Upgrade and downtime for accounting systems
at UiB
In collaboration with UiO
and NTNU, UiB is working with upgrading the Oracle accounting system. This is a significant upgrade which is
important in order to ensure support and security in the system. The upgrade means that the Oracle accounting
system will be unavailable for a period prior to the production date. The
system will be down as of Thursday February 13 12.00 and according to the
plan, will be ready for use by Monday February 24. For employees this has the following
consequences: • The
procurement system (Basware PM) will be available,
but new vendors will not be added • As
of Monday February 17 until Friday February 23 accounting reports cannot be
printed out • Incoming
bills cannot be processed from 13.2 until 19.2. • Payments
cannot be executed. Last possible payment date before the downtime is on
February 7 for foreign payments, and Monday February 10 for domestic
payments. First possible date to execute domestic payments is on Tuesday,
February 25 and Wednesday February 26 for foreign payments • Outgoing
bills cannot be created • The
project module will be unavailable Payment of salaries will continue normally. Horizon Lecture

Henrik Glenner, Marine Biodiversity, Department of Biology,

International Centre for Marine Molecular Biology, UiB: Friday February 20 at 18:00, Egget, Studentsenteret. Registration in Cristin
The deadline, February 15, is approaching
for all who would like to register their achievements from last year in Cristin
where one has to sign in as
UiB-employee. In addition to scientific articles, one can register newspaper articles,debates, dissemination

several authors from UiB, the first author has the responsibility of
registering the relevant data. Åpent møte i Norges Tekniske Vitenskapsakademi
