Setting Up AIR Administrator Security
It is useful to read this section in the context of these other sections in the document:
Setting Up Program Formats (earlier in document).
Setting Up Academic Item Registry Entries, Item Details, and Item Security (later in document).
Building Programs by Format (later in document).
A Program Format definition provides a framework for building academic requirements in the Academic Item Registry. Program Format provides a template for building programs in a prescribed way, using the Build Program by Format component. This component is the main tool for defining programs of study using academic items that are defined in the Academic Item Registry.
The majority of users will use the Academic Item Registry component primarily to build the content that is compiled into a program of study using the Build Program by Format component. For this reason, the use of Program Format node academic items is restricted in the Academic Item Registry component, so that most users can assign only non-Program Format Tree node items as children of other items. This prevents deviation from authorized program structures.
Exceptions to program formats can be made only by users who are authorized as Academic Item Registry Administrators.
Warning! We recommend that any exceptions be given careful consideration and testing as an exception to an established hierarchy may not be supported in the various processes and user interfaces that use the program format definition for validation and formatting purposes.
