Banner | SIS Import Question...

We are looking for input from an institution that uses "Banner" as it's SIS.  When making users "active" or "deleted" in a course, how are you monitoring for this in Banner, so that the SIS Import "Enrollments" file puts the correct status for the user if they have dropped or been removed from a course section?  *If I didn't word that correctly, please forgive me.

I am told that one way to handle this, and I guess not have to monitor a "dropped course" field in Banner, if there is one, is to "use Canvas imports with a Full Batch flag for enrollments."  Anyone not in the enrollment list would be removed from the course.  Is this the preferred method, or what process can be used to pull from Banner that a person has dropped, or switched sections of a course?

Thanks.
