Group Attachment section

Use this section to enter or display the group attachments adjustments for the area specified in the Display-Only section.

Fields Descriptions
Set User-defined identifier for the set to which this requirement belongs, if applicable.

The value can be alphanumeric, but must begin with an alpha character.

See the “Sets and Subsets” section in the “Common Concepts” chapter of the Banner Student CAPP Handbook for more information about sets and subsets.

Subset User-defined identifier for the subset to which this requirement belongs, if applicable.

The value must be a three-digit number. If only one or two digits are entered, the system inserts leading zeroes to cause the subset to sort properly.

Rule User-defined identifier for the rule for this requirement, if applicable.

The system does not validate codes entered in this field; you must therefore be careful not to use the same code for different rules within the same area.

See the “Rules” section in the “Common Concepts” chapter of the Banner Student CAPP Handbook for more information about rules.

List Action Code Validation (STVACTN)

Adjusted Credits Number of credits that can accumulate toward group, area, and program minimum credit requirements, even though the group has been waived. Credits can be entered only when a waiver action code that counts is entered.

A waiver action code that counts is one in which the requirement is waived and the credits that were associated with the original requirement are “counted” as waived. Waiver action codes that do not count waive the original requirement, but the credits associated with the original requirement need to be made up from elsewhere.

Adjusted Courses Number of courses that can accumulate toward group, area, and program minimum courses requirements, even though the group has been waived. Courses can be entered only when a waiver action code that counts is entered.
Course Re-Use Specify the reuse rules for courses between the groups attached to the area.

Valid options 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.

Attribute Re-Use Specify the reuse rules for course attributes between the groups attached to the area.

Valid options are None, In, Out and Both. None is the default.

Within Indicator Check box used to indicate whether within reuse is allowed.

When this check box is selected, different components of the same course (for example, the course itself and one of the course’s attributes) can both be used within the same group.

Year Rule Number of years within which the course must be taken.

When compliance is performed, the evaluation term is used to determine the term from which year rule limits are measured.

A year rule can also be defined at the program, area, or group level. If a year rule is already in effect at a higher level, you can be more restrictive in the detail requirement, but you cannot be less restrictive at a lower level.
