This rule is used to validate:

• Credits Attempted

To perform this validation, the following information is used:

• Organization Code (Course Permission)
• Section School Year
• First School Year (Credit Version)
• Last School Year (Credit Version)
• Use Course Effective Dates
• Effective Start Date (Credit Version)
• Effective End Date (Credit Version)
• Credit Version
• Course Enrolment Start Date
• Course Enrolment End Date

The Credits Attempted on the course enrolment must equal the credit that the organization has permission to on the Course Permission for the organization on the enrolment as of the school year of the Section on the course enrolment.

This rule is effective as of the 2012/2013 school year.

A course code may be used on a course enrolment record where the organization on the record has permission to offer that course for the credits specified on that course enrolment’s section school year. If they don’t have permission on that timeframe, this rule fails.

Where no Course Permission exists for the course, credit version and organization, this rule should fail.

“No permission” means:

• No A.* permission exists with a null credit version OR
• No permission record exists for the organization on the course enrolment or its authority OR
• A permission record exists for the organization on the section or its authority, but not for the timeframe and/or credit level.
• No permission record exists at all.

Where null Credit Version exists on the Course Permissions record:

• If the following is true, this rule passes. Otherwise, this rule fails:
  • Permission organization code = A.* AND
  • the School Year for the course enrolment (via the section) is equal to or within the course authorization First School Year and Last School Year values AND
  • an authorization that is effective as of the School Year for the course enrolment (via the section) exists matching the Credits Attempted on the course enrolment record.
• If the following is true, this rule passes. Otherwise, this rule fails:
  • Permission organization code <> A.* AND
    • If the organization code is an authority, all schools within that authority inherit the permission.
    • If the organization code is a school, that school has permission
  • the School Year for the course enrolment is equal to or within the course authorization First School Year and Last School Year values AND
  • an authorization that is effective as of the School Year for the course enrolment exists matching the Credits Attempted on the course enrolment record.

Where Credit Version information is included on the Course Permissions record, one of the following must be true for the rule to pass:

• Option A
  • organization code = A.* AND
  • Permission was granted to the organization for the credit level and timeframe:
    • If UseEffectiveDates? = Yes on the permission, the Course Enrolment Start Date must be equal to or fall within the permission credit version Effective Start Date and Effective End Dates.
    • If UseEffectiveDates? = No on the permission, the School Year for the section on the course enrolment must be equal to or within the course permission credit version First School Year and Last School Year values.
• Option B
  • organization code <> A.*:
    • If the organization code is an authority, all schools within that authority inherit the permission.
    • If the organization code is a school, that school has permission
  • Permission was granted to the organization for the credit level and timeframe:
    • If UseEffectiveDates? = Yes on the permission, the Course Enrolment Start Date and Course Enrolment End Date on the course enrolment must be equal to or fall within the permission credit version Effective Start Date and Effective End Dates with the credit value matching between the Credit Version value and the Credits Attempted on the course enrolment record.
    • If UseEffectiveDates? = No on the permission, the School Year for section on the course enrolment must be equal to or within the course permission credit version First School Year and Last School Year values with the credit value matching between the Credit Version value and the Credits Attempted value.
