Process mass enrollment requests. |
Using group enrollment for more than 20 or 30 learners can be cumbersome. Mass enrollment provides an efficient method of handling large volume enrollments. You can 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.
The system triggers the mass enrollment option during a group enrollment when an administrator attempts to enroll or register more learners than the number specified in the Group Enroll Maximum field on the Install Defaults - Enrollment page. In this case, the system prompts the administrator to submit a mass enrollment request or to return to the Enroll Learners - Find Learners page to narrow the search results.
Note: (FRA) When you enter a mass enrollment request, you cannot associate a learning classification with the enrollment records or specify the use of DIF hours for the enrollments. You can add this information to the enrollment records later through the Administer Class Roster component.
To process a mass enrollment, the administrator, must:
Select to schedule a mass enrollment request when prompted during group enrollment.
Select mass enrollment overrides and notification options.
Review and update any payment details that apply to the mass enrollment request.
Unlike group enrollment, the only valid payment method for mass enrollment is chargeback. Therefore, if the requester is an external learner, you must enable chargeback as a payment method on the Payment Information page for the requester's organization. By default, the system uses the requester's department, but there is an option to charge back each individual learner's department.
Submit the mass enrollment request.
Process the mass enrollment request to enroll or register the learners in the class or program.
Review the results to determine success or failure of individual enrollments.
Before using the mass enrollment process, be sure that the appropriate value has been set for the commit frequency.
Use the Group Enrollment - Warning page (LM_ENRL_WARNING) to schedule a mass enrollment request.

Override Approval |
Select to override manager and administrator approvals for all learners. If the class or program requires approval and you do not select this option, the system sets the enrollment or registration status for all learners to pending approval provided that the learners meet the other conditions for successful enrollment or registration. This option does not override payment approvals that the system requires when a training unit pool or purchase order has an owner assigned. |
Override Prerequisite |
Select to override required and enforced prerequisites for all learners. |
Notify Learner |
Select to send an email notification to learners informing them of their enrollment or registration statuses. When you select this check box, all learners receive a notification email regardless of whether their enrollments or registrations were successful. |
Notify Requester |
Select to send an email notification to the requester upon completion of the process. The notification includes how many learners are successfully and unsuccessfully enrolled or registered. The system generates an email that gets queued to be sent to the requester. The email provides the requester with the total number of successful and unsuccessful enrollments or registrations. |
