Records updated to DISCONTIN are logged. Running the Student Course Attempt Future Discontinuation Report (ENRR08A0) after this process, produces a detailed report of the discontinued student course attempts.

 

 

Update Process

This process updates the student course attempt status for student course attempts that have altered circumstances and were not able to be updated at the time.

The process looks for, and updates, the following occurrences within student course attempt records:

  • An intermission period has begun and the student course attempt status is not INTERMIT.
  • An intermission period has ended and the student course attempt status is still INTERMIT.
  • An enrolment form due date has been reached and the student course attempt status is ENROLLED and there are no ENROLLED unit attempts attached.
  • A teaching calendar start date for a unit attempt has been reached and the student course attempt status is INACTIVE or LAPSED.
  • A future discontinuation date has been reached and the student course attempt status is still ENROLLED.

The logic for derivation of course attempt statuses is the subject of a special topic.

 

 

Run Details

It is recommended that this job be run nightly as a standing request in Job Scheduler.

The job is run to update student course attempt records where details have altered and the status could not be updated at the time. For example: A student has indicated that they wish to discontinue from a certain date. The course attempt status cannot be changed to DISCONTIN until that date has been reached. This process will update the status automatically when the nominated date has been reached.
