Purpose

To allow the creation and maintenance of Notes relating to Course Offering Options

Course Offering Option

The Course Offering Option block (context block) displays the current Course Offering Option (context record) from the Maintain Course Offering Options form. The displayed records in the Course Offering Option Note block are the notes for the context record.

For example, if Course Offering Option A300 - Bachelor of Arts, version x, Standard Academic Year, Falls Creek Campus, Full Time, On campus is displayed in the Maintain Course Offering Options form, and the Course Offering Option Notes navigation button is selected, then this form will display A300 - Bachelor of Arts, version x, Standard Academic Year, Falls Creek Campus, Full Time, On campus as the context record and any existing notes relating to this record will be displayed.
