Change of Program

Use

Change of program is one of the activities you can perform for a student on the Registration tab page in the Student File . A change of program involves de-registration from the old program and registration in the new program.

When you create a change of program, the SAP System closes the open study segmentand creates a new study segment. When you create a change of program, you can simultaneously create a sessional registration (infotype 1771 for the study object).

Integration

The SAP System always links a student (object type ST) with a program (object type SC) via the internal study object (object type CS). The study object therefore contains all of the student’s program registration data. The SAP System therefore changes this data of the study object when you create a registration and de-registration.

The SAP System records the change-of-program activity you perform in an activity document which you can display on the Activity Documents tab page of the Student File . The Activity Documents tab page contains an overview of the activities for which the SAP System created an activity document .

Activities

To create a change of program for a student, proceed as follows:

  1. Choose the desired student in the Student File .

  2. On the Registration tab page, choose Program

  3. Choose the program the student wants to withdraw from.

  4. Choose a new program using the object manager, or enter the program directly in the New Program field.

  5. Choose Change of Program .

    The system displays a dialog box in which you can enter the change of program data. If you set the Create Sess. Registration flag in this dialog box, the SAP System will also create a sessional registration when it creates the new study segment.
