Audience: Student Records staff
You must have at least one of these local college managed security roles:
Academic Calendar
- ZD SACR Found Tbl Config Inq
- ZD SACR Term Config
- ZD SR Super User
- ZZ SACR Term Config
Batch Term Activation
- ZZ SR Batch Term Activation
If you need assistance with the above security roles, please contact your local college supervisor or IT Admin to request role access.
Term control dates established on the Academic Calendar (Term Calendar 3 tab) are carried down to a student's term record when the term is activated. Suppose you change one of the following dates on the Academic Calendar:
- Fully Enrolled Date
- Show Enrollment on Transcript Date
- Show Statistics on Transcript Date
- Fully Graded Date
A student's term record is "locked" to the original date(s) before the change. You must refresh the term control dates to update the student's term record with the new date(s). Follow the steps below to guide you through the process.

Grades have been posted, and your college would like student grades to appear on transcripts today, 12/17/2023, but the Academic Calendar date is 12/19/2023. In this regard, you will change the Fully Graded Date to 12/19/2023.

It was not possible to view the student's grades in the scenario. The Academic Calendar was updated to reflect an earlier Fully Graded Date. The term control dates were updated after running the Term Activation Batch Process. Consequently, the student's grades appear on the transcript.
