About The Information In This Screen

The screen is divided into three blocks:

• Student Course Attempt - shows details of an 'unconfirmed' course or a course which the student has attempted. If the student has more than one course recorded, use the Next Crs and Prev Crs buttons to view them. For students with more than one course attempt, the ability to display all course attempts in this screen depends on how this screen is entered. If it is entered:
  • via the Detail button in the Person Inquiry screen, only the selected course attempt is displayed.
  • via the Enrolled Courses button in the Person Inquiry screen, only ENROLLED courses can be displayed.
  • via the Academic History button, all course attempts can be displayed.
  • via a Drill Down button in a Class List, only the course attempt associated with the student's unit attempt can be displayed.

Queries cannot be performed in this block. To retrieve the records of other students, return to the Person Inquiry screen (by clicking on the Exit button ,as many times as required, to scroll back through previously viewed screens) and perform a query there, or return to the Class List (by clicking on the Drill Up button ) and select another student.

Information lamps are displayed at the top of the screen where applicable. These lamps and their meaning are:

• ACADEMIC ENCUMBRANCE - the student currently has an academic encumbrance that restricts or constrains their enrolment in the context course. Details of the encumbrance are maintained in the Basic Person Encumbrance Detail form (ENRF6310). A zoom can be created to ENRF6310 - access depends on Callista security roles.
• ADMINISTRATIVE ENCUMBRANCE - the student currently has an administrative encumbrance that restricts their access to services provided by the institution. Details of the encumbrance are maintained in the Basic Person Encumbrance Detail form (ENRF6310). A zoom can be created to ENRF6310 - access depends on Callista security roles.
• LOAD-CAL-1 01/01/99 30/06/99 - this lamp is only illuminated if the student is enrolled in the context course, and displays the load calendar used to derive their current attendance mode and type. The student's derived attendance mode and type may differ from the attendance mode and type values of the course offer made to the student. These values are displayed in the Student Course Attempt block of the Person Inquiry screen.

The navigation buttons in this block are described under 'Where To From Here?'.

• Student Unit Set Attempt - displays basic details of the student's unit sets for the context course. Unit sets typically describe the majors, minors, streams or specialisations pursued by the student. Queries can be performed in this block to refine the set of information displayed. Unit sets are displayed in rank order with any primary unit sets displayed first.
• Student Unit Attempt - shows details of the units which form part of the context course attempt. Queries can be performed in this block (on all fields except Mark and Grade) to refine the set of unit attempts displayed.
