When selecting the setting of the Prerequisite Check Method radio group, be aware of the following scenarios.

When the Prerequisite Check Method is set to CAPP for a course and no CAPP area prerequisites exist for the term range, and the user makes a change to the record and saves the record, an error message is displayed: A CAPP area prerequisite must exist to save CAPP as a valid prerequisite check method. The user must acknowledge the message to continue.
When the Prerequisite Check Method is set to CAPP for a course and no CAPP area prerequisites exist for the term range, and the Copy Term Data button is used to copy the course to a new term, and no CAPP area prerequisites exist in the term range for the new course record, the setting of the Prerequisite Check Method radio group will be changed from CAPP to Basic or None, because no CAPP area prerequisites exist for the term range. The record is saved successfully.
When the Prerequisite Check Method is set to CAPP for a course and the Copy Term Data button is used to copy the course to a new term, and CAPP area prerequisites exist for some but not all terms in the term range for the new course record, the record is saved successfully for the CAPP prerequisite check method when an area has been defined for the selected term.
When the Prerequisite Check Method is set to CAPP for a course and CAPP area prerequisites exist for some but not all terms in the term range on the course record, and the user makes a change to the record and then saves the record, a warning message is displayed: WARNING: CAPP area prerequisites exist, but the CAPP prerequisite check method is not selected. The user must acknowledge the warning to continue.
