When attempting to change the assigned advisors to the generic advisor I’ve ran into difficulties attempting to remove the current advisor. I was using the instructions you had given me the last time I hit a bump, but they just were not working. BANNER wasn’t allowing me the option to click the button in the middle of the screen to end the current advisor. The other centers might be having similar issues.

Subject: [Advising] Advisor Type in SGAADVR

In reviewing the latest Generic Advisor report that gets generated every week, I notice that there are still several instances where the assigned generic advisor doesn’t match the Advisor Type.  For example, a student might be assigned to Student Placement Advising but be assigned to the EGR or SOSC Advisor Type, or even no Advisor Type at all.  There are a handful of instances of this in most advising centers.  So a reminder: when assigning a student to a generic advisor in SGAADVR, please make sure to assign an Advisor Type that matches the generic advisor.  Thanks!
