New User Registration Updates to Support Single Name and Additional Attributes
A new user in Student Management Cloud can optionally register with a single name. Additionally, the date of birth field is now a required field for user registration.

New User Registration
The single name feature allows your institution to accommodate individuals with only one name. Adding the birth date to new user registration will help determine if the individual being registered is of legal age to self-apply or be a proxy.
Steps to Enable
You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.
Role Information
This is a self-service feature.
Consent Verification from Learner Before Adding to Proxy Group
Administrators can now specify whether a learner must verify consent to be added to a proxy group. They can also specify a minimum age to enforce the consent.

Proxy Group Settings
Giving a learner the ability to consent to be added to a proxy group puts the control in the learner’s hands to approve or deny this access.
Steps to Enable
You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.
Role Information
To use this feature, you need the Admissions Coordinator or Manager role.
Filters for Data Access Security Condition Fields
On the Assign Data Access to Roles page, security administrators select from a list of values for fields in the data access security conditions based on previously selected field values.
The list of values for dependent security condition fields are filtered based on the values selected on previous fields. A driving field or column is ordered to the left of a dependent field or column, so that the values in the dependent field are filtered based on the values from the driving column.
For example, you may want to control data access to academic group data in the Curriculum Registry. To filter course data, see Student Records: Data Security for Academic Groups and Courses.
Security administrators can now easily select valid values for a security condition field to define the intended data access for the selected role.
Steps to Enable
You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.
Tips And Considerations
If you created a custom role by copying a delivered role, remove all data security policies that were copied from the delivered role. You can, from now on, assign and manage all data access through data profiles by using the Manage Application Access task.
Role Information
To use this role, you need the IT Security Manager or Application Administrator role, or any role that will manage and assign which role has access to what data.
Administrators can set up tasks that they can reassign at a later time from one user to another.
During the Assign Task process, use the Allow Reassignment to Another Person option to enable it to be reassigned at all. The default is No (reassignment is not allowed).

Assign Task Settings
To reassign a task:
- On the To-Dos page, select a task assigned to a person.
- Navigate to Actions > Reassign Task.
- On the Reassign Task page, search for the reassignment recipient.
- Click the Reassign button next to their name.
You can reassign one or more tasks at once.
Administrative users will have the flexibility to:
- Decide whether or not a particular task is allowed to be reassigned.
- Reassign tasks to colleagues, for example, to balance their workload or to update an incorrectly assigned task.
Steps to Enable
You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.
Role Information
To use this feature, you need the Higher Ed Systems Administrator, Admissions Coordinator, or Admissions Manager role.
Application Access Information Detail Pages
Security administrators can view more application access details for users, pages, and roles, through the Manage Application Access page.
On the Users tab, click a user name to see the pages that a user has access to, and the data profiles that have been assigned to (or mapped to) a user by role.
On the Pages tab, click a page name to see:
- All the roles that have access to (or are assigned to) a particular page
- All the page groups that a page might be included in
- All the data profiles assigned to the business objects on the page
On the Roles tab, click a role name to see:
- Which pages the role has access to
- All the role groups that the role belongs to
- All the data profiles mapped to that role
- All the individual users that have that role
This more holistic view of student management security information makes it easier for administrators to see, plan, and assign page and data access to different roles, users, and pages.
Steps to Enable
You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.
Role Information
To use this feature, you need the IT Security Manager or Higher Education Application Administrator role.
Administrators can set up proxy confirmation emails, requesting proxy group members (learners and other proxies) to confirm or reject an invitation to join a proxy group. The recipient can respond to the invitation either by email or by viewing the information in the Message Center.

Proxy Confirmation Email
After the user responds, they receive a confirmation message.

Proxy Communication Response Confirmation
This feature benefits learners by providing the ability to consent to being added to a proxy group, increasing their privacy and control.
Steps to Enable
You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.
Role Information
To use this feature, administrative users must have roles that enable them to set up communications. In self service, this feature is used by students or applicants who are added to proxy groups.
Task and Checklist Versioning and Publishing
Administrators can create and publish new versions of tasks and checklists. Only a published version can be assigned to the learner. Administrators can create new versions from one that is published and in use.
NOTE: Any new assignments of the task or checklist will use the newest version.
To create a new task version:
- In Task Management, open any task and click the Create New Version button.
- Confirm that you want to create a new version of that task.
- (Optional) Add any comments about this version.
- Make any changes and save.
- When the task is ready, click the Publish button.
You will receive a message warning you that the new version will overwrite the old published version.

Version Publishing Warning
After you publish the new version, a pulldown menu in the Version field lets you see all current and previous versions. The task is then ready to be assigned.
Administrative users can more easily manage the details of their tasks and checklists and see which ones are in use at any given time. In addition, creating new versions of tasks and checklists allows administrative users to edit existing tasks and checklists without changing any of the details of those already assigned to users.
Steps to Enable
You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.
Role Information
To use this feature, you need the Task and Checklist Administrator roles.
Navigation to Home Page Via Company Logo in Page Header
Navigate to the home page by clicking the company logo that appears in the page header.

Example of Logo in Page Header
This feature ensures consistency with other Oracle applications that use the Redwood theme for user experience design.
Steps to Enable
You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.
User Profile Updates to Support Single Name and Other User Attributes
The user profile allows users with single names to enter and display one name. The profile requires users to enter a date of birth.

Single Name and Date of Birth
Administrators can see the user name of the applicant or student on the person's detail page.

User Name on Person Details Page
A separate field has been introduced to record the area code of the phone number.

Area Code of Phone Number
Administrators can maintain deceased information and national identifiers of a student or applicant.

Deceased Information

National Identifiers
Students or applicants can only view their national identifier information.
Here are the benefits of this feature:
- The single name feature allows your institution to accommodate individuals with only one name.
- By requiring date of birth, the institutions can ensure that other features relying on person date of birth information, such as proxy, can work as intended.
- The person's user name appearing in the person details header makes it easier for the administrator to follow up on issues or requests that are related to knowing the person's user name.
- With the area code field, the institutions can ensure the quality of phone numbers they collect.
- Finally, the sections on deceased information and national identifiers allow administrators to easily find all the information related to a person in a single place. The student or applicant can view national identifier information and ensure it's correct.
Steps to Enable
You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.
Oracle Student Financials is a tool for higher education institutions to manage student receivables, billing, and payment collection. Using Student Financials, both staff and students can quickly find and use the financial information they need to make critical decisions. Staff can actively manage student accounts by performing functions such as creating charges, accepting payments, processing refunds, and generating receipts.
Credit Export and Import Service
Institutions use student credits to offset charges on students' accounts. Student credits are payments made with credit cards, checks, cash, sponsorship credits, waivers, or Financial Aid. In earlier releases, institutions could not export student credits from one Student Management environment to another, say from a test environment to a production environment.
In this release, administrators can finally export and import credits from one environment to another.
To export credits from your source environment:
-
Click Navigator > Others > Setup and Maintenance.
- Offering: Student Management
- Functional Area: Student Structures
-
In Tasks > Show, select All Tasks.
-
Click View > Columns, then select Actions. The Actions column appears.
-
On the Manage Student Credits row, click Manage Student Credits: Actions > Export to CSV File > Create New. The Export Setup Data to CSV File page appears.
-
Click Submit to start the export process.
-
On the Confirmation dialog box, click OK.
-
To monitor the status of the export process, click Manage Student Credits: Actions > Export to CSV File. Depending on the status, you may see Exporting setup data or Ready for download.
-
When you see Ready for download, click it.
-
On the results page, click Download File, then save the file to your hard drive. This zip file contains the student credits you will import in your target environment.

-
When you see Ready for data validation, click it. On the results page, the status shows Completed successfully.
-
Click Done.
-
To verify that your credits were imported in your target environment, click Manage Student Credits. You should see the student credits you imported.

Ready for Data Validation
Institutions can use this feature to save time. With this service, they avoid the tedious process of setting up the same configuration multiple times. Additionally, the import step includes a validation process to prevent importing bad data.
Steps to Enable
You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.
Tips And Considerations
When exporting and importing credits, the source and target environments must be of the same Oracle Cloud Applications revision. Ensure that your test and production environments are at the same revision level before your export and import.
It's also extremely important that your target environment is already set up with the same list of values (LOVs) that are used in your existing student credits. These are examples of the LOV fields you fill out when setting up a credit, so the same values you used in your existing credits must exist in the target environment:
- Source of the Credit
- Transaction Type
- Memo Line
- Receivables Activity
- External Reference
- Academic Institution
- Academic Period
- Program Name (Curriculum Name)
If the same LOVs don't exist in your target environment, the credit that uses the non-existent LOVs isn't imported.

Key Resources
Go to docs.oracle.com for information about:
- Exporting and importing CSV file packages. See Using Functional Setup Manager, Manage Setup Using CSV File Packages.
- Student Management lookups. See Implementing Student Management, Campus Community, Student Management Lookups.
Role Information
To export setup data, you need the Application Implementation Consultant role (ORA_ASM_APPLICATION_IMPLEMENTATION_CONSULTANT_JOB).
To access the Manage Student Credits page, you need any one of these roles: Application Implementation Consultant, Higher Education Application Administrator, Bursar.
Administrator Collection of Admissions Application Fee
Previously, there was no way for administrators (be they admissions coordinators, bursars, and so on) to collect and record an application fee payment on behalf of an applicant while remaining in Admissions > Applications. Administrators had to navigate to the Finances area to create a receipt and ensure they recorded the proper application ID as the reference number for the receipt. They also had to follow a similar process to apply a discount to the application fee. Neither portion of the transaction could be completed within the context of submitting the application.
In this release, we have extended the administrator's ability to collect application fees and submit applications on behalf of students or proxies. Here's how:
- Click Navigator > Academics > Admissions.
- In the list of applications, select the applicant's name to open their application. The application form the applicant filled out appears. You can still make changes to this form as needed.
- Click Submit. The payment process is called and you have to select the payer for the transaction. The list that you see shows the applicant and the proxies who can pay for them. When you select a payer, the Make a Payment page appears. You see the amount that you need to collect as well as a discount, if the system applies one based on the conditions you set for the discount.
- If you want to change the discount, click Edit, then select from the list of available discounts. The amount due automatically reflects the changes.
- Select a payment method. The option to Collect Payment Manually for application fees is new. This lets you collect cash payments.
- When you confirm that you received the payment, the application is submitted.

Make a Payment Page

Editing the Discount

Select Your Payment Method
To verify that the transaction was posted:
- Click Navigator > Academics > Finances.
- In Students, search for the applicant/student, then click the applicant/student's name to access their account history. You see that the payment and discount were applied.

Student Account Summary Page 1 of 2

Student Account Summary Page 2 of 2
When the student logs into Self-Service, they will see that their application was successfully submitted.

Self-Service: Applications Page
Administrators can now readily apply and edit discounts for application fees for eligible applicants. They can also collect application fee payments on behalf of applicants or proxies (whether in person or over the phone) without leaving the application submission workflow. The system enables administrators to record cash payments as well as indicate whether they received the payment directly from applicants or proxies.
Steps to Enable
Make sure you set up Student Financials System Options correctly so you can see the option to Collect Payment Manually.
- Click Navigator > Academics > Finances.
- Click Actions > Manage Student Financials Options, then click Self-Service.
- In Manual Payments, select Allow manual payment collection.
- Save your changes.

Student Financials System Options Page
Tips And Considerations
If you want to use discounts, there are a number of things to consider:
- Did you set up Student Management to allow discounts?
- To set this, go to Navigator > Academics > Finances, then click Actions > Manage Student Financials Options > General. Select Allow Discount.
- Is the discount active?
- To check if the discount is active, from the Manage Finances page, click Actions > Manage Discounts Setup.
- If the discount is inactive, edit the discount, then click Inactive to switch it to Active. Save your changes.
- Did you configure your discount to allow overrides?
- If you want to be able to override the amount you set up for a discount, make sure Allow override is selected on the discount details page.
- In the case of application fees, did you set up your application fee to allow discounts?
- If you want to apply discounts to application fees, you need to set that up.
- From the Manage Finances page, click Actions > Manage Miscellaneous Fees. An application fee is a type of miscellaneous fee.
- From the list of fees, select the application fee to see its details. Make sure you select Allow discount.
- If you want the ability to edit discounts, administrators need the privilege HES_APPLY_MANUAL_DISCOUNT assigned to their user account.
Role Information
To change the settings in Student Financials System Options, you need the Application Implementation Consultant role.
To use this feature, you need any one of these roles: Bursar, Registrar, Higher Education Application Administrator, Admissions Manager, Admissions Coordinator.
Single Payment for Multiple Proxy Group Members
In previous releases, proxies could submit payments only for themselves or one learner at a time. This forced proxies to submit separate transactions to pay for outstanding charges for themselves or on behalf of other members of their proxy groups. Before making a payment, proxies also had to determine for whom and how much they wanted to pay using information obtained from the Finances page.
Now, when proxies are in Self-Service, Finances, they can view the financial information (what amounts need to be paid and when) of different users in their proxy group, and then use this information to determine which members of the proxy group to pay for. A proxy can then submit a single payment transaction to pay for all or selected users of their proxy group.

Select Your Payment Amount Page
Additionally, the transaction details in Self-Service, Finances clearly show when charges have been paid by someone else. Receipts are created for each learner even when the transaction was done in a single payment (as opposed to a single receipt that covers all the different charges being paid for).

History of Transactions
With this feature, submitting payments is efficient and intuitive. Proxies are able to make an informed decision when determining for whom and how much to pay. Proxies also save time by submitting a single payment for all outstanding charges that need to be paid. All users will be able to better understand when payments have been made by one user on behalf of another.
Steps to Enable
You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.
Role Information
You need to be a proxy to make payments for other users in your proxy group.
Oracle Student Records enables you to set up and maintain your academic structures, curriculum structures and items, and academic calendars. You can enter, track, and process all academic information – from the course catalog and schedule of courses to student programs. You can enroll, grade, and evaluate students.
Course Detail View for Course Selector
When applying for a program in course selection mode, applicants can view course details, including scheduled course options.
Applicants can remain in the context of their in-progress application while they view the course data.
Steps to Enable
You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.
Course List Grouping for Academic Requirements
Administrators can group courses and course lists within a course list curriculum item to communicate academic requirements to students.
Use the redesigned Course Lists UI to organize courses or other course lists into groups and create groups within groups.
Let's say a requirement is that students must complete these courses:
- One course from Area A - Economics (select from three courses).
- One course from Area B - Sociology (select from three courses).
- Three courses from Area C - Student must complete a specified Political Science course and a specified History course. And select one Business course (select from two courses) or one Psychology course (select from two courses).
Here's the course list structure:

Course List Structure (1 of 2)

Course List Structure (2 of 2)
Here are the steps to group items, in this case, courses, within a course list.
- In the Structure area of the Course Lists UI, click Add Courses to select the courses for your list.
-
Select the check box for each course that you want to group. When you select at least two courses, the Group Course Objects dialog box appears.
-
Click Create Group.
Let's look at some things you can then do:
- Use the Any or All option.
- Rename a group and provide a description, using the ellipses. For example, here's how you might edit the details for Group A:

Course List Area A - Economics
- Move, add, and delete items within a group.
- Reorder groups.
This redesign of the Course List UI allows you to define complex academic requirements in a more intuitive way and document the requirements more clearly for students and staff.
Steps to Enable
You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.
Tips And Considerations
When you retrieve an existing course list in the 20D redesigned Course Lists UI, the list items (courses or course lists) appear in the Courses area but aren't in groups. Organize the list items in groups and save your changes.
Data Security for Academic Groups and Courses
Set data access security for academic groups and courses within the curriculum registry to view, create, and update data.
Academic Group Data Access
Enable data security for academic groups in the curriculum registry. This ensures that a registrar and academic coordinator can create, view, edit and search for only academic groups that they have responsibility for.
You can control user access to viewing and editing academic groups by these attributes:
- Institution
- Academic Level
- Academic Organization
- Academic Group
You can control user access to creating academic groups by the same list of attributes except for academic group.
You can control access by one attribute, multiple attributes, or all attributes.
You can control access for specific roles and for individual users.
Use the Manage Application Access task to create a data profile for a business object. Then assign that profile, with the relevant privilege, to a role or user. Refer to the Role Based Access chapter in the Securing Student Management guide on Oracle Help Center.
Some data profiles are predefined for the business objects. On the Data Profiles page, a value of Yes shows in the Predefined field.
Manage Academic Groups
Create data profiles for the Academic Group business object. You can also use a predefined data profile.
These data profiles impact the access a user has to manage and view academic group data in the Curriculum: Academic Groups UI.
An Academic Group data profile, with the Manage Academic Group privilege, controls which academic groups a user can manage. For example, a user can search for, view, and update only Undergraduate level academic groups.
An Academic Group data profile, with the View Academic Group privilege, controls which academic groups a user can search for and view only.
Create Academic Groups
To control which academic groups a user can create, use data profiles to secure the prompts that are used to create a group. In the Manage Application Access task, create a data profile for the business object that relates to the prompt. You can also use predefined data profiles.
Here's an example. For the Academic Level prompt, you create a data profile for the Academic Level business object. When you assign the profile to a user, you select the predefined privilege Create Academic Group on Academic Level. You select the Undergraduate and Professional academic levels. This means that when a user creates an academic group in the Curriculum: Academic Groups UI, the user can select only Undergraduate or Professional in the Academic Level field.
Here are the business objects and related privileges that you can use for your data profiles.
| Business Object | Privilege |
|---|---|
| Academic Institution | Create Academic Group on Academic Institution |
| Academic Organization | Create Academic Group on Academic Organization |
| Academic Level | Create Academic Group on Academic Level |
Course Data Access
Enable data security for courses in the curriculum registry. This ensures that a registrar and academic coordinator can create, view, edit and search for only courses that they have responsibility for.
You can control user access to viewing and editing courses by these attributes:
- Institution
- Academic Level
- Academic Organization
- Subject
- Campus
You can control user access to creating courses by these attributes:
- Subject
- Campus
- Academic Level
You can control access by one attribute, multiple attributes, or all attributes.
You can control access for specific roles and for individual users.
Use the Manage Application Access task to create a data profile for a business object. Then assign that profile, with the relevant privilege, to a role or user. Refer to the Role Based Access chapter in the Securing Student Management guide on Oracle Help Center.
Some data profiles are predefined for the business objects. On the Data Profiles page, a value of Yes shows in the Predefined field.
Manage Courses
Create data profiles for the Course business object. You can also use a predefined data profile.
These data profiles impact the access a user has to manage and view course data in the Curriculum: Course UI.
A Course data profile, with the Manage Academic Course privilege, controls which courses a user can manage. For example, a user can search for, view, and update only Undergraduate level Art courses.
A Course data profile, with the View Academic Course privilege, controls which courses a user can search for and view only.
Create Courses
To control which courses a user can create, use data profiles to secure the prompts that are used to create a course. In the Manage Application Access task, create a data profile for the business object that relates to the prompt. You can also use predefined data profiles.
Here's an example. For the subject prompt, you create a data profile for the Academic Subject business object. When you assign the profile to a user, you select the predefined privilege Create Academic Course on Academic Subject. You select the subject Art. This means that when a user creates a course in the Curriculum: Courses UI, Art is the only value available in the Identifier (Select subject) field.
Here are the business objects and related privileges that you can use for your data profiles.
| Business Object | Privilege |
|---|---|
| Academic Subject | Create Academic Course on Academic Subject |
| Institutional Campus | Create Academic Course on Institutional Campus |
| Academic Level | Create Academic Course on Academic Level |
Uptake of the data access security framework for academic groups and courses helps you to control user access to this data. And if your institution has decentralized creation and maintenance of academic groups and courses, you can have a more granular level of control. For example, you can create specific roles or user security for access to academic groups or courses within your departments or faculty.
Steps to Enable
Make the feature accessible by assigning or updating privileges and/or job roles. Details are provided in the Role section below.
Role Information
You need the IT Security Manager role to do these tasks. Refer to the Role Based Access chapter in the Securing Student Management guide on Oracle Help Center.
Oracle Student Admissions enables users to enter, track, and process the submission of the admissions applications.
Error Message Details on Admissions Application
Add updated error messages and details to provide corrective actions to resolve issues arising when editing an admissions application form. For example, if a student tries to submit a new application for a program they have already applied to, they will receive an error message. Now there's more context to inform them why they're receiving that error.

Save Error Example
Providing more detailed error messages can help applicants correct or troubleshoot their own issues encountered during the application process, potentially reducing calls to your institution.
Steps to Enable
You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.
Role Information
This is a self-service feature.
Long Text and Additional Personal Information on the Admissions Online Application Form
Add new fields within the online admissions application form, allowing institutions to collect long text entries, as well as expanded options for name, address, and email types.
LONG TEXT
Form Builder now offers you long text area fields to add to a new admissions application form. Users can enter up to a maximum of 1 million characters of data. You can add multiple long text fields to a form, and you must assign it a category. When reviewing the application, administrators can see the first few lines of the long text field, and have the option to show more or show less of its complete content.

Example of Long Text Area Field
ADDITIONAL PERSONAL INFORMATION
You can add the new required Names section to the admissions application form so that an applicant can enter more than one type of name and mark one as preferred. They can also specify if they have or use only one name.

Names Section
You can add the new Addresses section to the admissions application form so that an applicant can enter more than one address and mark one as preferred.

Addresses Section
You can add the new Emails section to the admissions application form so that an applicant can enter more than one email address and mark one as preferred.

Emails Section
Admissions officers can easily view long text responses without having to open attachments, and applicants can enter long text responses without having to attach a file.
More robust personal information sections on the admissions application form make them consistent with the fields in person profile.
Steps to Enable
You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.
Tips And Considerations
Note that forms created before these enhancements are implemented will continue to use the previous versions of the Name, Address, and Email sections.
Role Information
To use this feature, you need the Admissions Coordinator or Admissions Manager role.
Reapplication to an Academic Program
Form Builder now supports reapplication, allowing a user to reapply to an academic program for consideration on a different admit start (data range or academic period). Also, administrators can view additional fields in the application list related to admit periods and reapplication.
In Admissions self service, an applicant who has been denied for a program can reapply for entry on a different start date. Or, applicants who have attended a program and want to repeat it in a different academic period (such as a precollege program) can reapply for consideration.
On the Applications list, administrators can view and sort by the new Admit Start Type, Admit Start Date, and Admit End Date fields. They can also see if an application is a Reapplication, as well as navigate to other application submissions to the same program from within the reapplication.

Administrator View of Previous Submissions

Other Submissions
Reapplication is common in many programs, such as continuing education programs, graduate programs, and undergraduate applicants reapplying as a transfer students. Applicants can now be considered for admission on a different start date to a program to which they've already applied.
Steps to Enable
You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.
Role Information
To use this feature, you need the Admissions Coordinator role. Applicants will access this feature through self service.
Additional Tokens for Recommendation Communication
Add five additional communication tokens to a communication template delivered to a recommender when an applicant has requested a recommendation during the admissions application process. These additional tokens provide an administrator with more options to add program-specific content to the recommendation invitation.

Recommendation Invitation
Adding more tokens means that a recommender will be able to view all of the information they need to submit a recommendation on behalf of an applicant.
Steps to Enable
You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.
