Nov 28, 2016 – Dec 9, 2016
Continued working on Student 2 with a goal of fully transitioning and retiring STEP by early January 2017. Added a Tracked Issue feature which allows notes to be added to a student record and students with these notes to be highlighted in a Tracked Issue report. Additionally Tracked Issues are imported from applicant review (course work contingencies and application material contingencies) and generated automatically from low grades or low quarterly GPA.
Work Complete
Appreview
- Reformat user authorization screen with common role based permission on left and occasional add-on permissions on right.
- Added time submitted to application download CSV file to support application processing workflows.
Recruitment
- Work on RSVP form.
Student 2
- Added ECO to student data loaded from EDW and to program menu and report program filter.
- Changed default student report to Enrolled report. Report is filterable by program, degree and specific quarter (defaults to current quarter).
- Add cohort member count (number of students) to cohort index.
- Add CSS style to completed record (UW Gold with banner image) to make more visible.
- Student menu includes links to the last five student detail pages user viewed.
- Added student contact information to student detail. Daily job to query contact information from EDW. STEP Sync task that brings in job email and alumni email.
- Updated Program menu to display list of COE programs order by pathway and broken down by area. Program report shows students in program, default enrolled and inactive.
- Updated download CSV file to include contact information.
- Fixed doctoral committee import to store graduate school representative as GSR instead of Gsr.
- Implemented a strategy for updating from UW Student Web Service efficiently. Update runs nightly for last completed quarter, but only processes a quarter once and runs that single update 2 days after grades are due. Additionally only processes students who were enrolled last quarter.
- Tracked Issues entity built. Displays on student detail page in right side bar. Create, edit, resolve, delete forms.
- Resolved tracked issues are hidden by default. Summary is displayed ("3 resolved issues") which can be clicked to display the resolved issues.
- Tracked Issues report shows list of students with tracked issue. Report show single row per student with most recent report, but row is expandable when students have more tracked issues.
- Application review contingencies (material incomplete, required course work not complete) are imported into the student system as tracked issues. Appreview contingencies are only imported when a student enrolls.
- Tracked Issues for low course grade and low quarterly GPA are automatically created when UW Student Web Service enrollment history is processed. Done inital adjustment of this routine to only create tracked issues for students who are not complete and only create tracked issues during quarters student is enrolled in a COE major.
- System generated Tracked Issues can be deleted by staff. Logging system has record that these items were already created once and will not regenerate them.
Tech Support
- Added attachments to tickets. Attachments can be added through web interface after ticket is created or can be attached to email sent to system help addresses. Attachments appear as messages on tickets.
Infrastructure
- Fixed login/logout page (seen during Appreview External User login process) did not have correct menu styling. Improved the menu building to accept literal href values, simplifying menu declaration per application context.
- Generalized the configuration loader used by Student Requirements feature to populate system lookup tables. This will support more general implementations of our applications (e.g. easy to share with other units) and allow us to consistently update lookup data in various environments.
