Scheduling Upate: Scheduling classes on multiple campus locations

There has been an increasing trend in departments scheduling classes on multiple campus locations (East Bank, West Bank, and/or St. Paul). Please remember when entering your data for fall 2013 (1139) and spring 2014 (1143) that setting a campus location is a two step process involving two equally important fields.

  1. Location field: make sure the location field on the Basic Data panel in ECS is set to the correct campus location (it defaults to East Bank). This is the field that populates on the Class Schedule.
  2. Room characteristic: make sure you select East Bank, West Bank, or St. Paul as a room characteristic on the Meetings panel in ECS. This is the field that informs OCM Scheduling where you want the class to meet.
