AppWorx Quick-Start Guide

Introduction

Welcome to the AppWorx getting started page. This page will help you get started using AppWorx, our Banner job submission replacement application. AppWorx will run banner jobs instead of using the dated GUAPCTL screen within Banner. As we move off of VMS and on to our new Linux platform, the Administrative Systems group within Information Services will be migrating all Banner GUAPCTL jobs to AppWorx.
