Select this check box to indicate that the impact provides a service (as opposed to denying or restricting one).

System Function

Select this check box to identify the service impact as one called by PeopleSoft program logic. For example, you must define the CENR service impact and select this check box for it, for each institution in your system because it is used by enrollment process logic.

Service Indicator Details

Default Reason

Displays the default reason associated with the service indicator.

Note. The system cannot display the default reason until the reason is defined and associated with the service indicator on the Service Indicator Reasons page.

Positive Service Indicator

Select this check box to indicate that the service indicator identifies a privilege or service to be provided.

For example, if you define a positive service indicator of Conference Guest and associate the service impact of Front of Line, then any person assigned the Conference Guest service indicator should receive front-of-line service at your institution.

Set No Default

Select this check box to prevent the system from displaying default values in the Service Indicator Reason Code and Department fields on the Service Indicators page.

Deceased Indicator

Display Deceased Label

Select this check box to display the word DECEASED at the top of pages about individuals to whom the indicator is assigned in the future.

Warning! Select the Display Deceased Label check box only when creating a death service indicator. Selecting this for any other service indicator could cause the system to apply the deceased label to individuals who are not deceased. If this happens, substantial manual effort might be required to remove the deceased designation from each individual's record.

Service Indicator Impact

Service Impact

Enter the service that is either restricted or provided by this service indicator.

Term Category

Select the single term category for which the service impact is valid.

If you do not specify a term category, the service impact becomes valid for all terms.

Values for this field are delivered with your system as translate values. You can modify these translate values.

Description

Enter comments to further describe or identify the service impact as it relates to this service indicator.

When selected, indicates that the service indicator identifies a privilege or service to be provided (as opposed to denied or restricted).

Reason Code

Enter a code for the service indicator reason that you are creating.

Set As Default

Select this check box to associate this reason with the service indicator. You can select only one default reason for each service indicator.

When you save the page, the system displays this reason beside the Default Reason field label on the Service Indicators Codes page. When you assign the service indicator on the Service Indicator Data 1 page, the system displays this as the default reason (unless the Set No Default check box next to the Default Reason field on the Service Indicators Codes page is selected, in which case, no default reason appears).

Multiples

Select this check box to permit the assignment of multiples of this service indicator to the same student.

For example, if a student has many overdue library fines, selecting this option allows the service indicator to be entered for each fine.

Department

Enter the department at your institution, from the Department Table page, that is responsible for this service indicator.

Reference

Select the type of entity (Department, Department and Instructor, or Department Bill # and Instructions) that identified the need for this service indicator.

Values for this field are delivered with your system as translate values. You can modify these translate values.

Position Number

Enter the ID of the person or office that identified the need for this service impact.

Instructions

Enter comments or instructions to further describe or define this service indicator reason, or to identify what an individual must do to qualify for the removal of a negative service indicator.
