Obeying Print Control Settings
This section describes how My Academic Requirements (aka the online report) obeys print control settings. These settings do not affect the pdf report or the advisement transcript.
To review, Print Control values determine whether the report description, report long description, and required parameters print on the advisement report. Print control settings exist at the requirement and requirement line level. In the definitions below, required parameters refer to requirement level or requirement line level parameters.
Term |
Definition |
|---|---|
Print on Audit Reports |
Select to specify that the system always prints requirement information (the report descriptions and the required parameters) on the report. |
Do Not Print |
Select to specify that the system never prints report description or requirement parameter information on the report. |
Print If There is Line Detail |
Select to specify that if line detail is used to satisfy this requirement, then the system prints the report descriptions, required parameters, and line detail. |
Skip Printing of This Level |
Select to specify that the system prints line detail but not report descriptions. Exceptions are identified below. This value is not used in analysis; it affects the printout format only. |
Values for the Print Control field are delivered with your system as translate values. Do not modify these values in any way. Any modifications to these values will require a substantial programming effort.
The Print Control field appears on the academic requirement Parameters page and on the Line Item Parameters page. The Credit Include Mode field appears on the Requirement Group Parameters page, the requirement Parameters page, and the Line Item Parameters page. Depending on the values for print control and credit include mode, some combination of the requirement group report descriptions, the requirement report descriptions, the requirement line report descriptions, the courses, and the conditions is printed on the advisement report.
The following table shows nearly all possible combinations of the print control and credit include mode values and whether the report descriptions, course, or condition data prints on the advisement report.
Note: Often, more than one combination results in the same information being printed on the audit report. For example, the settings in rows 8 and 10 of the following table cause the same information to be printed.
Table Legend
The following is a list of credit include mode and print control values used in the table:
AS: All Stats.
DNP: Do Not Print.
PITILD: Print If There Is Line Detail.
SPOTL: Skip Printing of This Level.
POAR: Print On Audit Reports.
DNPLD: Do Not Print Line Detail.
VER: Verify. ANY: Any field value.
Notes
Note the following information about the table:
Yes and No values on the table indicate whether the item appears on the advisement report.
When the print control value is Print if There is Line Detail (PITILD) and there is no line detail, the Req Line Report Descrs and Course or Cond Data column values are "No." Said another way, the line report descriptions and course or condition data print only when there is line detail. An exception with use of Display Select Line is explained later in this document.
The Exclude GPA value is not included in this table because the results are the same as the results of the All Stats settings.
Entries are based on a requirement with a course or condition line type that is partially or completely satisfied.
The Reporting field on the Parameters page is not included.

In an effort to make the My Academic Requirements report more readable and user friendly, the following exceptions or adaptations have been made to the presentation of information on the online report.
Some setup dictates that the requirement line report descriptions and required line parameters should not print and yet line detail should print. Now, the report description is displayed on the advisement report above the course grid or condition data so users have a point of reference.
In the table above, rows 9, 14, 19, 53, and 58 are examples of where you will see the change described.
Some setup dictates that course or condition display only when detail exists. For example, the print control for the line may be Print if there is Line Detail. There are circumstances where there may be no line detail and yet the Display Select Line was selected. In such cases, the system should print courses that may be used to satisfy the line. The change made to the online report is as follows. When the Display Select Line option is selected and there is no line detail, the report will display the report description followed by the courses that may be used. The report long description and line parameters will not display. No changes as yet have been made to the pdf report.
In the table above, rows 8, 13, 18, 47, 52, 57 are examples of this behavior.
The Condition Description field is to be used with the requirement line type of condition. This field is 254 characters long and, when populated, the field value is used where the report long description normally prints. Users are not required to populate the field. If it is empty (blank) the audit will print the condition code, operator, and condition data, as it has in the past. The pdf report currently does not use the field value.
