titleInternal Course Transfer - taking the same scheduled unit in both courses

Internal course transfer where the student is taking the same scheduled unit in both courses

When a student undertakes an internal course transfer, where they are undertaking the same unit in both courses, then care must be taken to avoid triggering a duplicate record TCSI validation error. This applies when the student has one or more unit

Recommended Workflow:

The recommended workflow is to trigger a “TCSI Delete” on the unit enrolment from the original course, prior to creating the unit enrolment in the new course. Do not attempt to transfer the unit enrolment directly between course enrolments within Paradigm as that is likely to just trigger multiple validation errors.

If you happen to transfer already the units, manually mark each of the units under the new course as RPL/Exempt/Credit. This is most efficiently done via the screen located: Student > Course Enrolment > Units section of Paradigm. Refer to the instructions found in this Confluence workflow: Processing RPL or Credit with an existing unit enrolment

Raise a ticket if the above solutions are not applicable to your case.
