BDMS Overview
Access BDMS at https://xtender-web.nmsu.edu/wx/ using Internet Explorer for full
functionality.
Banner Document Management Suite is an imaging system that links with the Banner database
to index documents with Banner data. Once a document is imaged (scanned or uploaded), it is
indexed with data from Banner corresponding to the application it is being stored in. Doing this
links the image with Banner so that documents in BDMS can be retrieved with a click in Banner.
BDMS applications are much like file cabinets. There are applications for Student, Finance, HR,
Financial Aid and Advancement.
Documents imaged into BDMS have a Document Type which is similar to a file folder within a
cabinet. The applications and document types allow records to be stored in a similar fashion as
they would be in physical filing cabinets. This scheme also allows for almost instantaneous
retrieval of the imaged documents.
Requirements for Scanning, Indexing and Destruction in BDMS
In order to be able to store official NMSU records into BDMS you must Verify the Record after
scanning and indexing. This means:
You are verifying the quality of the document.
o Does it look as good as the original or pretty close?
o Is the required detail readable?
If you are unable to read any of the pages in the document, or the answer is “no” to any of the
above, you can adjust the scanner settings, re-scan or load the page(s), then delete the bad
page(s).
Verifying is important because the scanned copy or document in BDMS will become the official
record.
After you have verified the document(s), you can follow the RMR Destruction process because
BDMS is certified by the New Mexico Commission of Public Records to store document
images.

Business Rules
A scanned or electronic document is not considered the “official copy” until it is
verified and indexed in BDMS.
You must attend the FSA-RMR Information and Bridge Session and then sign a
Responsibilities for Use form before you are given access to BDMS.

Terminology
Annotation - An annotation is a note or a shape added to a document or batch page, typically to
focus attention on a particular part of the page. Users can use annotations to comment on the
contents of a page, block areas of the page from view, or highlight important information. When
a user creates an annotation, it is associated with the BDMS document page it is created on. The
types of annotations available include text, highlighting, lines, arrows, shapes, and rubber
stamps.
Append - Attach one or more pages to the document.
Application - A BDMS application is an index-driven data storage structure where documents
can be stored and retrieved.
Authentication - Authentication requires all users to enter a valid user name and password to
access software modules.
Document - A document is a page or group of pages stored in an application (storage cabinet)
and identified by index information. Each page of a document is comprised of a single object
such as a scanned image file or a word processing document. To create a new document, users
add an object to an application and attach index information to it. Subsequent objects can be
added as additional pages of the same document.
Query – Process used to look up data. Different operators may be used (=, >, <, <>, >=, <=,
etc.) to limit the search. Users can use operators to combine index words or text strings into a
single expression. For example in the ID index field enter, Expression: > 800012345.
Index - A BDMS index contains a group of fields where descriptive information pertaining to
documents can be stored. The index is how documents are retrieved or looked up.
Page - The word "page" typically implies a single entity. Since BDMS supports multiple object
types, the term “page” is redefined within BDMS to mean a single object. A page could also be,
for example, a single scanned image, a 30-minute video clip, or an audio recording. Each page of
a document has the same index record attached.
Redaction - A redaction is a filled and opaque annotation shape, which can be used to secure or
hide portions of image and text document pages. Users can apply redaction to all available
shapes: lines, freehand lines, arrows, rectangles, rounded rectangles, and ovals. When applied,
the area of the page behind the redaction is not visible.
Wildcard - A single asterisk (*) is used as a wildcard in the search value criteria to represent one
or more characters. For example, in the ID index field enter *012345 instead of 800012345.

Accessing BDMS from Banner
Once you are in the Banner 9 Admin pages and have navigated to the appropriate page, you will
be able to access BDMS to view documents. However, if you are scanning or
loading/uploading documents, you must use Internet Explorer for full functionality.
On some Banner pages the top section (key block) of the page must be selected to access BDMS.
This varies depending on the Banner page.
1. Go to https://my.NMSU.edu. Enter your Username and Passphrase.
2. Click Sign In.

5. The two icons on the top right are for BDMS. Use the RETRIEVE
icon to display a document from BDMS.
Note: If you click RETRIEVE and no documents are found, repeat your query directly in BDMS
following the steps to Query for a Document starting on page 9. Use the minimum number of
Index Fields to get the broadest search possible.
Note: Even though there is an +ADD icon you must use Internet Explorer for
full functionality of BDMS when adding documents.
Note: The screen above is only a representation. Your screen may look different depending on
the form you use.
The window that displays when the BDMS icon is selected depends upon:
A. If there are documents indexed (attached) to the Banner record. B. If there are documents attached, do multiple Document Types exist?

BDMS will open in a new browser window.
Although Chrome is the recommended browser for Banner 9, the
functionality in BDMS is limited when you use Chrome and you
cannot scan. Therefore, use Chrome only to VIEW documents. To
ADD documents, open BDMS directly using Internet Explorer with
this URL: https://xtender-web.nmsu.edu/wx/

Query for a Document
You may query from a Banner page and click the RETRIEVE icon or you may
query directly in BDMS. The Query Criteria window allows you to find documents using a
variety of filter criteria based on the indexes associated with the BDMS application and
document.
1. Query to search for a document using any of the Index Name fields.
2. Index Name fields can be selected or deselected to show on your results screen by
clicking on the Show check boxes by each Index Name.
3. A wildcard * may be used alone or with any portion of the word.
4. Click Submit after choosing the desired Search Value(s).

Appendices
Appendix I: Preparation of Documents for Scanning
It is important to prepare your documents for scanning. This will minimize tears, jams, and
misfeeds.
1. Remove all staples and paper clips.
2. Tape down all sides of Post It Notes.
3. Receipts, envelopes and any paper smaller than 8.5” by 9” may be taped to an 8.5” by
11” sheet of paper to eliminate the need to reset the paper guides.
4. Any pages that are torn should be copied before being scanned.
