Jaspersoft

JasperSoft is being transitioned to Argos 

This site will provide updates regarding the highly anticipated release of ARGOS software for Student & Academic reporting here at Yale. Please check out About Argos to learn more.  

What to Expect: 

  • Transitioning from Jaspersoft to Argos: Our IT development team is actively building Argos. We are committed to delivering a robust and reliable product and will communicate the official release date for each department as soon as it is confirmed. Current Jaspersoft users will be granted access to Argos on their release date. Their access will mirror their Jaspersoft permissions. 

  • Migrating Jaspersoft reports to Argos: Our IT development team is actively converting Jaspersoft reports to Argos. You will be able access and gather the same information in Argos as you did in Jaspersoft.  

  • Will Argos functionality be similar to Jaspersoft? The look and feel will change. The goal of transitioning to Argos is to provide a better user experience and enhanced capabilities. Argos has robust querying functionality and specializes in Banner Operational Reporting.  

  • Will I still have access to Jaspersoft after Argos Go-live? Yes, you will still have access to both systems. However, Jaspersoft will be decommissioned June 31, 2025, and will lose access then. 

  • Training Sessions: We recognize the importance of comprehensive training to ensure everyone can fully leverage the new reporting features of ARGOS. We are in the process of coordinating training sessions for all departments affected. These sessions will be designed to provide hands-on experience and answer any questions. Multiple dates and times will be offered to departments during the transition, and additional training sessions will be offered throughout the year.  

  • Office Hours & Support: Weekly drop-in office hours will be offered or can be scheduled directly with a SIS Reporting team member.  New user orientations can also be scheduled.  

All Jaspersoft users will be transitioned to Argos by April 2025. Users will be notified 30 days prior to their Argos go-live date. 

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or need additional information by emailing report.sis@yale.edu.
