In the Xitracs system, faculty credentials are linked to course sections. This lets you generate reports which show the relevant qualification(s) for a course being taught in a specific semester.

This is important when there is an external reporting requirement to show the specific qualifications held by an individual faculty member at the time a course was being taught.

Mapping of course credentials to specific sections may be done manually via the courses tab for each faculty member or, more typically, via data import. (See the separate publication Xitracs Data Import Guide).

 

For those institutions which do not have a need to track specific credentials for each course section, the Automap function will automatically map a faculty member's credentials to the course sections being taught in a selected semester.

This eliminates the need to import the course credential mapping data. Once an initial semester has been updated using Automap, subsequent semesters can then be updated using the Synchronize function.

To Initiate Automap

1.Select the Semester in which course sections will be updated.

2.Select the Department(s) for which course sections will be updated.

3.Select the Qualification types to map and whether each type should be included as a main or additional qualification.

 Note: Qualifications that are flagged as Additional are shown separately in certain roster reports (e.g. SACS)

4.Click Submit

5.After automapping, a report will be generated.
