The Banner HR System is an ERP application accessible from the Genie Portal with a valid employee ID and password. The application supports the information needs of Human Resources (HR), Payroll, Employee Services, Benefits, and Management functions within the university. It merges resource management activities into standardized categories, folders, sub folders, and topics. The linkage of its payroll and human resource activities in the HR System makes the software application both rigid and flexible for processing personnel actions.
HRIS provides functional support and troubleshooting for core users of the system, to include HR and Payroll staff. We provide reporting support, training on various modules, and customization and configuration of the system to support the needs of the HR Teams. We also communicate with employees, retirees and prospective employees/applicants so they understand all that UNCG Human Resources has to offer.
