Admin Pages Now Available to Budget Users

As of May 4, Admin Pages are now available to all Budget users. This builds on the March 16 rollout to Finance users and is another step forward in moving to Banner 9.

Admin Pages offer a more modern, web-based experience that makes it easier to complete your work. With improved navigation, search, and overall usability, you can find what you need faster and work more efficiently—without relying on the older INB system.

If you’re a Budget user, now is a great time to start using Admin Pages in your day-to-day work and get comfortable with the new interface.

What you should do next:

  • Log in to Banner and access Admin Pages
  • Start using them for your regular tasks
  • Check out available resources and training materials if you need support

Stay tuned for more updates over the next couple of week!


March 16 update:

What are Banner Admin Pages?

Banner Admin Pages are the modern web-based interface for McGill’s Banner administrative systems. The latest version of Banner, these Admin Pages introduce an improved user experience while preserving business processes.

They replace the legacy Banner INB (Internet Native Banner) forms and provide a more intuitive, streamlined way to access Banner functions through a secure browser environment — without the need for special software or remote desktop connections.

Admin Pages support key administrative activities across the University, including:

  • Financial transactions and reporting

  • Human resources processes

  • Student information management

  • Institutional data administration

5 boxes in line in a row, one for Finance, Budget, AR, Student Information and Student Aid.

It's important to note that both systems will be available during this transition. INB form users will be contacted when their individual forms are scheduled for upgrade.

Why the move to Admin Pages?

Banner Admin Pages are part of McGill’s modernization initiative. Compared to INB, they offer:

  • A cleaner, more user-friendly interface

  • Improved performance

  • Better accessibility

  • Reduced technical requirements

  • Simplified access from McGill-managed devices

As McGill continues to transition away from INB, Admin Pages will become the primary way users interact with Banner systems.
