Producing a Requirement Advisement Report
The Requirement Advisement report lists the contents (or structure) of a specific academic requirement or all of the academic requirements that meet the criteria established for the report. This report is an easy way to verify the academic requirements for any academic program or plan. For example, if you need a printout of all of the academic requirements that are defined for an undergraduate psychology major, you can run this report.
While preparing to print this report, you can request that the requirements, lines, and courses be summarized in generalized terms or in specific detail. The parameters that you define for the requirement advisement report appear on the report.
Here's how to create a Requirement Advisement report:
Select the academic requirement or enter other general parameters and print options on the Requirement Advisement Report page.
Click the Run button to process the report.

This example illustrates the fields and controls on the Requirement Advisement Report page. You can find definitions for the fields and controls later on this page.
Field or Control |
Definition |
---|---|
Run Control ID |
Identifies the report request. You can use any alphanumeric combination. |
As of Date |
The requirement advisement report accurately reflects the specific requirement (or requirements that meet the search criteria) as of this date. The current date appears by default, but you can modify it. A value in this field is required. |
Academic Requirement |
Enter the academic requirement that is the subject of this report. Each requirement consists of detail lines pointing to conditions and courses, as well as parameters that include unit and course requirements. |
Academic Institution |
Each requirement is associated with only one academic institution. A value in this field is required. |
Important! The Academic Career, Academic Program, Academic Plan, and Academic Sub-Plan fields on this page are used for analysis purposes. These fields are not just prompt values. Because fields are analyzed in a hierarchical order, appropriate field values are system-supplied. For example, suppose that you enter an academic program, the appropriate academic career field value is automatically supplied by the system. If any of these fields are left blank, the report will contain all careers, programs, plans, and sub-plans that satisfy the search criteria.
Field or Control |
Definition |
---|---|
Academic Career |
Enter the academic career that is affected by the requirements. |
Academic Program |
Enter the academic program that is contained within the academic career. |
Academic Plan |
Enter the academic plan that is an area of study (for example, major or minor) within the academic program. |
Academic Sub-Plan |
Enter the academic sub-plan that is a further specialization within the academic plan. A value in this field is optional. |
Honor Blank Values |
Select if the blank fields on this page represent actual values. The default is clear. For example, if you select the check box and leave the Academic Program field blank, then the report will not contain an academic program, because no program has been specified. If the check box is clear, the blank field acts as a wildcard and every academic program in the specified career will be included in the report. |
