Overview

This page is used to add Components (CRSW2020) to a Course Plan Structure Version (CPSV) (CRSW2005).

Each Component added to a CPSV contains the units that a prospective student can select in the Course Plan Enquiries system to complete part (i.e. a component) of the associated course. All Components added to the CPSV make up the requirements for the associated course.

Components are added to a CPSV in an hierarchical order, based on the order in which they are added. However, you can change the order manually, if required. For more information, see the Adding Components section, below.

Components added to the CPSV may be mandatory or optional, depending on the STRUCTURE System Qualifier value (CRSW1050) that is automatically assigned to the Component when it is added to the CPSV. For more information, see the Adding Components section, below.

The Course Completion Rules for the associated course versions are also viewable on this page (via a link from the course version(s) in the context CPSV section).

The Component Hierarchy, accessed via the Hierarchy icon on this page, shows all units and Components that have been added to the CPSV. You can print a copy of the Hierarchy for reference purposes to assist when creating Timelines (CRSW2015) for the CPSV.

This page is accessed via either of the following pages for a specific CPSV:

• the CPSV (Edit) page (CRSW2005) via the Components icon.
• the New CPSV page (CRSW2005) via the Create & Specify Components button.

CPSV Components Page

This page is used to add or remove a Component to/from the context CPSV. It is split into three main sections:

• The Context CPSV section - displays details of the context CPSV (sourced from CRSW2005).
• The Components List (table) - lists all Components that have been added to the CPSV.
• The Component Tree Structure Information section - displays a detailed tree structure of all Components and their associated units.

Field Descriptions

The following table describes the fields in the context CPSV section located at the top of the CPSV Components page, including applicable Table values.

Values shown in the Components List (table) are sourced from the Components page (CRSW2020) and the Course Plan Structure Qualifier page (CRSW1050).

Context CPSV Section

Fields in this section are display-only fields, and sourced from the CPSV page (CRSW2005) for the context CPSV.

Return to Top

Components List (Table)

The values displayed in the Components List are sourced from the Components page (CRSW2020), except for the Qualifier value which is sourced from CRSW1050 - a description for this field is provided below. For a description of the other values in this table, see the Components page (CRSW2020).

Adding Components to the CPSV

You can add Components to a CPSV irrespective of whether the CPSV is confirmed or not.

To Add a Component to the CPSV

1. Click on the Add icon. The pop-up Search and Select page is displayed.

2. Find the required Component then click on the Use Selected button to return the Component to the Components List (table). Components are listed in the order in which they are added.

The order in which you add Components to the CPSV determines whether a Component is assigned a Qualifier mapped to a Default System STRUCTURE Qualifier of AND or DO. The first Component added to the CPSV is automatically assigned a Qualifier of DO (i.e. is mandatory); all subsequent Components added to the CPSV are assigned a Qualifier of AND (i.e. also mandatory).

The first Qualifier in the list must always be DO. If the first Component (Qualifier = DO) in the list is deleted, then the next Component in the list is automatically re-assigned a Qualifier of DO.

You can change the order of Components manually, via the Move Up or Move Down icon. However, the Qualifier value remains fixed in the same position in the table and does not move with the Component.

3. To add additional Components to the CPSV, repeat the previous steps (steps 1 and 2, above) .

All Components added to the CPSV after the first Component, are automatically assigned a Qualifier of AND.

The AND and OPTION Qualifier values are editable in the Components table, and can be changed, if required, via the Edit Records icon. For more information see the Qualifier Field Description, above and the To Change a Qualifier section, below.

To View the Course Completion Rules

4. (Optional) Click on the required Course Version located in the context CPSV section to view the Course Completition Rules for the selected course version. An information box with the Course Completion rules is displayed.

The Course Completion Rules can be of assistance when adding Components to the CPSV and building Timelines for the CPSV (CRSW2015).

To View the Component Hierarchy Details

5. (Optional) The Component details are shown in the Component Tree Structure Information section, located next to the Components List (table). Expand a Component to view the associated child Components and/or units.

Alternatively, click the Hierarchy icon to view the Component details on CPSV Component Hierarchy pop-up page (CRSW2045) and print a copy if required.

To Edit a CPSV Component

6. For instructions on editing the list of Components (for example, changing the Component order), see Editing CPSV Components, below.

To Confirm the CPSV

7. When you have finished adding Components to the CPSV, click the Confirm CPSV icon to confirm the CPSV. For more information and instructions, see To Confirm the CPSV below.

Note: If the CPSV or any of its Components are subsequently modified, the CPSV is automatically unconfirmed (including all associated open Timelines).

8. Click the Save icon at the top of the Components List table to save your changes.

9. Click the Close button to return to the CPSV page (CRSW2005).

Alternatively, click the Timelines icon to access the Timelines pages (CRSW2015) to create Timelines for the CPSV.

Editing a CPSV Component

You can make the following changes to a CPSV Component in the Components List (table):

• Change the Hierarchy
• Change a Qualifier
• Remove a Component
• Edit a Component on the Component (Edit) page (CRSW2020)

If a change is made to a CPSV, the CPSV is automatically unconfirmed. To reconfirm the CPSV, see 'To confirm the CPSV', below.

To Change the Hierarchy

1. Select the Component in the Components List, then click on the Move Up or Move Down icon, as required to move the Component up or down one level. Alternatively, drag and drop the Component to the required position in the list.

The Qualifier value remains fixed and does not move with the Component. The Component is automatically assigned the Qualifier value located on the line on which it is moved to.

The CPSV Component hierarchy tree structure is displayed in the Component Tree Structure Information section located to the left of the Components List table. It is automatically refreshed each time you change the Component hierarchy/order.

To Change a Qualifier

1. Select the required Component in the Components List (table). Click the Edit Records icon.

2. Click on the Qualifier field, and select a new Qualifier from the List of Values.

You can change the AND or OPTION Qualifier value of a Component. If you change an AND Qualifier to OPTION, the following Qualifier must also be OPTION.

A Qualifier mapped to a Default System STRUCTURE Qualifier of ‘DO’ is not updateable. 

For more information see the Qualifier Field Description, above

To Remove a Component

1. Select the required Component in the Components List (table).

2. Click on the Remove icon. The Component is removed from the list of Components for the context CPSV.

Return to Top

To Edit a Component

1. Select the required Component in the Components List (table) then click on the Component ID. The Component (Edit) page (CRSW2020) is displayed.

2. Edit the Component details, as required. For instructions see the Component (Edit) (CRSW2020) Help page.

Note: If the Component has been added to more than one CPSV (i.e. to other CPSVs) it is advisable to firstly check the impact of any changes you make to other associated CPSVs.

3. Click the Save icon to save your changes and return to the CPSV Components page.

Return to Top

Confirming the CPSV

If any of the CPSV's Components are modified, the CPSV is automatically unconfirmed (including all associated open Timelines). It is therefore necessary to reconfirm the CPSV after making changes on the CPSV Components page.

A CPSV is automatically unconfirmed when any of the following changes are made on this page:

• An associated Component (or unit) is modified.
• An associated Component (or unit) is removed from the CPSV.
• A new Component (or unit) is added to the CPSV.
• An associated Qualifier value is changed.

To Confirm the CPSV

1. Click on the Confirm CPSV icon to check and confirm all changes made to the CPSV.

Alternatively, you can confirm a CPSV from the CPSV (CRSW2005) page by selecting the Confirmed checkbox.

2. The system performs a number of checks and displays any error messages on the page. You must resolve all errors before the CPSV can be successfully confirmed. (See the table below for a list of Rules that may be applied.)

If there are no errors, a confirmation message is displayed at the top of the page, and the UNCONFIRMED lamp is removed from the CPSV (CRSW2005) page.
