The Ceremony Attendance (SHACATT) page is used to create and maintain ceremony attendance records. A record will exist for each unique ceremony that the attendee will attend. Information is maintained on this page such as cap, gown, hood, types and sizes. When the Cap Type, Gown Type, and Hood Type are entered, the associated information will default in to the Attendee Information section from the Attendee Size Classification Rules (SHASIZE) page, when these rules have been created.
The Attendee Size Classification Rules (SHASIZE) page is an optional table of sizes and ranges which is utilized by SHACATT. If an asterisk (*) is displayed in one of the Measurement fields for height, weight, or cap size, it indicates that the measurement entered does not fall within a predetermined range on SHASIZE. This does not prevent the user from entering information or overtyping the data in the sections for height, weight, head size, and cap, gown, and hood type.
The Faculty Degree Information (SIAFDEG) page in the Faculty Load module may be checked to verify prior college degree information for an ceremony attendee. This is useful in determining which hood type should be selected for an attendee for an academic ceremony.
