The APDB Component Units value is located in the APDB Mapping Values hyperlink on the Meetings tab in Maintain Schedule of Classes in OASIS.

Business Rules

The units value is a related display based on the unit range defined on Class Associations component. When first scheduling a course, the system populates the Associated Class field to 1 by default. Once the section is saved, the APDB Component Unit value is defaulted from the Course Catalog to the Associated Class and is displayed on the Schedule of Classes. If the class association unit range is modified, the assigned unit value is accurately reflected on the Schedule of Classes.

On subsequent pages within the Schedule of Classes, the unit range is displayed within the Class Sections group box.

Examples

  • 0.4
  • 0.5
  • 1.0
  • 1.1
  • etc.

For single component courses there is only one APDB Component Unit value. For multiple component courses, each component class section has a unique APDB Component Unit value that combined make up the total unit value of the course. For variable unit courses (i.e., 1-4 unit range), the APDB Component Unit value will be the selected unit value from the variable unit range.
