Schedule Error Report
SWRSCHEDocumentation Prepared by: Leanna BowmanProgrammer: Linda [email protected] 10, 2012
Purpose of SWRSCHE
The purpose of this report identifies omissions in critical schedule data and helps individual academic departments and the Registrar’s Office correct data errors for improved internal and external reports.
Because some items cannot be edited once registration has begun, it is recommendedthe report be run prior to quarterly registration to facilitate correction of errors and omissions prior to peak reporting deadlines.
Report FormatThere are two output options, the .xls
(opens in Excel)or the .lis (pdf format) report
Either one can be used as a work sheet to make changes/corrections
Excel FormatThe .xls opens as an Excel spreadsheet
and can be manipulated as a typical Excel file, however, because of its size, it is difficult to print
This file contains records that need to be updated and records that are complete (indicated with an ‘OK’ in the result column)
Columns with * require data to be added or corrected
Empty columns labeled ‘Flag’ may be used to enter correct data
PDF FormatThe .lis opens as a pdf file and cannot be
electronically manipulated, but will have spaces to write in information
Errors and Omissions
The following are considered required data:Combined lab/lectures correctly identified on room
recordMeeting time for sessionMeeting day(s) for sessionBuilding and/or room for sessionInstructor assigned to sessionInstructional MethodPrimary instructor designated for sessionSession responsibility – must equal 100%Errors and omissions are denoted by an ‘*’ and/or
a blank line and must be corrected
Schedule Type Groups
Correct and accurate data is important for all WWU courses. However, lecture type courses (schedule types S, C, L, B, D) will be examined more closely than other types of courses. Therefore, courses have been divided into two groups: Group 1=S, C, L, B, D Group 2=All other schedule types
Group 1Seminar (S)Combined (C)
Lecture (L) Lab (B) Discussion (D)
Combined lecture/lab or discussion set up:• C is entered on the 1st screen of SSASECT
L&B or L&D are entered on the meeting location and credits screen
Group 2All other schedule types
Applied Performance (A) Field Experience (F) Independent Study (I) Internship (N) Practicum (P) Research (R) Graduate Thesis (T) Senior Thesis/Senior Project/Capstone (J) Master Class (M) Studio (U) Activity (V) Exam/AP/Challenge (X) – Internal Use Only
Instructional MethodInstructional method data has been
loaded into the schedule. Please verify your courses have the correct instructional method assigned. All courses will be coded FTF unless coded as a distance course.
This data will be used in Look up Classes to Add which will allow students to search on specific instructional methods:
