Block Modify Course Requests

This option in Schedule Builder allows you to globally assign requests to groups of students. For example, if everyone in the senior class must take P.E. course number 900, then instead of going to each student individually, you can ask the program to give course 900 as a request to everyone in that year of graduation.

Requests can be added for selected students, a year of graduation, those assigned to a category/sub-category,or all students. In addition requests can be removed or replaced. Replacing course requests is used if a course is no longer being offered, but requests exist in the database.
