Requirement Categories Tab
Requirement Categories tab
The Requirement Categories tab provides a tabled listing of all of the created categories and cross-lists the ACourse/IFlag for each category, including search/view, enable/disable, edit a category name, edit category courses, create/auto create a category, and delete a category.
A category may consist of multiple courses; a single course may only appear in one category. |

Click the Auto Create Categories button () to automatically create requirement categories based upon current Glossary Messages and then assign ACourses/IFlags:
You may opt to use either the beginning or the end of the Glossary Message for the requirement category name:
- The beginning of the message
- The end of the message
80 character maximum character count on categories–either the first or last 80 characters, depending upon selection. |
After the new categories are auto created, we recommend reviewing category names in the column. Also, associate the Message ID with it. Be sure to edit the category name to ensure it makes sense, if necessary. Otherwise, these go into the student app and may not be refined for the end user.
