Credit on Final Mark Scenario
The following rules apply when you issue credit on the Final mark:
- Credit issues on a Once-Per-Year mark type.
- Each course in the Master Schedule should have this mark type as well as a mark type that is issued multiple times per year, such as MP.
- Credit calculates on the local course and moves to the state course when you run the Build Course Equivalencies (BCE) option.
- On the PEIMS Course page, every course must have a single-digit course sequence code. Typically, the sequence will be 1, 2, or 0.
