Template Specifications
Once you have elected to add or modify Programs using this Bulk Upload type, you will have access to download the Programs Template. Once the Programs option has been chosen, a list of available actions connected to this workflow will become visible in the table below.
Take note of the actions available as you populate the template to process these changes.
The Template Specifications table, visible on the second half of this page, is also important to review. This table confirms the types of updates that can be made, the column descriptions, and whether the columns are required for the respective updates.
Populating the Template
The excel will be formatted to account for a program per row, along with columns representing all fields that could be populated for a program.
As you populate this template, take note of the following tabs embedded within the excel file:
- Field of Study choices
- Qualification choices
- Level choices
Available Actions
- Add New: Use this action if you are solely creating new programs
- Update Existing: Use this action if you are only looking to modify the information for existing programs
- Add new and update existing: Use this action if you are looking to simultaneously create new programs and modify existing programs
Note: When modifying program records, administrators will get the opportunity to decide whether the modifications included on the template should trigger a reapply of these changes to all sessions and session records. By default, this toggle is set to not reapply.
