Class Permissions - Batch Generation

Purpose: Use this document as a reference for generating class permission numbers in batch in ctcLink.

Audience: All staff

You must have the following local-college managed security role:

  • ZZ SR GEN ADD TRM

You must also set these SACR Security permissions:

If you need assistance with the above security roles or SACR settings, please contact your local college supervisor or IT Admin to request role access.

Supporting Information:

Users can generate permission numbers for an entire subject by selecting the desired amount of permission numbers in the run control settings. Because permission numbers are created for an entire subject, all run control settings must be carefully checked before processing. Manual clean-up per class will be the only solution if mistakes are made.

Batch Class Permissions

Navigation:  Records and Enrollment > Term Processing > Class Permissions > Generate Add Permissions

  1. The Generate Add Permissions search page displays.
  2. If you have run this process or report in the past, select the Find an Existing Value tab to enter an existing Run Control ID and select the Search button. If this is the first time running this process or report, select the Add a New Value tab to create a new Run Control ID and select the Add button. 
  3. NOTE: It is important to note that Run Control IDs cannot be deleted. Do not include spaces in your Run Control. We encourage the  Run Control ID to have the same process naming convention but unique to the step; because of this, including your institution code and a short process description in the Run Control ID is recommended--e.g., WA220_BATCH_PERMISSION_NBR.
