  6. New Policies

  7. sunapsis® Release Policy • Scope • sunapsis® end-users and technical contacts both at client institutions as well as Indiana University are affected by this policy. • Reason for Policy • This policy sets a standard for new releases to include a high level of transparency for sunapsis® users as well as a sustainable workflow for the UA-OIS.

  8. sunapsis® Release Policy Statement The UA-OIS will regularly release tested and documented upgrades of sunapsis® to clients. Indiana University end-users will be notified of upgrades to the system prior to new features and enhancements being moved to production and will be the initial test group for a new release.  Primary communication to external clients of new features and enhancements included in an upcoming release will be during our annual user’s conference where an early-adopters group will be formed to test a beta version prior to sending a final release to all client institutions.  Release schedules will only be interrupted when a change is required as the result of a change in federal regulation. Ongoing communication about timeframes, features, and enhancements in regards to a release, both internally at IU and externally to client schools, will be managed by the sunapsis® Business Manager.

  10. sunapsis® End-of-life Policy • Scope • sunapsis® end-users and technical contacts both at client institutions as well as Indiana University are affected by this policy. • Reason for Policy • The development of sunapsis® is continually evolving. These innovations mean that UA-OIS periodically transitions away from distributing or servicing certain versions of sunapsis®.

  11. sunapsis® End-of-life Policy Statement This policy outlines how the UA-OIS handles support for versions of sunapsis® that have been discontinued. The UA-OIS will issue an end-of-life notice two fiscal years before support of a particular version of sunapsis® is discontinued.
