Feature Summary

Column Definitions:

Report = New or modified, Oracle-delivered, ready to run reports.

UI or Process-Based: Small Scale = These UI or process-based features are typically comprised of minor field, validation, or program changes. Therefore, the potential impact to users is minimal.

UI or Process-Based: Larger Scale* = These UI or process-based features have more complex designs. Therefore, the potential impact to users is higher.

Features Delivered Disabled = Action is needed BEFORE these features can be used by END USERS. These features are delivered disabled and you choose if and when to enable them. For example, a) new or expanded BI subject areas need to first be incorporated into reports, b) Integration is required to utilize new web services, or c) features must be assigned to user roles before they can be accessed.

Ready for Use by End Users
(Feature Delivered Enabled)

Reports plus Small Scale UI or Process-Based new features will have minimal user impact after an update. Therefore, customer acceptance testing should focus on the Larger Scale UI or Process-Based* new features.

Customer Must Take Action before Use by End Users
(Feature Delivered Disabled)

Not disruptive as action is required to make these features ready to use. As you selectively choose to leverage, you set your test and roll out timing.

User Name and Constituent ID Search in Person Profile

Search for higher education person records using the person name, user name, email, or constituent ID.

Example of searching for a person with a constituent ID.

Person Search

Academic level and program filters have been removed from person search.

This feature allows you to find the profile of a person more easily.

Steps to Enable

You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.

Attribute Tags and Tag Groups

Create, update, and delete general or service hold tags to assign to people. For example, you can create an attribute tag named Athlete and add it to a person profile. Also, group tags by adding tags to tag groups.

From Student Central, click Search and search for Tags to manage tags and tag groups.

Here's an example of a general tag being created.

Creating a general type tag named athlete.

Creating a General Tag

After creating the general tag, associate the tag with one or more tag groups. Associate a general tag with the Person Attribute tag group, so that you can assign the tag to person records.

Associating the athlete tag with the person attribute tag group.

Associating a Tag with a Tag Group

Select Service Hold as the type to create a service hold tag. For service hold tags, you can provide this information:

  • Steps on how to resolve the hold.
  • Indicate whether the resolution can be done internally within the institution.
  • If internal, the page destination where the end user can resolve the hold and the contact who can help the end user.
  • If external, use the detailed mitigation steps to specify the contact who isn't part of your institution.

Creating a library service hold tag with information on how to resolve the hold.

Creating a Service Hold Tag

This feature allows you to keep all the tags organized in one place so later they can be assigned to people.

Steps to Enable

You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.

Tips And Considerations

You can now use this feature instead of the person tags feature to manage tags. These person tags tasks are no longer available in the Setup and Maintenance work area:

  • Create Person Tags in Spreadsheet
  • Upload Person Tags in Spreadsheet
  • Manage Person Tags

In addition, for this new feature, you can import and export the data from one environment to another in the Functional Setup Manager. The import and export of data for person tags is no longer available.

Once assigned, a tag can’t be deleted or inactivated.

Person Attribute Tag Assignment

Assign attribute tags to people to identify them in reports, for example, assign an attribute tag named Military to a student.

Click Attributes on the person profile page to assign general type tags.

Assigning a general tag to a person profile on the attributes section.

Assigning a General Tag to a Person Profile

Click the Service Holds tab to assign service hold type tags. When assigning a service hold tag, you can:

  • Indicate whether the end user, to whom the hold is assigned, can view the hold on their My Account page.
  • Specify the duration of the hold.
  • Edit information on how to resolve the hold, such as mitigation steps, mitigation contact, and so on.

Assigning a Service Hold Tag to a Person Profile

This feature allows you to assign general and service hold tags to end users.

Steps to Enable

You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.

Tips And Considerations

Manage Person Profile (Navigator > Academics > Person Profiles) is no longer available. Use Person Profiles (From Student Central, click Search and search for Person Profile Search) to assign general and service hold tags.

Steps to Enable

Tips And Considerations

If you created user-defined roles and assigned page access to them using the Manage Application Access task in the Setup and Maintenance work area, you must review your user-defined roles to see if you need to assign them access to the new pages, page elements, and page permissions.

Access Requirements

You need an IT Security Manager role to use this feature.

Student Financials

Receipt Refunds by Account

Create refunds for all of the refundable receipts for an account in one action.

To process all outstanding refunds through the Issue Refunds process, schools previously had to create a transaction for each refundable receipt.

With this feature, schools can now use a single action and create multiple refund transactions and work more efficiently with an account that has multiple receipts or refundable credits.

Steps to Enable

You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.

Student Records

Post Enrollment Prerequisite Verification

Evaluate student requisites to potentially drop students from course sections when they haven't satisfied required prerequisite courses. Run a process when course sections from preceding academic periods are completed to identify students who failed to satisfy prerequisites and drop them from course sections in the current academic period.

Use the new Evaluate Student Requisites process instead of manually managing student records with unmet prerequisites.

The process uses course outcomes only, not result set values.

Here’s what the process does for courses in a particular academic period:

  • Evaluates the records of students enrolled in the course to check if students have met the course prerequisites.
  • Identifies which students haven’t met the perquisites.
  • Removes students from the course.

Here’s how you run the process:

  1. Click Navigator and in the Tools area, click Scheduled Processes.
  2. Click Schedule New Process.
  3. Select Evaluate Student Requisites and click OK.
  4. Select your parameters.
  5. Click Submit.

Evaluate Student Requisites Process

Drop Enrollments Process Mode

To notify students that they have been dropped from a course, create a communication category for the delivered Enrollment Drop event. Then create the email communication.

Notify Only Process Mode

If you want to warn students that they will be dropped from a course, select the Notify Only process mode. To notify students, create a communication category for the delivered Process Student Requisites Warnings event. Then create the email communication.

As you can see, the automation of this previously manual process for evaluating student requisites will save you time and effort.

Steps to Enable

Do this Communications setup for the new Evaluate Student Requisites process:

  1. Create communication categories for delivered events.
  2. Create communications.
