September 2 to September 6, 2024 Release Notes

Features & Improvements

Rather than release new features this week, we decided to rest on our laurels. But there's stuff coming down the pike.

Bugfixes

There are some so-called "edge cases" where a student has two of the same program, one active and the other inactive, and the active program also has an active degree. If you try to edit the old program for whatever reason, when you try to save it, Populi says it will also deactivate the degree. We added some logic changes to get Populi to leave the active degree alone if there is another active program.

Videos and Focus Sessions

Next week we have some Focus Sessions...

• ...like Introduction to Academics, a journey into academic years, terms, programs, degrees, the course catalog, course instances, enrollment, and so on. This will be most useful to Registrar and Academic Admin users. It's scheduled for September 10th, 2024, 11:00 AM Pacific time.
• ...and Introduction to Admissions, a foray into application settings, designing your application, processing applications, managing leads and so on. This will be most useful to Admissions and Admissions Admin users. It's scheduled for September 12th, 2024, 11:00 AM Pacific time.

Last week Josh took you on a quick trip through creating grade-only assignments. This week he takes you on a long journey into the same topic, going in-depth on all the aspects of this kind of assignment.
