Time ticketing involves assigning a registration roll-in time for students based on their earned credits. Graduate-level students roll in on the first and second days of priority registration. Undergraduate students begin on the third day. Law School generally rolls in two weeks after everyone else. Consortium students are allowed to register after all GR and UG student roll-in times have passed. All non-special students will have a time ticket, but only special populations of students will have registration PINs. Time ticketing is managed on the SFARGTC Banner form. Set up time tickets using the SFRCTRL table dump from the previous term (see Request and Configure Table Dumps - SFRRSTS, SFRRFCR, SFRCTRL). The goal is to try to divide the number of students registering as evenly as possible over the allotted roll-in times based on students' earned credit ranges. |

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.
Be sure to take zero (0) credit students into account. The report only displays students with more than 1 earned credit.
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).

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.
