CC.004.6 Honors & Awards (Project Archive)
User Acceptance Test Overview
The Honors & Awards process is used to assign quarterly honors (e.g., President's Honor Roll, Dean's List, etc.) to students in batch. Please note that degree honors are processed using the Student Degrees and graduation functionality. This Honors and Awards process is only used for quarterly awards.
The information below is intended to provide colleges guidance on performing a User Acceptance Test on this business process. The business process shown in the flow diagrams below may be only part of what is needed to complete an end-to-end test of a full business cycle. Coordination with other colleagues at your college in advance of commencing testing is key to success. In the same way that it doesn't take a single individual to operate the business of running a college it will require coordination across departments to successfully test a business flow from beginning to end.

Tam Nguyen
Hello,
I use to be able to run a job and post honors for the whole student population from Honors and Awards but it looks different this quarter and I'm unable to do so now. Has something change? How can I proceed?
