Walk-In Scheduler Updates (SIS-126723) [Enhancement] 

The following modifications have been made to Student Schedule and Walk-In Scheduler:

• The total count of students scheduled into a course section was displaying incorrectly in situations where a student begins a course section at a future date. This has been corrected.
• When a course already exists on a student's transcript and that same course exists in the list of Courses Requests or is searched for and attempted to be placed on the schedule, a warning message displays indicating it already exists on the student's transcript. In order for this message to display, the Course Number must exist on the Transcript and the Course must not be marked as Repeatable.
• When restoring an entire schedule, only the most recently ended course sections are restored. If a course was ended in January and another course was ended yesterday, only the course ended yesterday is restored.
• When loading courses to a student's schedule, the Load Rosters modal now includes a Start Date.
• In the Requests Panel, requested courses are now listed by Course Number, then by the type of request (Required, Elected, Alternate). Alternate courses are listed in Request ID order, meaning the course that is first added as an alternate is listed first.
• When searching for courses, the entered date remains after adding a course. If an additional course is searched for and added to the schedule, that same date applies to the additional course.
• When adding a course in a future term, the Effective Date field is blank. When adding a course in the current term, the Effective Date field defaults to the current date.

Duplicate Calendar Names (SIS-96446)

Calendar Names must now be unique within a school year. Logic has been updated within the Calendar Attributes tab and Calendar Wizard to prevent duplication of the calendar name.

Calendar Wizard: Before creating a calendar, logic verifies a calendar does not already exist with that name. If that name does not exist, the calendar is created utilizing the specified name label template (e.g., 2018-19 Community Education Co). If that name does exist, the template is modified slightly to a 28 character label with an appended space and numbered 1-9 (e.g., 2018-19 Community Education 1).

Calendar Attributes: When modifying the name of an existing calendar, logic verifies that the name does not already exist. If it does, an error message displays indicating the calendar name must be unique.
