Edit or Delete Group Reports
Group Reports are used to create and display articulation agreements ("transfer pathways") and transfer guides between two institutions. Each Group Report is comprised of Groups, which contain equivalencies and optional explanatory text to help convey transfer information to students. These Groups can be reused and combined in any order in other Group Reports. Group Reports dynamically update to reflect changes made to a Group's equivalencies. This article provides instructions for editing or deleting a Group Report.
See Related Articles for instructions on creating and cloning Group Reports.
In this article:
Groups and Group Reports are created and stored at the institution level in the Equivalency Manager. To navigate there:
- Go to the Match menu.
- Select Equivalency Manager.
All institutions where the user's college or university has established equivalencies will be listed. If a Group Report was created, a checkmark will appear to the right of the institution name in the GROUP REPORTS? column and - if selected - will take the user to those reports.
Similarly, a checkmark within the GROUPS? column indicates that a Group exists for that institution, and if selected, it will navigate the user to the Group(s).
Users can sort by institutions that have established Groups or Group Reports by selecting the named header twice.
Edit a Group Report
- Select the INSTITUTION name.
- Use the INSTITUTION SEARCH, letter, or page indexes to navigate.
- Equivalencies for the selected institution will appear within a list.
- Select the Groups button.
- Choose the Select a group report button to the left of the Group Report name.
Edit the Group Report Header
To change the GROUP REPORT NAME, PUBLIC VIEW DISPLAY? setting, or SUBHEADER TEXT:
- Select Edit Group Report Header.
- Adjust the content within the EDIT GROUP REPORT DETAIL pop-up where needed.
Field | Description |
Group Report Name | The name of the Group Report. The name will appear in all uppercase once saved. 255 character limit. |
Public View Display? | This checkbox controls the display of the Group Report within the Public View. The default setting is blank (do not display). The best practice is to leave the box unchecked until the report is complete (and approved internally for display). |
Subheader Text (optional) |
A note within the Group Report that is used to convey information to students. This note is generally explanatory text explaining the report or requirements for admission. 2,048 character limit. |
Institutions can use Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) to bold, underline, and italicize text and create paragraph breaks in the Subheader Text. For further information, see HTML Tags for Group and Group Report Customization under Related Articles.
- Select Submit.
Add Groups
- Select the Add course group button to the left of each Group to be added to the Group Report.
- Important: Groups must be added in the order they should display in the report. Groups cannot be "moved up" or "moved down." If Groups need to be rearranged in a different order, they must be deleted and readded in the desired order.
As Groups are added, they will display in the ADDED COURSE GROUPS column.
Remove Groups
To remove a Group from a Group Report:
- Select the Delete course group button.
- A pop-up will note that performing this action only removes the Group from the report. It does not delete any underlying course equivalencies or groups. This action cannot be undone.
- Select OK to confirm and proceed with the deletion.
