PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT: iAdvise News and Tips – Use “assign” and “comment” in SAP cancellation flags!
The iAdvise Project Team has a tip for you:
As we move on in the summer, and you continue working with students on SAP cancellations, use the "assign'" and "comment" options to keep notes directly on the SAP Cancellation flag in iAdvise. It will help other advisors and coaches know that you are working with a student or you're taking action as part of the student's appeal! Here's how you can do it:
- Go to the "Tracking" section of the student's profile and hover over the flag icon for the SAP Cancellation flag;
- Once you hover over the flag icon you should be able to either assign the flag or comment on it as needed;
- Remember, that when assigning you can assign to yourself and you can do that with a contextualizing comment;
Also, our ongoing bonus tip about SAP status in iAdvise...
You can search SAP statuses by filtering:
- Go to the Attributes section of the Filter Dialog Box.
- Add the item "SAP" and select the option "Specific Value."
- Add the phrase "Bad" with asterisks on both sides = *Bad*
If you are working actively with a student, please assign the flag to yourself. Once a student has submitted their SAP Review Request or SAP Appeal, please re-assign the flag to OAD and we will watch for resolution.
