the features that broke. One of these was the old Copy Schedule from BUSI feature, where you could log into BUSI, copy your schedule there, paste it into BUSIPlus, and have one of our schedules made for you instantly. (For the curious, this was actually the very first tool built for BUSIPlus, all the way back in April 2005.)
We’ve finally fixed the backend of this to be compatible with the new BU Brain output. We have tested this on a variety of inputs, and you can paste a bunch of things into the importer:
- Just type in the CRNs, separating them with either spaces or line returns
- Copy the Student Detail Schedule (either normal view or printer-friendly view)
- Copy the Week at a Glance text
Let us know what you think. Oh, and don’t worry – we know we still have a bunch of places where CRNs need to be integrated (the schedule viewer being the most notable). We’re working on getting this in place in the near future, so sit tight! If you have other ideas for CRN integration, make sure to let us know.
