Getting Started
u.select 4.1 uses the term Planning Guide Request Code to indicate the type of Degree Audit system and therefore the format of the eventual xml request document. To assist
troubleshooting, the following table shows the mapping between u.select 4.1 options and the actual QUEUE_REQ_STAT value which is stored in the JOB_QUEUE_LIST.STATUS:
| u.select 4.1 | QUEUE_REQ_STAT |
|---|---|
| Native DARwin XML interface version 4.1 | Z |
| EDAG xml request for Xml versions h,i | 4 |
| EDAG xml request PESC version g | C |
| EDAG xml request PESC version f | B |
| EDAG xml request pre-PESC version 0 | A |
External Degree Audit Configuration
A u.select server administrator and school administrator both have the necessary authorization level to properly configure a school as an external degree audit system. You must edit the school settings then make sure the external audit URL is set.
School Settings
Navigate to: Administration->Manage School Settings
To allow users to create Planning Guides, click Yes in the Allow Creation of Planning Guides field.
Set the correct Planning Guide Request Code based on the above mappings.
| Schools using the DARwin Xml interface Schools using the DARwin Xml interface provided by the external CEG 4.1, need to choose: Native DARwin XML interface version 4.1 Schools using the DARwin Xml interface provided by the Receive.war, need to choose: EDAG xml request for Xml versions h,i |
Click the Update button to save the changes.
External Audit URL
Navigate to: Administration->Manage URLs
In the External URL section, add:
External Audit URL
After entering the URL, be sure to click the Update button to save the URL.
DARwin Xml Interface
For schools using the DARwin Xml Interface, you must add another entry in the DARwin daemon.cfg.
You must make sure the new entry has the same server_name as the value of the Server Name field on the School settings page. The following shows an example entry with values for the Miami dars1x beta server.
[daemon-cas4]
### Database Connection Parameters
jdbc_driver = com.jnetdirect.jsql.JSQLDriver

db_multi_wc = %
db_single_wc = _
### Daemon Environment Parameters
darsql_dir = D:\DARS\DARNT354\DARNT354_CASdars1-edag\DARwin\bin
working_dir = D:\DARS\DARNT354\DARNT354_CASdars1-edag\DARwin\bin
data_dir = D:\DARS\DARNT354\DARNT354_CASdars1-edag\DARwin\bin\data_dars1_cas4
