Improved Student Session Enrolments Workflow
The STUDENT > Course Enrolment > Units screen has been upgraded to make it easier to manage student session enrolments in bulk.
Additional functionality has been added to support ad-hoc session enrolments for when a specific student must be enrolled in sessions that would otherwise break the normal session enrolment constraints.
The screen now shows all sessions associated with active unit enrolments in a new section
Staff users may use this new section to perform admin tasks associated with session enrolments across multiple unit enrolments
Staff users may also use this new section to break the normal rules around session group and session class to accommodate unique student requirements
See the sample screenshot below. This section is under the CLASS TIMES of the Student >Course Enrolment > Units screen.
