PASS - Running Batch Academic Advisement Reports or AARs (Staff)

The following are instructions to run batch AARs in PASS. Users with Administrative Access may run batch AARs, i.e. generally these users also have access to Student Services Center (Student).

NOTE : If you are planning to run multiple batches in a single day, contact the Registrar's Office to set up your own set of Report Identifiers. (See #6c below)

1. Log into PASS.
2. Click on the Student Success Workcenter  Tile.
   
3. On the left, click on Batch Advisement Report to expand that menu.
4. Click on Generate Report Requests . First you will need to create a Run Control. A Run Control can be named anything that is meaningful to you. It allows you to save your settings on this page for future use. The same Run Control name is going to be used throughout this process.
   1. To create a new run control, click on the Add a New Value tab. After entering a Run Control name, click Add.
   2. If you already have run batch AARs before, search for your Run Control ID in the Find an Existing Value tab and select it to open the page.

   2. Report Type - SSAR
   3. Report Identifier - BATCH*

      *A Report Identifier this is a way for PASS to differentiate from one batch from another on the same report date. If you are running lots of batches in one day, it's best to have your own set of Report Identifiers. Contact the Registrar's office for more information. If you are only running one set on a single day, select BATCH.

   4. Report Date - Current Date
   5. As of Date - 01/01/3000, to get the most up-to-date data. Note: This will not work for a discontinued student. See  PASS CX - Generating an Academic Advisement Report (AAR) for a Discontinued Student (Admin)
