Conduct Case Status Definitions

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.

Conduct case status definitions are used to monitor the status of a case. J1 Web provides several default case status definitions, but you can also create custom definitions specific to your school's student conduct policies and procedures.

Permissions Required

To manage conduct case status definitions, you must be in the Student Conduct Administrator or Student Life Module Manager role (or a role copied from one of those roles) with the "Can manage conduct case status definitions" permission enabled.

Default Conduct Case Status Definitions

The following definitions are system-provided defaults. You can edit the Active status for these definitions, but you cannot change the code or description or delete them.

OPEN: The case is open.
CLOSED: The case has been closed.
APPEAL: The case is currently in appeal.
PENDING: A decision about the case is pending.
SANGIVEN: A sanction has been applied.
SANINPROG: A sanction is in progress.

Database Location

Conduct case status definitions are stored in the ConductCaseStatusDefinitions table.

Where Conduct Case Status Definitions Are Used

Conduct Case Status definitions are available as menu options when users update the status of a case.

How To

View Conduct Case Status Definitions

On the Student Conduct Administration Hub page, click the Hub options drop-down and select Manage definitions > Conduct case status definitions. The Conduct Case Status Definitions page opens, displaying both the system defaults and any non-default definitions created for your institution.

For each definition, the list displays the code, a brief description, and whether or not the definition is active.

Default definitions are indicated by a lock icon and are highlighted in orange.

To narrow the list, enter characters, words, or phrases in the Quick Filters field and select Add '[your search term]'. You can apply more than one filter.
To sort the list by a particular column, click the column heading.

Edit Order

The Edit Order options let you set the order in which definitions appear in drop-down menus.

Click the Edit Order button. The Edit Order window opens.
You can change the order of definitions using either the Sort By and Order By drop-down menus or by dragging and dropping the definitions into your preferred order.
1. Sort By and Order By:
  1. From the Sort By drop-down, select the column you want to sort by.
  2. From the Order By drop-down, select Ascending or Descending.
2. Drag and drop:
  1. Hold your cursor over the vertical arrow icon on the left side of the row until the cursor changes to a hand icon.
  2. Click and hold while you drag the definition to the new location.
  3. Release the mouse button.
3. Click Update.
After you click Update, your changes are saved in the following ways:
- The definitions are listed in the saved order whenever they appear in drop-down menus (where a user selects from the list of definitions).
- If the definitions are used in calculations or rules where priority matters, the definitions are now in your saved order of priority.
- The definitions page is now sorted according to your changes.

On the Conduct Case Status Definitions page, click the Edit icon for the definition you need to edit. The Edit Conduct Case Status Definitions pop-up opens.
If you are editing a non-default definition, update the Description as needed.

The Delete Definitions? pop-up lists the selected definitions in two categories:
- Ready to Delete: Definitions that can be deleted.
- Unable to Delete: Definitions that can't be deleted, either because they're in use or are protected by the system.

Workbook Creation Options: This option lets you choose how you want the data to be organized when it's exported. If you are exporting a large number of rows, you may want to separate the data into different worksheets or even workbooks. Once you select this option, the Separate (Sheets or Workbooks) By drop-down becomes available so you can choose the groupings for each worksheet or workbook.
Separate (Sheets or Workbooks) By: This field becomes available when you choose to organize your export into multiple worksheets or workbooks. In general, you'll have the option to separate the data based on the columns. You will only see options for the visible columns.
Notice
For example, if you are exporting a set of definitions, you might choose to organize the data into two workbooks: one for active definitions, and one for inactive definitions. Do this by selecting the "Active" column in this drop-down. All of your rows designated as active will be in one workbook, and the inactive ones in a separate workbook.
Workbook Format: This section lets you set some Excel display options for your data. For more information about each of these features, consult Microsoft Excel help.
Autofit columns: Fits column width to the data so that fields are not truncated.
Turn on filtering: Turns on the AutoFilter feature, which allows you to show only rows that meet your selected criteria.
Freeze Top Row: Your worksheet displays the column title in the first row by default. Selecting this option keeps the top row at the top so that as you scroll down through your data, the column headings remain displayed.
Show totals for numeric columns: This option will include the sum of a column of numbers at the bottom of that column.
Columns to Include: These options are specific to the page you are viewing, so they will vary. You will only see options for columns that you can see on the page. All of the columns are selected by default, but you can deselect any of the columns you don't want to include.
