Setting School Code or Program Sponsor User Defaults

Access the User Defaults 4 page (Set Up SACR, and then User Defaults, and then User Defaults 4).

Note:

The Carry ID, Output Destination, Transcript Type, and Advisement Report Type fields are not used for SEVIS.

SEVIS Default

The system uses the defaults that you set here to populate data in the SEVIS component. The default values that you set here can be overridden on any page in the system.

Although setting user defaults can save time, doing so is optional.
