I blogged about this a few weeks ago - it turned out NOT to be a April Fools joke.

KLZ & Capita SIMS Web Parts
03 April 09 03:19 PM | plaj01 | with no comments

Just a quick note before the well earned long Easter break! We are currently working on fulfilling some prerequisites from Capita on getting the first stage of the SIMS Web Parts integrated on the system. Whilst there is no firm date on when we will launch them, I thought it be best to communicate that we are working on them!

Have a great Easter.

Which Version of Microsoft Office Should I be Purchasing?
03 April 09 03:01 PM | plaj01 | with no comments

Just a quick gentle reminder for any schools purchasing Office 2007.

EIS recommend you purchase either:

  • Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2007
  • Microsoft Office Enterprise 2007

These editions include software such as Microsoft Office Communicator 2007 R2 which is used on the KLZ for Instant Messaging and also Microsoft Office InfoPath 2007 whuch handily creates forms. Microsoft Office Groove 2007 is included in the Enterprise version (amongst other stuff). These extra programs are hoping to be utilised on the KLZ later on in the year.

 Check out the Microsoft feature comparison chart: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/products/FX102464411033.aspx
