All of the details related to an Advising Requirement Code are defined and maintained on this window.
There are two methods that can be used for grades on the Advising Requirement Detail window and on the Maintain Advising Tree Table:
· Identify the Grade Needed by entering the appropriate grade (which will take precedence over the second method). The system allows you to only enter the Grade Needed without specifying the Grade Scale Needed and Grade Type Needed.
· Leave the Grade Needed column blank. When the column is left blank, the Advising engine looks at the Grades window in Registration and, if the Satisfies Advising Requirement checkbox is selected, determines that the requirement has been met by this student.
If Root appears in the Cluster column, the Relation Type will automatically default to AND. Also, depending on the Cluster Code and whether or not a Quality Points Needed value has already been entered, the Grade Needed columns may not be editable (display only). |

You cannot change an Advising
Requirement Type of ROOT
or GROUP
to any other Advising Requirement Type if it is utilized in at
least one institutional requirements tree. If this is the case,
you will receive the following message: "Sorry, this ROOT
requirement is currently utilized in at least one institutional
requirements tree; therefore, the advising requirement type and
cluster code cannot be modified."
If you have experience building Trees in Advising, you may have come across the error “Unable to retrieve parent handle.” This error most often occurs when the ARC Type of a ROOT or GROUP has been changed after that specific ARC had already been built into a Tree. |

The Grade Table Lookup option is available by right-clicking on the Grade Needed column. When you select the desired row from the Grade Table Lookup window, you may double-click the row or choose the OK button to copy all of the values into the grade columns. The system allows you to only enter the Grade Needed without specifying the Grade Scale Needed and Grade Type Needed.
