Enterprise Resource Planning (Banner)

Banner contains the university's system of record for alumni, employee, financial, and student information. 

• Murphy Online is the online webpage for faculty, staff, students, and alumni to see their grades, personal information, tax documents, and more. 
• Banner Admin (INB) is the software used by university's department staff to manage the information within the system.

All St. Thomas members receive automatic access to Murphy Online when they become a student or employee at the university.
