Updates - April 2008

When entering applications, don’t forget that multiple applications should not be entered for the same person unless the academic level is different or the application is for an undergraduate day student. For all continuing education and graduate applications, simply select the existing application and update it as necessary.

Also, please keep in mind that just because a field isn’t highlighted on APPN that doesn’t mean the field is not required. When entering an APPN, be sure you are entering the correct data in the Start Term, Location, Admit Status, and Student Type fields. These seem to be areas that could use some extra attention.

PROCESSING WITHDRAWALS

Please remember that when you process a withdrawal you MUST enter a Status Reason, a Drop Grade of W, and the Last Attended Date in addition to the Status and Date.

SECURITY REVIEW

Supervisors, have the duties and responsibilities of staff in your office changed since their initial Datatel training? Consider scheduling a security review to make sure that your staff have access that is appropriate for they job they are currently performing. If interested, contact Sharen Brady to arrange a review.

ENTERING REQUISITIONS

Just a reminder to please be sure that you’re filling in your department’s Ship To code on REQM, entering your name in the Printed Comments field on REQM, and addressing your delivery instructions to Central Receiving in the Comments field on RQIM. These fields are designed to help get what you ordered to you, so please be sure to use them! If you have any questions about what should be entered where, your documentation is a handy resource. As always please feel free to contact anyone in Database Management with any questions.
