Use the Schedule (SSASECT) page create or display sections for the courses that were created in the Course Catalog module, according to the definitions and restrictions that were set up there.
The Registration module then uses the sections to register students. A course catalog record must exist before the creation of sections for that course. Sections can be set up for traditional terms or for open learning.
You can add a new section, or you can copy an existing section within the term or from one term to another term. However, if a campus restriction exists on a section (from SCASRES), and the current campus is not valid, the user is not permitted to enter or update information in any sections of information on SSASECT.
Note: When you add a new section by entering ADD in the CRN field in the key block, the new CRN is displayed in the Course Reference Number field in the Course Section Information, which is located below the key block. The CRN field in the key block still displays ADD at this point. When you save the changes, the new CRN value replaces the ADD value in the key block.
To add a new section, do the following.
- Enter a term in the Term field in the key block.
- Enter ADD in the CRN field.
- Click the Create button.
- Click Go.
- Continue in the Course Section Information section of the page.
Note: You can also enter the term and click the Create button to populate ADD in the CRN field.
To copy a section from one term to another, or to the same term, do the following.
- Enter term, CRN, subject, and course values in the key block.
- Click the Copy button.
- The Copy from Default Term and CRN window opens.
- Use the defaulted term or enter a new term.
- Enter the CRN.
- Click the Copy button.
- Click Go.
- Continue in the Course Section Information section of the page.
