Self-Service Planning

Use this section of the Term Information to view and set up the registration plan controls for the Plan Ahead path and Register for Classes path in Self-Service.

You can update the indicators and save the changes. If you check and then later clear the Term open for Self-Service planning indicator to close the term for registration planning, other Self-Service planning settings may remain updated and will be checked by the system and processed accordingly.

For example, if the Term open for Self-Service planning indicator is cleared for the term, but the Check third party degree audit system plans indicator is checked, and the Display third party degree audit system plans in registration indicator is checked, planning in the Plan Ahead path will not be available for the term. However the degree audit system plans would continue to be displayed and be available for registration in the Register for Classes path in the Plans section

Also, if the term is closed for planning but the Display Self-Service plans in registration indicator is checked, any student registration plans that had been created before the close of planning will be displayed in the Register for Classes path in the Plans section.
