Run the Cognos report TU Groups > Registrar > Registrar Reports > [Report References] > time_ticket_config
This report has three prompts:
Current Registered Term – the current term
Student level – UG or GR (PR and M are rolled into GR automatically)
Minimum Group Size – educated guess
This part is a bit of a guessing game/trial and error. For instance, if there are two days of GR registration with 9 roll in times per day (hourly, 8:00 am – 4:00 pm), then the report needs to be rerun adjusting the minimum group size until the report returns 18 distinct roll in times.
Continue rerunning the report, adjusting the minimum group size, until you have the desired number of roll in groups.
The number of groups can be calculated by multiplying the number of days allocated to registration by the number of roll in times per day (9).
Be sure to take zero (0) credit students into account. The report only displays students with more than 1 earned credit.
Sometimes groupings can be manually updated to achieve the desired number of roll in times.
This process needs to be completed for 2 groups – GR and UG students.
Once the roll in times have been determined, create a merged roll-in document (see https://tulane.box.com/s/2mon1t07q9oiq554x8wsdmin21zluuw5) and indicate when each UG class will be rolling in.
Include BSM-MAC roll in times generated when the PIN job was run (Registration PIN Assignments, step 2)
This information will also be used to inform other offices about when groups/classes will begin rolling in.

NOTE: Beginning in 202130
AP and IB credits no longer count toward a student’s earned credits for the purpose of time-ticketing. This was enacted in an effort to be more equitable for students whose high schools did not offer these programs.
