Use the column to limit the number of times the student can register for the course.

(The default for all catalog courses is set along with other Open Entry settings on the Registration Configuration window | Registration Configuration tab.)

Catalog courses are active by default. You can deselect the Active checkbox as a way of flagging the catalog course as inactive on the Catalog Master table (catalog_master.active_inactive_st). Being inactive doesn't have built-in functionality. For example, users can still create sections from an inactive catalog course.

If you enter a date in this optional field, it lets users know that the catalog course is approved (as of this date), and they can create sections for year/terms as needed.

The field doesn't have functionality to allow or prevent sections from being created or scheduled, but it serves as a visual reminder. The date is stored on the Catalog Master table (catalog_master.dte_approved).

If you make a catalog course inactive (by deselecting the Active checkbox), you can enter a date here. Neither the checkbox nor the date has functionality; that is, they don't prevent users from creating or scheduling sections from the course, but they are visual reminders.

The date is stored on the Catalog Master table (catalog_master.inact_discont_dte).

This checkbox appears if your school is licensed for Scholarship GPA and if the Enable Add to Special GPA checkbox is selected on the Registration Configuration window.

Select the checkbox if sections made from this catalog course should by default be included in calculating Special GPA (also called Scholarship GPA).
