In 1996 Mount Royal purchased the Banner Administrative Systems from SCT (now called SunGard SCT) to replace existing legacy finance, human resources and student systems. Banner is an integrated suite of software products that use client/service architecture.
FOAPAL is the acronym representing each element of Mount Royal's chart of accounts: Fund, Organization, Account, Program, Activity and Location. Each of these are independent and must be assigned to every financial transaction. Combined they provide a very powerful reporting tool.
