The Mass Update Scheduling tool allows users to assign Scheduling Priorities and Location Restrictions to students en masse. Scheduling Priorities are assigned to students, and determine the order in which students’ course requests are sent to the eSD Sectioner. Location Restrictions are assigned to both students and course sections, allowing users to tie specific sections of courses to groups of students, in effect creating teams.
