Hello SAH Developers - The below enhancements are available for you in Production. 

Keep up with our future enhancements here: SAH Bugs and Enhancements In Progress. 

For access to the Student Activity Hub (SAH) you must be pre-approved by the registrar's office.  Please reach out to them directly.


Renaming and Deprecating

As we've adapted the SAH views to your needs, we have found changing field names is painful for both report developers and our team due to the name change breaking reports, data integrations and packages / data sources.  In an effort to avoid this pain, we are going to introduce a new name change strategy. 

  1. ITS-BIA will release new fields with the revised field name in the views that contain the field to be renamed, or where a view is to be renamed ITS-BIA will release as a new view the view with the revised name.

  2. ITS-BIA will allow a transition period for report developers to repoint their reports at the new fields / views.

  3. ITS-BIA will remove the data from the old fields / views and allow a second transition period.  This will not break the report but will highlight where the fields / views are still in use as they will become blank.

  4. ITS-BIA will deprecate the fields / views.  Any reports the have not transitioned by this point will break.

We'll be using this strategy on the following items that require name changes. 

In the March release we will set the following fields to null:

  • Class Section Enrollment Count - will be replaced by Enrolled At End of Term Count and Enrolled At Census Date Count 
  • Class Section Enrollment Flag - will be replaced by Enrolled At End of Term Flag and Enrolled At Census Date Flag
  • Term End Date - will be replaced by General Campus Term Instruction End Date
  • Term Start Date - will be replaced by General Campus Term Instruction Start Date

In the March release we remove the following fields:

  • Permanent Address Country Code - will be replaced by Permanent Address Country Code Current

  • Permanent Address Country Name - will be replaced by Permanent Address Country Name Current

  • Permanent Address State - will be replaced by Permanent Address Country State Current

  • Permanent Address Zip - will be replaced by Permanent Address Country Zip Current
