Course Request? You Mean Enhancement Request
Can course requests be collected without the Scheduler module?
Yes! While most commonly used with Scheduler, this is an option for those without the module.
Woah! Requests are being tied to the wrong school year! What's happening?!
Scheduler School Year parameter was not have been updated.
Or, if imported/entered through Axiom, administrative user may have messed up.
How do I determine if a course should show on the request interface?
Mark the course as "Available for Request."
Can parents enter course requests?
No, this would be an enhancement request.
My students can only enter in up to three priorities, what did I misconfigure?
You didn't misconfigure anything, "Priority" only goes up to "Third."
Name two defaults that can be set when entering course requests.
Priority
Term
Level
Approval Status
Can I filter certain courses only if a student has taken a prerequisite course?
No, this would be an enhancement request.
Scheduler is enrolling students in courses from request group 3 and not group 1, what am I doing wrong?
Request group is one of the last items considered when Scheduler enrolls students. Other items like course classification "Scheduling Sort Key" values will take priority.
How is a link to the Course Request document added, and what portals can it be added to?
Portal Link configured by SE, not shortcut link.
Parent and Student Portals.
Can I lock recommended course requests so students can't edit them?
Technically yes! Marking a course request as "Approved" fully locks down the request. Marking it as "Recommended" will only prevent it from being deleted, items like priority and level can still be adjusted.
It looks like only approved course requests are being used by the Scheduler, can I fix this?
Yes! On the Scheduler configuration, this is one of the global constraints that can be turned off and on.
Which of these fields can I hide from users when submitting a course request in the portal? Priority, Term, Level, or Notes.
All of them!
Can students review and update existing course requests, but not be able to to add new requests?
I marked a student's course requests as complete, but they're still able to edit them. What did I do wrong?
This is expected. The "Course Requests Finalized" flag on a student record is only meant to indicate that the requests are finalized, this does not lock/approve/prevent them from being adjusted; this is for internal reference.
How are the credits that display with a course request calculated, and can this be hidden?
This is based off of past year class data. New classes will not show credit information unless a class for the previous year is added.
These credits cannot be hidden.
