Sessions are defined periods of time that can be either subsets or supersets of year/term combinations and allow for flexibility in reporting. A year code, multiple term codes, and/or multiple subterm codes can be associated with a Session Definition. A Session can even be defined as all time periods by not identifying any year, term, or subterm. Sessions are stored on the Session Master table via the Session Definition window.
Sessions are identified by a session code that can be up to 10 alphanumeric characters and an associated text description that can be up to 30 alphanumeric characters.
