Group enrollment enables an administrator to enroll or register multiple learners into a class or program in one operation, as opposed to enrolling or registering one learner at a time and repeating the process for every learner. During group enrollment, the term enrollment is applicable to both classes and programs. It is implied that learners are registered for programs and enrolled in classes. For sake of simplicity, the group enrollment pages use the term enroll.
Note: If you select the Allow Enrollment in Multiple Learning Objects check box on the Install Defaults – General Page, administrators can enroll or register multiple learners into multiple classes, programs, or both.
To process a group enrollment, the administrator must:
Identify and select the requester who is submitting or authorizing the group enrollment.
This is the person who is considered responsible for the payment of any fees.
Note: This step is not applicable if the Default Requester option is selected for the administrator's learning environment. The system assumes that the administrator is the requester and hides the Enroll Learners - Find Requester page.
Search for and select the class or program for which enrollment is requested.
You can select from the classes or programs that are associated with a learner group to which the requester belongs.
Note: If Allow Enrollment in Multiple Learning Objects is enabled, you can select multiple classes or programs during this step.
Search for learners based on criteria that the requester provides.
Select the final group of learners that the requester requires.
(FRA) Select a learning classification and specify whether to use DIF hours for the enrollment.
Review and update any payment details that apply to the group enrollment request.
During group enrollment the system requires the administrator to select a payment method regardless of whether the class or program has a price. The payment methods that are available depend on whether the requester is an internal or external learner. Valid payment methods for internal requesters include chargebacks. Valid payment methods for external requesters include chargebacks, cash, checks, credit cards, training units, and purchase orders, depending on the setup of the customer organization to which the requester belongs.
Submit the group enrollment request.
Review the results to determine success or failure of individual enrollments.
Note: The system automatically enrolls learners in the class or program, provided that they meet the other requirements for enrollment, if one of the following is true: the current user logged in or the requester is the learner's manager and the class or program requires manager approval, or the user logged in or the requester is the owner of the training unit pool or purchase order used to pay for the training and the class or program requires payment approval.
Resubmit specific learners' enrollments to override any alerts.
The number that you specify in the Group Enroll Maximum field on the Install Defaults - Enrollment page limits the number of learners that administrators can enroll through group enrollment. When an administrator attempts to enroll more learners than you specify in the Group Enroll Maximum field, the system prompts the administrator to switch to mass enrollment.
Note: Depending on your needs, using group enrollment for more than 20 or 30 learners can become time consuming and cumbersome. In such cases, you can use mass enrollment. Mass enrollment enables you to submit one request for a large number of learners, and you do not have to wait for the request to complete. You can check the results later.
Use the Enroll Learners - Find Requester page (LM_CALL_CENTER_REQ) to search for the individual who is making the enrollment request.

See Add link to Transaction table information.
Fees Information
Use this group box to modify the class or program fees and drop charges for each learner. Fees and drop charges for classes appear by default from the Class Details page. Fees and drop charges for programs appear by default from the Maintain Programs - Details pages.
The system adjusts class and program currency prices and drop charges accordingly if there is a discount percentage set up for the department or customer organization to which the requester belongs. For example, if the class price is 500.00 USD, and the customer organization to which the requester belongs receives a 50 percent discount, the class price that the system displays is 250.00 USD. The system does not apply discounts to enrollment charges or drop charges if you pay using training units. Define discounts for departments on the Review Departments page. Define discounts for customer organizations on the Payment Information page.
The price for a program is separate from the price for classes within that program. A learner must pay to register for a program, then enroll in and pay for individual classes for that program. A learner does not have to pay for classes within a program that are waived or that he or she has received historical credit for.

Description |
|---|---|
Price Per Seat |

Select Payment Method
Use this group box to select a payment method. The system only displays this group box if the requester is an external learner. The payment methods that you can select depend on the setup of the customer organization to which the requester belongs. Define payment methods for a customer organization on the Payment Information page. You can only select one payment method for all learners. The system does not allow partial payment by two different payment method types. You cannot change the payment method after the enrollment or registration is complete.
Field or Control |
Description |
|---|---|
Payment Method |
Select a payment method. Values are: Cash: Select to pay with cash for the class or program fee. The system handles cash transactions for enrollments or registrations the same way as check transactions, except that you are not prompted to enter any additional information. ChargeBack: Select to pay with a chargeback. The Enter Charge Back Information group box appears. Check: Select to pay with a check. The Enter Check Information group box appears. Credit Card: Select to pay with a credit card. The Enter Credit Card Information group box appears. Purchase Order: Select to pay with a purchase order. The Purchase Order group box appears. Training Units: Select to pay with training units. The Training Units group box appears. |
Enter Charge Back Information
Use this group box to enter charge back account information. The system displays this group box by default if the requester is an internal learner. If the requester is an external learner, it appears when you select Charge Back in the Payment Method field.
The ChartFields that the system displays depend on which ChartFields you select for use on the Chartfield Configuration page. If the requester is an internal learner, the ChartField values appear by default from the general ledger business unit that is mapped to the PeopleSoft HCM business unit to which the requester belongs. The requester's department is also included in the Department field. If the requester is an external learner, the ChartField values appear by default from the Profile Information page for the customer organization to which the requester belongs. You can modify the default ChartField values. The ChartField values that you can select for each ChartField are any values with an active status on the Chartfield Values page. The enrollment or registration records the payment method, ChartField values, and the transaction amount in the Transaction table.

Split |
Click to split the class or program charge between more than one account. The number values that you enter in the Split % (split percentage) fields must total 100. |
Enter Check Information
For payments made by check, you must enter the check number, check issue date, bank, and routing number. The check expiration date is optional. The enrollment or registration status is set to pending payment for all learners until the check payment is received. The system does not enroll, waitlist (classes only), or register learners until the check payment is received. After payment is confirmed, administrators must manually update the learner's enrollment or registration status through the Administer Class Roster or Administer Program Rosters component. The enrollment or registration records the payment method, check information, revenue ChartFields, and the transaction amount in the Transaction table.
Enter Credit Card Information
Use this group box to enter credit card information. You can set up the credit card interface for CyberSource integration or manual processing on the Payment Methods page.
With CyberSource integration, you must enter a first and last name, credit card type, credit card number, expiration month and year, email address, and mailing address. When you click the Submit Enrollment button, the system attempts to connect to the CyberSource system to process the credit card. Each enrollment or registration is a separate credit card transaction. If you register five learners in a program, there are five credit card transactions. If the authorization succeeds and the credit card is successfully processed, the enrollment is successful; otherwise it fails. The credit card transaction does not occur if the system adds the learner to the class's waitlist. A learner is successfully enrolled or registered in the class or program if the credit card authorization goes through, even if the class or program requires manager or administrator approval.
With manual processing, there is no authorization of credit card information. The system ignores manager and administrator approvals. The system successfully enrolls or registers all learners, provided that they meet the other requirements of enrollment or registration. You must enter a first and last name, credit card number, and expiration month and year.
For CyberSource integration the enrollment or registration records the authorization number, enrollment confirmation number, the encrypted credit card number, revenue ChartFields, and the transaction amount in the Transaction table. For manual processing, the enrollment or registration records the enrollment confirmation number, and the encrypted credit card number in the Transaction table.
Note: For security reasons, only the last four digits of credit card numbers are shown on all other system pages.
Purchase Order
For payments made by purchase order, enter the purchase order number. The enrollment or registration records the purchase order number, the associated ChartField, currency, revenue ChartFields, and the transaction amount in the Transaction table.
The system deducts funds from the purchase order in cases where a learner's status is enrolled, registered, or pending approval. Funds are not deducted if the learner is waitlisted. If the learner has a pending approval status and upon approval is waitlisted, the system replenishes the funds into the purchase order. Essentially the system deducts funds from the purchase order for any status other than waitlisted.
If a manager, administrator, or purchase order owner denies approval for an enrollment request with pending approval status, the system reverses the purchase order deduction amount. The owner of the purchase order must approve the request on the approvals page. Managers must approve the request on the Maintain Approvals page. Administrators can approve requests on an approvals page or by using the Administer Class Roster or Administer Program Rosters components.
Field or Control |
Description |
|---|---|
PO Number |
Enter a purchase order number. The purchase orders that you can enter are any purchase orders that are assigned to the requester. Assign purchase orders to a learner on the External Learners - Profile Info page. For example, a customer organization might have three purchase orders; PO1001, PO1002, and PO1003. However, if you only assign purchase orders PO1001 and PO1002 to the requester, then you cannot use PO1003 to pay for the enrollment. The purchase order number that you enter must have sufficient funds, the currency of the purchase order must match the currency of the class or program, and the purchase order expiration date must not be met; otherwise, the enrollment or registration is unsuccessful. |
Training Units
Use this group box to enter training unit pool information. The enrollment records the training unit pool ID, the number of training units that is deducted, the total price calculated based on the purchase price of the training units and currency, the associated ChartField, currency, revenue ChartFields, and amount in the Transaction table.
The conditions for deducting funds from a training unit pool and approving the use of training units are similar to the conditions described for purchase orders.
