Course Schema - Course Additional Settings

4.      You can perform the following operations from this screen:

·        When available, select or enter default values for the configuration settings. The default values will apply to all members of the selected community.

Note: Default selections are not available for the following: External ID, Budget Code, Inquiries, Overview, Expectations, and Prerequisites Comments.

For details about each of the fields in this section, see Course Additional.

·        In the Hide Setting column, check the boxes beside those settings you want to hide on the Course Additional screen.

·        In the Required Setting column, check the boxes beside those settings you want to be mandatory on the Course Basics, Sessions Basics, and Course Additional screens.

Note: Fields that are mandatory by default do not have boxes beside them.

·        In the Sort Order column, place numbers into fields to determine the order that items should appear on the Catalogue screen (in User mode), the Course Summary report, and when previewing course settings in Admin mode.  

Hint: The Sort Order column contains many blank boxes. These boxes hold numbers, and allow you to establish a hierarchy based on the number order. The lower the number, the closer to the top of the screen the item will be. For example: 1 will be the first item listed on the screen, 2 will be second item listed on the screen, 3 will be third, and so on.

Note: To set all settings to default, place a 0 in each box.

Note: If you place the same number beside two different items, the hierarchy of those two items will return to their default order.

Note: The sort order options do not apply to the Course Basics, Session Basics or Course Additional screens.

·        Click the Save button to save your changes.

·        Click the Reset button to undo any changes made since the last time the screen was saved.

·        Click the Clear Settings button at the bottom of the page to delete any selections made for the selected community.

Note: This button will also delete the selections in the Course Basics and Session Basics  sections of the screen.
