Hi All

We like to know is it possible? Our school has an Emergency notification system that we want all students to register but some still ignoring it. We like to force the students to register the service before he/she can access Banner SSB in luminis. (Or Disable Self-service Banner Tabs before the student finish a survey that he/she has to take).

Thanks in advance.

Make the Tab role based,

Make the Tab role based, remove all the students from that role and put them in the survey role. It seems a little big brother-ish but if that is what your administrators say to do....

I have created something similar for our portal. We have done a survey for the students and waiting for the approval for the staff/faculty survey. Essentially I created a role 'portalsurvey' with a layout owner that owns a tab. Those in that role see the survey tab and with the dlm I made it first (given that none of the students have mucked with their tab layout). So the user sees the survey when they first sign into the portal.

In our case the user can still navigate away from the survey but I keep track of user visits to the survey. So I can see how many times someone saw the survey before they filled it out. After they fill it out I log all their data in the database then I have a cron job that runs every 15 minutes and looks for users that have completed the survey. If they have I remove them from the 'portalsurvey' role.
