• Upcoming, Active, or Completed courses can be controlled with this setting

• The value entered must be a valid FoxPro logical expression. Courses meeting the value “True” will not be displayed

Excluding Courses

The following entry will hide courses where the 7th code character is either M or N. Once the courses is completed, courses with a 7th character of N will be listed.

RegStatusExclude=SUBSTR(cocrse,7,1)$’MN’|SUBSTR(cocrse,7,10=‘N’

Capturing Supplemental Data

ECDC turned on adds fields from the Supplemental Data Page to the Enrollment Card

Eliminates extra step for users!

Prevent Re-register

• ACEweb now looks for a previously deleted registration for each Student/Course combination

• If it finds one (ex: payment failed) AW undeletes the failed record, rather than creating a new record

• If the payment is successful, a second “good” payment is created

Prevent Re-register

• Notes about the payment record– Two pay records have now been created:

• Failed / Good

– How they are handled is dealt with by the FailOption in the INI file

• Option 1 – the record is marked for deletion• Option 2 – the record is voided

Cancelled Registrations Refused

If the office cancels a registration (clicks the

cancel button on the registration screen)

ACEweb will not allow re-registration.

Improved handling of Pre-requisites

• CatLinkStatus helps to enforce multiple prerequisites

• Option 5 allows users to meet the prerequisites by adding them to the current enrollment card

• Option 7 requires the user to complete the prerequisites before registering

Support for Extended Credit

Allows users to select their course credit type from the personal data page

For this option several additionalchanges are required.

Please consult your ACEware tech.

Additional Pay Types Supported

ACEweb now supports payment types A & B for internal transfers, scholarships, etc.
