It’s our last Pro Tip for the Fall term, and we’ll be picking back up after the winter break.
In keeping with the theme of final exams, here’s a pop quiz! During the build, you’ve discovered that you do not need one of your class sections that has been scheduled already in SIS. It’s currently Final Call. What should you do?
Delete, delete, delete!
Follow the rules below on when to cancel and when to delete class sections:
Delete a class section when:
- The Schedule of Classes has not been released. A class section should only be deleted if the Schedule of Classes for that term has not been released yet in Course Search & Enroll.
- Note: At any time during Initial Call or Final Call for a given term, class sections should always be deleted if a department does not intend to offer the section.
Cancel a class section when:
- The Schedule of Classes has been released. Canceling a section after the Schedule of Classes for that term has been released and appears in Course Search & Enroll will ensure students receive correct information in the enrollment system.
- Never delete a section after the Schedule of Classes has been released; doing so will remove the class number, resulting in errors for enrollment and student confusion.
- Important: You will have to work with Curricular Services to cancel a section with enrollment.
