I suspect they are referring to the " MSU EBS Support Pathway 2011 Volume 12 Issue 3" sent on 12/13/2011.  Every member of my staff forwarded their copy to me!

·         See "EBS Internet Browser and Adobe Reader Review Results (http://ebs.msu.edu/Technical/docs/EBSBrowserResults.pdf )"

 

Also, most staff in my unit got the email " Action Required: Download and Install New EBS SAP GUI " on 12/13/2011 - the links also had references to new browser requirements.

 

FYI, the EBS compatibility doc from 12/9/2011 states that IE9 is now the recommended browser:

Hope that helps!

I too just had to call the EBS hotline to find out when I could update my browsers since they had updated our CA program and it no longer worked in the older version of FireFox.  The guy told me that they have things working with newer versions now.  I asked how we (the U staff) were supposed to know about this and he told me that a newsletter went out.  I didn’t get this newsletter, obviously. Did anyone else?

 

Thanks              /Linda

When I went in looking for it, I noticed that message was gone, but I hadn't seen a "hey we now work with browsers abc and versions xyz" type message.

 

I see the browser recommendations were updated and it looks like IE9 does require compatibility mode

Actually, non-compatibility has been working for a while now (probably a month at least). If you notice, the messages about newer version of Firefox and IE are gone now.

It's worked for me as long as you use Compatibility Mode.

I'm not an EBS user, but I have a few individuals that I support who are. With Microsoft announcing last week that starting January 2012 IE will auto-update like Chrome, these individuals are going to be pushed to IE9. Is that working yet with EBS & SAP?
