admission code

0 Kudos

Hi gurus,

In student file>admission tab>create admission application, there is a field as "admission code".

In F4 definiton help SAP says;

"Admission Code

A n alphanumeric key up to twelve characters long identifies the student's admission.

Procedure

The values of the admission code are based on GPA, EQ, age and test scores. You have to set the admission codes for students manually because of the complexity of the rules. According to a students GPA and test scores, academic conditions can be tied to a student's admission."

But I could'nt imagine, figure out how I can use this.

Can anybody give me some explanation, sample for where to use?

If a make student to take an exam, and If I decide that which student can be enroll to a program according to result of this exam, can admission code help me executing this scenario? and how?

Ls,

You could use the admission code (free format in >Ehp5 and <Ehp5 you can use custom tables behind it*) as a datafield to be populated based on a web admission form. You can then use it as a extra decision field for the admission (audit) to decide an approval or a rejection.

*Ehp5 development:

Up to EHP 5 the field for Admissions Codes maintained on an Admissions record was a text

field without restrictions regarding text entry.

Admissions Code values that are valid for defined admissions statuses can be defined. Users can then only select fixed values rather than making a free-form entry.

When an Admissions Record status is changed from one value to another (e.g. u2018createdu2019 to u2018acceptedu2019, u2018rejectedu2019 to u2018createdu2019, etc.), the Admissions Code can be mapped and updated accordingly.

Dear Rob,

thank you so much for the answer

1... "as a datafield to be populated based on a web admission form"...then what is the difference between "admission code" and "notification number"?

2..."extra decision field for the admission (audit) to decide an approval or a rejection"...I understand that, this data totally dependent to me, I can fill it with any data I need. Right?

3..."Admissions Code values that are valid for defined admissions statuses can be defined."...or in a customized table I record pre-defined values and then use these values for all admission to track, report, manage, process all admissions. right?

thanks again,

B.R.

Hi B.R,

To briefly answer your questions:

1. Admission code is a free format or customizable (ehp5 on) entry. There the notification number is populated by the ISR framework if there is an online admission form filled in by a prospect student. Each admission (actually application, see also related tab in Student File) is an admission record in the admission tab with the corresponding notification number (ISR framework created notification number based on the admission).

2. Yes and you can still use the Subrequirement Badi to check on this field (custom filter). Of course only if you use predefined values.

Plus this can be a trigger of the admission event from the PPF (trx: BRF).

3. Yes, that is possible with the new Ehp5 developments.

Best regards,

Rob
