Parameter Description
Filter Courses This is a flag value that controls whether the filtering runs. If selected, each individual filter is evaluated on whether or not it runs by its property. If it is not enabled, none of the course filters run.
Credit Calculation This is a flag value that controls whether the Credit Calculation filter runs. If selected, the Earned column is inspected to ensure it falls within a certain document dictated statistical tolerance; marking the values that fall outside this range as invalid. If there is no Description or Grade in the row, the row is removed. If it is not enabled, the filter does not run.
Note: This filter only runs if over half the rows have either credits or grades.
Course Number Pattern This is a flag value that controls whether the Course Number Pattern filter runs. If selected, the course number pattern is evaluated (if it has not been previously validated by an external course database lookup) against the other course numbers; invalidating the rows where it fails to match. If it is not enabled, the filter does not run.
Description With Header This is a flag value that controls whether the Course Number Pattern filter runs. If selected, the Description column is inspected for similarities to information found in the document header; filtering out the rows where it matches. It only invalidates the cell if grades or credits exist. If it is not enabled, the filter does not run.
Scale Keyword This is a flag value that controls whether the Scale Keyword filter runs. If selected, all rows that occur after the identified grading scale are filtered. If the row is passes, any cell that occur after the identified grading scale are invalidated. If it is not enabled, the filter does not run.
Header And Footer Keyword This is a flag value that controls whether the Header and Footer keyword filter runs. If selected, the Description column is inspected for keywords and patterns that are typically found in the header and footer of a grade section; filtering out the rows where it matches. It only invalidates the cell if grades or credits exist. If it is not enabled, the filter does not run.
Blank Row This is a flag value that controls whether the Blank Row filter runs. If selected, any row that is missing the course number, description, grades, and credits is filtered. If it is not enabled, the filter does not run.
Use Grade Level Inference This is a flag to denote whether the Grade Level is inferred from the Course Descriptions if it cannot be obtained any other way.
