The new Class Permission page

The Class Permission page in PeopleSoft allows staff with access to fine tune the restrictions of individual permission numbers. When a user goes into the Class Permissions page, they will see this:

In the Defaults section, it appears that permission numbers have all of the available overrides checked, however, this is misleading. The Defaults section is used, rather, to indicate which restrictions any new permissions numbers generated by the user will, by default, override.

To see what each existing permission number will override, click on either the Permissions tab or the “show all fields” icon. In the example below, the permission number is set to override Requisites Not Met and Consent Required restriction.

Here, staff can alter the ‘Permission Valid For’ checkboxes for individual permission numbers. In this example to, perhaps, allow a student into a closed class or into a class outside of the student’s career restriction.

More information on class permissions can be found in the Class Permissions UPK topics, by clicking ‘Help’ from a PeopleSoft page.
