  Neither of these are necessarily "bulletproof" solutions to the situations 
you're facing, but they are certified 3rd party products that offer what IT 
types call "archiving" capabilities for the data in these systems. I 
wouldn't tout either as a RM tool, but once you can extract the data, if you 
have the ability to further manipulate it. If you can get it into a CSV 
format (or the XML format Outerbay mentions), you could then re-purpose the 
data and place in into a true ERMS. 
 What these requests point out is the value of involving an RIM in the 
selection process for "software solutions" before they become "information 
management problems". 
  In the case of SCT Banner, I believe it's a proprietary datastore, and if 
I'm not mistaken HE has a requirement for permanent (whatever that means) 
retention of this data. In the case of PeopleSoft, well... can you spell 
O_R_A_C_L_E ???
