Setting Up Valid Student Groups

To set up valid student groups, use the Define Valid Student Groups component (SAA_VALID_STDNT_GR).

You can use student groups in the setup of enrollment requirements (requisites) and degree requirements.

If you generate advisement reports using the Request Advisement Report or Generate Advisement Reports components (SAA_RPT_RQST or SAA_RC_RPTGEN), you can also use student groups as a "trigger" advisement report processing. That is, you can use the addition, deletion, or change to a student's student group record as the basis for generating a new advisement report for a student or group of students.

This section discusses how to set up student groups for use in Academic Advisement.
