Graduation

This job streamlines the Graduation Evaluation process by changing the status of the identified records to APPROVED.

If the user elects to use the Course Completion rules option then completion rules are tested and if passed, the graduand will be set to ‘Approved’ otherwise they will be set to the default status recorded for Rejected. A similar process is performed for unit sets. The Predictive mode will not be available for this job.

If the user elects to use the Approved with Conditions option then the conditions are assessed and if satisfied, the graduand will be set to ‘Approved’ otherwise they will be set to the default status recorded for Rejected. A similar process is performed for unit sets.

The user can also indicate if an email will be sent by the system after evaluation. The Send Email function sends an email to graduands that have been approved by the system.
GET will not be evaluated by this job. GET responses need to be manually captured so cannot be automated in this job.

The job inserts records identifying graduands who have been approved and not been approved by automatic approval and also provide reasons behind the failed approvals into the S_EXTRACT and S_EXTRACT_RECORD tables.(S_extract_type = 'GRAD_APPRV') GENJ1000 can be used to generate an extract XML file.
