How the class waitlist process will work after the Upgrade

The class waitlist process is undergoing some major process changes as a result of the Upgrade. We would like to provide some additional information and resources to guide you and your students through this transition.

Background

Currently, students usually find an alternate class, add themselves on the desired class waitlist if one exists, and wait for a spot to open up. If a seat becomes available, they would be invited to enroll in the class from the department offering the class. The invitation includes a permission number that allows them to register. With that in hand, they then have the opportunity to adjust their enrollment to avoid time conflicts before registering for the desired class.

What’s changing?

The new class waitlist process eliminates the invitation step and automatically enrolls students when seats open. Students will receive an email if they are successfully enrolled from the waitlist. However, this auto-enroll process will not complete if the student was added to the waitlist and is enrolled in another class that has a time overlap. Instead, they will receive a notification alerting them that there was a conflict. The student can then resolve the conflict by dropping the other class before the auto enroll process starts again.

Along with the auto-enroll class waitlist process, the University will begin using delivered functionality that allows students to have the system automatically drop them from a conflicting class if a seat becomes available for them. Rather than placing themselves to the waitlist from the “Add” function, they will use the “Swap” functionality in the enroll tab. This will place them on the waitlist (that can be prioritized by faculty or departments), but in a way that tells the system to drop them from the conflicting class if a seat becomes available for them in the desired class.

What’s the timeline?


  • During the systems interruption (approximately April 10-20): Students will be unable to add or remove themselves from waitlists. An email will be sent the week of April 13 to Twin Cities students who are currently on a waitlist informing them that they will be unable to add or remove themselves from a waitlist during the system down time and what the process will be after the Upgrade. They will be directed to the how to guides on the One Stop website and to contact One Stop (or the Office of the Registrar in Crookston) with any questions. 
  • After go-live (April 20): The new auto-enroll process will start on Friday, May 1 for the Twin Cities campus. Students on a waitlist approximately two days prior to this will receive an email stating that the process is about to start, and if they do not wish to be auto-enrolled, they need to remove themselves from the waitlist immediately.

Prepare for Cutover

Since The Upgrade involves updating several complex systems in sequence, the systems cutover period will be longer than previous upgrades. Scheduled for April 10 - 20, PeopleSoft and related systems will be unavailable or in view-only mode. Here is how to prepare:

Human Resource Systems



Finance Systems



Student Systems



Portal (myU and MyU)



Reporting



Important Notice

The systems may be temporarily slow during the early days after launch because they are pulling in upgraded access profile information. Plus, the backlog of work will likely cause high traffic. So, expect things to take longer, and be patient as you learn new navigation and processes.

Changes to Parent/Guest Access to student accounts

The Upgrade will include a new Parent/Guest Access system. This new system will be easier to access, transactions will be easier for parents to complete, and One Stop counselors will have the same view as the user, making questions and issues easier to resolve.

The current system will be taken offline at 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday, April 8. When the Upgrade is complete (scheduled for April 20), the new Parent/Guest Access system will be available.

What’s changing?

There are two important changes for Parent/Guest Access:

  • Students will share grade information by granting access to their unofficial transcript.
  • Parent/Guest Access will be system-wide. That means if a student has attended more than one University of Minnesota campus, the access to the student record will include information from all campuses attended.


What do I need to do now?


  • Students should review the access they currently have set up. This is the access that will be converted to the new Parent/Guest Access system during the Upgrade - with one exception:
    • If you are a student who has provided access to grades but not holds, be aware that your parent/guest will not have access to grades after go-live. If you grant access to holds now, they will have access to your unofficial transcript after the Upgrade is complete. 
  • If you are a student (or the parent of a student) who has initiated the Parent/Guest Access process, be sure it is completed before April 8 at 4:30 p.m. (if not, the student will need to start over in the new system).


What do I need to do when the Upgrade is complete?


  • Students are encouraged to review their shared information settings. To do this, go to myu.umn.edu > My Info > Parent/Guest Access > Share My Information. 
  • Parents should review and confirm their access. To do this, go to myu.umn.edu > Key Links > Parent/Guest Access.


Background

Parent/Guest Access must be granted by the student in order for a parent or guest to access the details or to view and make payments for the student’s account. Students can grant access (allowing parents/guests full access to view the student account and complete online billing and payment) or view-only access to things such as class schedule, financial aid, holds, and unofficial transcripts. No level of access allows the parent or guest to request an official transcript, register for classes, respond to the eFAAN, or update student personal information.

Frequently Asked Questions: Impacts of the Upgrade for Student systems

The Student workstream is maintaining an FAQ on the impacts of the Upgrade on Student systems. It covers questions related to registration, student account billing, financial aid, admissions, and more.

Some examples:

  • When will the registration web application be turned off? 
  • Will students be able to get copies of their transcripts? 
  • When is the last time students can pay tuition and fees online? 
  • Can students get/print copies of their 1098-T form during the cutover period? 
  • When is the last disbursement date [for financial aid]? 
  • How will the orientation sign-up process be affected by the cutover? 
  • Will students still be admitted during the cutover? 
  • When is the last time that staff can add or remove service indicators?
Read the entire FAQ.

Information is being updated with more details as they are known. Questions and answers will be added as needed. If you have a question not answered by the FAQ, send an email to upgrade@umn.edu

Changes to class registration dates

To accommodate the planned Upgrade cutover and Go Live periods in April, class registration timing is changing. Most registration periods will be held earlier than previously published (as noted below) to ensure students can successfully register for May, summer, and fall terms.

May/Summer
Fall
Crookston
  • 3/23-4/2 queued registration
  • 4/24 open enrollment
Duluth
  • 3/2
Morris
  • 3/18
Rochester
  • 3/9
Twin Cities
  • 3/9 for degree-seeking students
  • 5/1 open enrollment
Crookston
  • 3/23-4/2 queued registration
  • 4/24 open enrollment
Duluth
  • 3/16 Medicine & Pharmacy students
  • 3/23-4/3 queued registration
  • 4/23 open enrollment
Morris
  • 3/30-4/2 queued registration
  • 4/23 open enrollment
Rochester
  • 3/23-4/4 queued registration
    (including evenings & weekends)
  • 5/1 open enrollment
Twin Cities
  • 3/23-4/4 queued registration
    (including evenings & weekends)
  • 5/1 open enrollment

There will also be a change to how the registration queue will be created:
  • Stages will be defined based only on cumulative credit total (completed and in-progress credits) only. 
  • Stage definition will differ by campus. Details will be published on respective campus websites soon. 
  • Students will then be randomized within those stages.
This is how the queue will be created once the Upgrade is complete, but due to the positive feedback received regarding this change, we were able to implement it now. For Twin Cities and Rochester students only, registration appointment times will extend into the evenings and weekends to accommodate a shortened timeframe.

Due to the random assignment of registration appointments to students within each defined stage, previously available tables of appointment times by student name will not be published. Students will be able to look up their registration appointment time using the “Your registration time” application for their campus.

Undergraduate students should expect an email with their registration appointment time approximately two weeks prior to the start of queued registration on their campus. There will also be additional communications to students alerting them to these changes starting as early as February 9.

What's Changing?

  • U Catalogs will remain 
  • Course descriptions will be able to include URLs 
  • The Course Guide will be retired 
After The Upgrade, students will have many ways of finding course and class information when they search for classes. Course descriptions from University catalogs--the public source for all academic offerings--will appear in class search results. 

Additionally, faculty, instructors, and their proxies will be able to add a website address with additional course or syllabus information to appear in the class notes section of class search results. This ability to include a website address is the replacement option for the Course Guide, which will be retired after The Upgrade.

Faculty and student groups, collegiate and department administrators, and technology staff were consulted at length about the technical limitations of the Course Guide, and the significant resources needed to maintain it. Ultimately, the Student Team made the decision to retire the Course Guide with the support of those consulted. All academic offerings will still be publicly available in University catalogs at http://www.catalogs.umn.edu/.

Read about ending the Course Guide, and adding URLs to course descriptions.

Training will be delivered online, accessible at Upgrade Training & Education. You can also reach out to your area's Advance Team members for additional information.

A farewell to the final grading application

As the semester comes to a close and the PeopleSoft Upgrade prepares for a scheduled launch in April 2015*, many current systems will be used for the last time. For example, this fall will be the last time that faculty, instructors, and their proxies use the current final grading system. When The Upgrade goes live, grade entry (mid-term grades, final grades, and grade changes) will change. Here are some highlights:



More information and resources will be provided to faculty and instructors closer to the final grading periods for spring semester.

Watch the Student Systems Preview

In October, Student Systems Preview Sessions were held on all campuses to share training information, give demonstrations of the new MyU, the new Faculty Center, the new Advisor Center, and explain key processes (e.g., permission numbers, batch processing of service indicators and student groups, academic standing).

If you missed these sessions and are interested in the content, view an edited recording of one of the presentations (the accompanying handout is also available). The recording is less than 40 minutes and will help those with access to the Student Systems (i.e., Campus Solutions) prepare for the changes coming with the Upgrade.

After the Upgrade: When do I register for classes?

When The Upgrade goes live in spring semester, one of the first process changes students will notice is how they find out their registration time (a.k.a. registration queue time). Currently, students go to the One Stop website and use an interactive tool that provides personal enrollment timing information based on their student record. After Go Live, it will simply be part of the Academics tab in MyU!

New UM Reports List web page

What’s happening to the reports you use to do your job?


Following up on the blog post entitled ‘ESUP Questions...Is UM Reports Going Away?’, ESUP has published a new web page to help faculty and staff find out what’s happening to their favorite UM Reports.


The UM Reports List web page includes background content about the connection between reports and their associated business process and a link to a spreadsheet listing reports affected by ESUP with:

  • Tabs for UM Reports from the Finance, HRMS, and Student systems
  • Report numbers and descriptions
  • Information about what’s happening to each report as a result of ESUP
  • Where to find the report after the scheduled systems launch in April 2015*

“The UM Reports list begins to answer the questions many UM Report users have been asking - Which reports are staying? Which reports are being replaced with new PeopleSoft tools? and Which reports are being retired?,” said Mary Keenan, UMD director of Strategic Enrollment and Institutional Research and member of the Enterprise Data Management and Reporting Steering Committee. “Like most UM Report users, I have my go-to reports. It’s helpful to review the list to check on their status,” added Keenan.

Additionally, visitors to the page will find two short videos and a job aid about the new Reporting Center including:

  • a two-minute sneak peek introducing the new center as a consolidated catalog of reports coming from UM Reports, UM Analytics, and PeopleSoft
  • a nine-minute demonstration giving a deeper view into how people will access the center and find the reports they need
  • a one-page job aid with call-outs highlighting its features 

Please visit the new page to learn more about what’s happening to UM Reports and email esup@umn.edu if you have any questions.

Stop, drop, & enroll

It’s registration time and students are anxiously awaiting their opportunity to select classes for the next term. They wait for their enrollment appointment time (currently called “queue time”) to arrive and keep tabs on the classes they want. They hope those classes remain open (have seats available), but sometimes all the seats are taken and the class is closed when it is their time to register. Then what?

Currently, students usually find an alternate class, add themselves on the desired class waitlist if one exists, and wait for a spot to open up. If a seat becomes available, they would be invited to enroll in the class from the department offering the class. The invitation includes a permission number that allows them to register. With that in hand, they then have the opportunity to adjust their enrollment to avoid time conflicts before registering for the desired class.


The new waitlist process, as a result of the PeopleSoft upgrade, eliminates the invitation step and automatically enrolls students when seats open. However, this auto enroll process will not complete if the student was added to the waitlist and is enrolled in another class that has a time overlap. Instead, they will receive a notification alerting them that there was a conflict. The student can then resolve the conflict by dropping the other class before the auto enroll process runs again.

But there is a better way.


Along with the auto enroll waitlist process, the University will begin using delivered functionality that allows students to have the system automatically drop them from a conflicting course if a seat becomes available for them. Rather than placing themselves to the waitlist from the “Add” function, they will use the “Swap” functionality in the enroll tab. This will place them on the waitlist (that can be prioritized by faculty or departments), but in a way that tells the system to drop them from the conflicting class if a seat becomes available for them in the desired class.


If students use this “Swap” functionality, they have a streamlined waitlist experience and  be able to maintain a full-time schedule as they wait for their desired classes. Best of all, students will be able to determine when to use this swap functionality because they will have a new weekly view of their schedule. This will show them when there are time conflicts with their enrolled and waitlist classes!


If you have questions about this new functionality email esup@umn.edu.

Nearly 400 attend ESUP update at All-HR meeting on Twin Cities campus

Photo of University of Minnesota All HR Meeting
University of Minnesota All HR Get-Together
Nearly 400 people, including 188 online, participated in the All HR Get-Together: An Enterprise Systems Upgrade Program Update for HR Professionals on Aug. 7 on the Twin Cities campus. The three-hour meeting gave human resources, finance and other professionals from the University’s five campuses a comprehensive update about ESUP, which is scheduled to go live in April 2015*. Participants also had the opportunity to ask detailed questions of several panelists.

The Get-Together included a welcome by Human Resources Vice President Kathy Brown, as well as an overview of ESUP by Executive Program Director Dennis Wenzel. The gathering also featured presentations by representatives of the three major workstreams -- Lori Lamb (Human Resources Management System), Susan Van Voorhis (Student) and Mike Volna (Finance). It also included presentations highlighting the major PeopleSoft 9.2 upgrade changes that will affect the Human Resources Management System (HRMS), including the areas of position management, recruiting solutions, appointment structure, benefits, payroll accounting, electronic time and absence reporting, and the reporting center.


Those attending also heard an update about the new MyU portal that plans to launch in April as part of the upgraded systems. Amanda Wolford of Leadership and Talent Development provided an overview of the training plan and how-to resources that will be available to all employees before, during and after Go Live.

the audience.

Vice President Brown thanked the entire ESUP team and noted that it’s due to their dedication, hard work and collaboration that the upgrade remains on budget and on time for its planned April launch. She also highlighted the important contributions that several groups have made to the HRMS Upgrade, including Subject Matter Experts, Functional Steering Committee members, HR Stars and HR Leads.

“This major technology upgrade will touch virtually all areas of our University and its five campuses,” Brown said. “It’s a critically important effort that will improve how we conduct business, how we serve students, and how we contribute to Minnesota and beyond. We have a great team, and I know the HRMS and ESUP initiatives will continue to more forward successfully. Keep up the great work!”

Making the Grade with ESUP - New NR "grade" provides clarity, helps streamline process

After a term filled with assignments, tests, and class participation, the final step in assigning grades is entering the grade to post to students’ records. In order to submit these grades on the final grade roster, a grade must be assigned to every student.* Occasionally, a barrier arises in assigning a grade to a student. When that happens, the entire grade roster cannot be submitted and all students in the class don’t receive a grade and instead see a blank space. This can be confusing and frustrating for students who may experience negative consequences of not having a posted grade for their class work (e.g., delayed graduation, reduced financial aid, limits on athletic participation).

These blank grades will be eliminated and more students will have their assigned grade posted as a result of ESUP.


While the final grade roster must still be complete in order to be submitted by the instructor of record, those students with a grade assigned will have their grade posted to their record. The key for this to happen is a new administrative mark of “NR” (meaning Not Reported). 


Taking the place of a blank grade (and carrying all of the same consequences), the NR grading symbol clarifies that there was no report of the grade for the students who have it. The NR grading symbol will not be available for faculty and staff to enter into the grade roster. Rather, an administrative process will be initiated after the grading due date to assign this symbol to students on the roster without a grade assigned. This process will complete the roster that can then be posted. 


This new administrative process (that is in-line with the University’s peer institutions) will:


  • Enable students in classes where rosters were incomplete to view their grades more quickly (since they won’t have to wait for the entire class to be graded before grades are posted) 
  • Help advisers during academic progress reviews 
  • Help academic and student services when students ask why no grades are posted
  • Help clarify for financial aid and veterans affairs that there was no grade reported from the instructor

Read more about what is changing with final grading on the What’s Changing page. To learn more about the new Faculty Center (where all grade entry and approval takes place) see the Faculty Center sneak peek. If you have any questions or concerns, email esup@umn.edu

* Another system (called supplemental grading) does allow for submitting individual grades for students, but it is intended for grade changes, not the submission of the final grade roster. After the PeopleSoft upgrade is complete, all grade entry and submission (including mid-term grades, final grades, and grade changes) will happen in one place: the Faculty Center.

Sneak Peek: The new class waitlist process

The Student work stream has released its latest sneak peek. This video explains the “auto enroll” feature of the new class waitlist process resulting from the PeopleSoft upgrade through ESUP. Auto enroll will allow the system to automatically select and enroll students at the top of a waitlist for a class on a space-available basis. Watch to learn more:
