| Student Group Adjustments (SMASGRP) page | |
Use the Group General Requirement Adjustments window to enter adjustments to a group’s general requirements record.
If you copied values from another group, the defaulted values are displayed in the appropriate fields, but you can change them if desired.
| Fields | Descriptions |
|---|---|
| From Term | First term in which this adjusted set of general requirements is in effect. Display only. |
| To Term | Last term in which this adjusted set of general requirements is in effect. Display only. |
| Active/Inactive | Option group to indicate whether the group is active or inactive for the term range. The default is Inactive.
When a group is inactive, it cannot be used for compliance. If a user attempts to perform compliance for an inactive group, an error message is displayed. |
| Total Required Credits | Minimum total number of credits needed to satisfy the group’s requirements. This number includes all institutional (both traditional and non-traditional) and transfer credits. |
| Connector None/And/Or | Option group to indicate which value(s) the system should use.
The Connector option button group indicates whether the system should use both values (And), either value (Or), or only one value (None). (If using the None connector, a value can be entered in only one of the two fields.) See the “Connectors” section in the “Common Concepts” chapter of the Banner Student CAPP Handbook for more information about connectors. |
| Total Required Courses | Minimum total number of courses needed to satisfy the group’s requirements. This number includes all institutional (both traditional and non-traditional) and transfer courses. |
| Required Institutional Credits | Minimum number of credits that must be earned at your institution to satisfy the group’s requirements. |
| Connector None/And/Or | Option group to indicate which value(s) the system should use.
The Connector option button group indicates whether the system should use both values (And), either value (Or), or only one value (None). (If using the None connector, a value can be entered in only one of the two fields.) |
| Required Institutional Courses | Minimum number of courses that must be earned at your institution to satisfy the group’s requirements. |
| Required Institutional Traditional Credits | Minimum number of credits earned at the institution with a traditional grade (as defined on the Grade Code Maintenance [SHAGRDE] page) needed to satisfy the group’s requirements. |
| Connector None/And/Or | Option group to indicate which value(s) the system should use.
The Connector option button group indicates whether the system should use both values (And), either value (Or), or only one value (None). (If using the None connector, a value can be entered in only one of the two fields.) |
| Required Institutional Traditional Courses | Minimum number of courses earned at the institution with a traditional grade (as defined on SHAGRDE) needed to satisfy the group’s requirements. |
| Max Institutional Non-Traditional
Credits |
Maximum number of credits earned at the institution with a non-traditional grade (as defined on SHAGRDE) that can be used to satisfy the group’s requirements. |
| Connector None/Or | Option group to indicate which value(s) the system should use.
The Connector option button group indicates whether the system should use only one value (None) or either value (Or). |
| Max Institutional Non-Traditional Courses | Maximum number of courses earned at the institution with a non-traditional grade (as defined on SHAGRDE) that can be used to satisfy the group’s requirements. |
| Maximum Transfer Credits | Maximum number of transfer credits that can be used to satisfy the group’s requirements. |
| Connector None/Or | Option group to indicate which value(s) the system should use.
The Connector option button group indicates whether the system should use only one value (None) or either value (Or). |
| Maximum Transfer Courses | Maximum number of transfer courses that can be used to satisfy the group’s requirements. |
| Compliance Credits | Number of credits to be applied towards the program’s and area’s minimum credit requirement for the group.
Use this field to override the actual number of credits that would normally be accumulated by the area to the program. For example, you might need to define a group to use within a graduate program to verify that a student has completed specific undergraduate requirements. To satisfy the program, the student must complete the undergraduate work, but the undergraduate credits/courses (which are entered in the Compliance Courses field) do not accumulate toward the graduate program's minimum required credits/courses. To achieve this, you could define the undergraduate requirements as a group with zero compliance credits/courses, and then the work would not accumulate toward the program. |
| Compliance Courses | Number of courses to be applied towards the program’s and area’s minimum course requirement for the area.
Use this field to override the actual number of courses that would normally be accumulated by the area to the program. An example is provided in the description of the Compliance Credits field. |
| Default Within Indicator | Check box used to indicate whether a course and its attribute(s) can be used to satisfy more than one detail requirement within the group. |
| Default Course Reuse | Default course reuse rule to be used by compliance.
If a different reuse rule has been designated for an area to which this group is attached, the area-level rule overrides the group-level rule. Values in the pull-down list are None, In, Out, and Both. None is the default. See the “Reuse” section in the “Common Concepts” chapter of the Banner Student CAPP Handbook for more information about reuse in CAPP. |
| Default Attribute Reuse | Default attribute reuse rule to be used by compliance.
If a different reuse rule has been designated for an area to which this group is attached, the area-level rule overrides the group-level rule. Values in the pull-down list are None, In, Out, and Both. None is the default. |
| Minimum Course Grade | Code of the minimum grade that must be earned for courses to satisfy the group’s requirements.
Select the Search button for this field to display the Grade Code Maintenance (SHAGRDE) page. List Grade Code Maintenance (SHAGRDE) page |
| Default Year Limit | Number of years old a course can be to satisfy the group’s requirements.
When a compliance request is processed, the evaluation term entered for the compliance request is used in conjunction with this field to determine how far back to go in a student’s academic history to retrieve valid courses. CAPP checks the earliest term in the furthest year of the course year limit you set. Example: The course year limit is five, and the user enters an evaluation term of 200620. When processing the request, CAPP considers courses back to 200110, which is the first term in the academic year five years back from 2006. |
