Abstract

The University of Michigan's Transcript Order Entry System (TOES) automates the transcript order and delivery process, allowing students and alumni to order transcripts remotely via the Web and have their transcripts delivered via EDI/SPEEDE to its destination on that same day. This paper discusses the creativity and teamwork required to create this system, the various technologies utilized to suppot the application, the rapid prototyping development philosophy employed, and various issues related to federal law, University policy, data security, and data integrity.
