Is there a setting to include courses in the Report for Courses that do not have SIS IDs. I am thinking that most or all of these courses were manually created and an SIS ID was not required, just a Course Code and Name. *I was trying to prove that having several admins that could name courses, as they chose, would lead to a confusing list of names that might be difficult to search. It was then that I realized the Reports, when listing Courses, was not including those that did not have an SIS ID.
If you run the Provisioning report and select Courses, you should get all courses regardless of whether they have an SIS ID.
I do not understand the difference between "Provisioning" and "SIS Imports" Reports regarding the list of courses. Shouldn't choosing either and running it on "Courses" show the same number of courses?
I meant "SIS Exports" but I think I understand now. "SIS Exports" will only show those items created by "SIS Imports" while "Provisioning" will show ALL items.
