Advising Worksheet
Important
Information and features vary according to the roles to which you belong and the permissions associated with those roles. For more information, contact your module manager or your campus support team.
The Advising Worksheet is a report that shows all of the requirements for a student's aims, the courses that have been assigned to meet those requirements, and the requirements that are still unmet.
Advisees are listed one by one, and each advisee's section of the report shows their personal information, degree information, and advisee information. Then each aim is listed with its status (Met or Not Met), Hours Needed, and Hours Earned.
Settings for the Advising Worksheet are on the Advising Settings page on the Advising Administration hub.

In most cases, yes. Customized versions of the report created in Desktop before your school started using J1 Web should be available as options in the Report Layout drop-down. If your school created new customized layouts in Desktop and copied them to the appropriate location on the J1 Web server, those reports are also available in the drop-down.
However, certain reports were modified to be used in J1 Web (i.e., the base report for J1 Web is different from the base report in Desktop). In those cases, the customized versions from Desktop will not work even when they are moved to the correct location on the J1 Web server. You'll need to re-customize those reports from the original version of the J1 Web report by following the instructions to Customize Reports for J1 Web.
See the help for each report page for guidance about customizing a specific report.
For the customized versions of the report created in Desktop to appear as choices in the Report Layout field drop-down, your campus support team needed to complete certain steps as part of the installation process. For more information, contact your campus support team or see Working with Reports in J1 Web.
Tip
Only custom versions of the report created in Desktop before J1 Web installation will appear as choices in the Report Layout field drop-down. Reports customized in Desktop after you've installed J1 Web are not available in the drop-down unless they have been copied over to the appropriate location on the J1 Web server.
Verify the PowerBuilder Services URL is entered correctly in System Administration, System Settings, Product Installs and Sign page.
The URL must use HTTPS and not HTTP
The URL subdomain and domain must match the J1 Web URL
If the location where you store J1 Web reports is not the default installation location (C: > Jenzabar > Reports), verify the J1 Web server has permission to access the location. Detailed steps are available in the help topic Working with Reports in J1 Web.
