- To make a course available for requests in HAC, check the Request from HAC box on the Scheduler Options panel in the course's Building Course Catalog record (Scheduling > Courses > Building Courses > Building Course Catalog > click Course link). If you use the District Course Catalog (Scheduling > Courses > District Courses > District Course Catalog, you can check the Request from HAC box in the district record. When you save the district course, the course's Scheduler Options panel for all buildings with the same building type will be updated, except in catalogs where the panel is protected from overwrites.
- Subject areas need to be assigned to courses in the Building and District Course Catalogs.
- If used, course sequences can determine whether students can request specific courses. Building-level sequences are set up in the Building Course Sequencing option (Scheduling > Courses > Building Courses > Building Course Sequencing > click Building link). District-level sequences are set up in the District Course Sequencing option (Scheduling > Courses > District Courses > District Course Sequencing).
- Students must be assigned to a Graduation Requirement Group defined for their years of graduation (Administration > Mark Reporting Setup > Calculation Setup > Graduation Requirements Setup). In addition, students may also be assigned to Supplemental Requirement groups.
- To use the Career Planner option, students' graduation requirements need to be calculated by running the Graduation Requirement Calculation (Mark Reporting > Utilities > Calculations > Graduation Requirements Calculation).
