Resource Guide: Schedule Validation Dashboard

about this guide

This resource guide provides an overview of navigating and filtering the Schedule Validation Dashboard. Built into UAccess, the dashboard displays all errors and warnings generated by logic-based rules for class sections that require validation.

The dashboard includes several filtering and sorting options, such as term and subject, to help users efficiently manage and review validation items. It allows users to identify sections within their academic organization that have triggered a rule, determine whether review is required, and track completion status.

Once a validation error or warning has been resolved, users can mark the item as complete. Any remaining errors or warnings will be reviewed as part of the overnight sync process. Any status updates generated by the system will appear after the next scheduled dashboard update.

To support accuracy and timely updates, automated weekly updates will be shared with Department Schedulers indicating when the outstanding errors on the Schedule Validation Dashboard require validation. 

Note: Warnings automatically expire after 14 days and assigned an Auto-Expire status on the dashboard. Errors that are marked complete by a user but still fail validation will reappear on the Schedule Validation Dashboard until the issue is resolved.
 

Navigating the dashboard

Step 1: Within the UA Schedule of Classes landing page, select UA Sched Validation Dashboard to view and manage the errors and warnings in designated class sections, if any.

Note: At any time, the navigation list can be minimized using the black Navigation Collection Tab to increase the workspace.

    • Completed: Errors or warnings that have been marked as complete by the user. 
    • Override: Warnings that have been marked with this status by a user that has acknowledged the warning but chose not to take action.
    • System Completed: Errors or warnings that were corrected but that status was not manually updated by the user before the next process run.
    • Auto-Expired: Warnings that remained unresolved for more than 14 days and have been auto-expired by UAccess.

 

After the sort criteria are applied, use the View link to navigate to the request for further processing as needed.

Schedule Validation Dashboard
editing and reviewing errors and warnings

Step 1:  Locate the section that needs review and select the View link to open it in the Schedule of Classes. The Message displayed on the dashboard identifies the Rule Sequence Number that was triggered and caused the section to appear on the Schedule Validation Dashboard. Users can reference the Message displayed to better understand the issue and the steps needed to resolve it.

Note: Users can only view and update validation items associated with their assigned academic organizations.

Step 2: Once an error or warning has been reviewed or resolved, choose the most appropriate status by selecting the drop down.

Options include: 

  • Completed: Available for Errors or Warnings; select this status when the identified issue is resolved in the dashboard. Please note that if a row is marked as Complete but the underlying data does not satisfy the logic-based rule, a new row with a status of Not Reviewed will be created the next time the process runs.
  • Override: Available for Warnings only; select this status to acknowledge the warning but have determined not to take action. This status option is helpful to declutter a user’s dashboard if they wish to leave warnings as they are. Warnings that are otherwise left as they are without a status update will auto-expire in 14 days.

Note: If an error or warning has been resolved but its status remains unchanged in the Schedule Validation Dashboard, it will be updated to System Completed during the next dashboard process update. Warnings that remain unresolved after 14 days will be automatically expired during a subsequent process update.
