Purpose

This form enables users to create Advanced Standing Categories (i.e. institution-defined Advanced Standing Recognition Types). These identify the nature of advanced standing for an HE or VET student, and are used in the ADVF2000 , ADVF4200 and PRDF1100 forms, and the Advanced Standing Precedent (PRDW0400) page.

Each Advanced Standing Category must be mapped to a System Advanced Standing Recognition Type (ADVF1120).
System Advanced Standing Recognition Types such as CREDIT and PRECLUSION should be available to map to on this form.

This form is accessed from the main menu.

The Advanced Standing Category block:

• Advanced Standing Category
• System Advanced Standing Recognition Type
• Description
• Closed (check-box)
• Comments
• Explanation

Rules/Notes:

Closed Advanced Standing Categories (i.e. records with the Closed check-box selected) are not available for selection for an advanced standing record created against a Unit or Unit Level in ADVF4200, ADVF2000 or PRDW0400.
