Assigning a Group of Students to a Student Group

To run the process to assign a group of students to a student group, use the Process Student Group component (SCC_RUN_STD_GRP).

The process for assigning a group of students to a student group can be run with or without Population Selection selected. If you use the Population Selection PS Query option, you must include the STDNT_GRP_BIND record in the query to place it in the list of eligible queries on the Process Student Group page.

This section discusses how to run the student group process.

Process Student Groups page

Population Selection

This group box appears when the Population Selection process is selected.

Population selection is a method for selecting the IDs to process for a specific transaction. The Population Selection group box is a standard group box that appears on run control pages when the Population Selection process is available or required for the transaction. Selection tools are available based on the selection tool that your institution selected in the setup of the Population Selection process for the application process and on your user security. Fields in the group box appear based on the selection tool that you select. The fields behave the same way from within the group box on all run control pages and application processes.

If your institution uses a specific delivered selection tool (PS Query, Equation Engine equation, or external file) to identify IDs for a student group transactions, you must use it.

See Using the Population Selection Process.

Comment

Student Override

You can use the student override function to enter student IDs individually for assignment to a student group. You can use this function in conjunction with the Population Selection option. If you use both features, the student override function processes first. If duplicate IDs exist in the student override function and the population selection function and the effective dates are the same, only one row will be inserted using the student override status, regardless of status. If the effective dates differ, then a row will be inserted for each process instance.
