Campuses can generate a dynamic Course Distribution Report for a specific institution. This
report lists each course on the TIS data base offered at
the selected institution.
Options include selecting:
- all courses or only freshman/sophomore level courses, current courses (without ending dates) or both current
and historical versions of courses,
- flat file or report output.
(Note: The Course Distribution Reports are only available
to users who are logged into the TIS Maintenance System.) The
reports can be exported in one of the following formats:
- CSV (for loading into Excel)
- Excel
- XML
- PDF (for direct printing)
Within the Static Reports area, Course Distribution Reports are available in PDF format that include (1) all courses (both current
and historical versions) from all institutions and (2) all freshman/sophomore level courses (both current
and historical versions) from all institutions.
H. Reports Used to Check TIS Courses:
These reports are run by TIS staff, typically following batch course submission processing to identify problems that may have been caused by course or other table updates.
1. Course Statistics Report
This report provides a summary of the data associated with a course submission file for a given campus. It lists the dates the file was received and used to update, along with the total number of records submitted, updates done, and records rejected as errors.
2. Match CAC to Course Report
This report lists courses on the TIS data base where the curricular area code (CAC) on the course record is not valid for the associated department/curricular area in the TIS Department/Curricular Area Table.
3. Duplicate Active Course Report
This report lists courses on the TIS data base where the data may be inconsistent or erroneous. This includes courses for which there are multiple records for the same or overlapping effective dates, courses for which there are multiple records with an active or inactive status, and courses where the previous course information is erroneous.
I. Reports Used to Check TIS Equivalencies:
These reports are run by TIS staff, typically following batch equivalency submission processing to identify problems that may have been caused by equivalency or other table updates.
1. Equivalency Statistics Report
This report provides a summary of the data associated with the equivalencies in an equivalency submission file for a given campus. It lists the dates the file was received and used to update, along with the total number of records submitted, updates done, and records rejected as errors.
2. Footnote Statistics Report
This report provides a summary of the data associated with the footnote text records in an equivalency submission file for a given campus. It lists the dates the file was received and used to update, along with the total number of records submitted, updates done, and records rejected as errors.
3. Match Course to Equivalency Report
This report lists equivalencies on the TIS data base where there is no match in the TIS course file for either the associated From Course or To Course.
4. Duplicate Equivalency Report
This report lists equivalencies where multiple records are on the TIS data base for the same From Course and the same or overlapping effective dates. In some cases, these records represent “group” equivalencies where one course transfers as a combination of courses. In such situations, it is recommended that a footnote be assigned to each equivalency to explain the group situation. In other cases, the one of the records may have submitted with a missing end date.
J. 50% Report:
This report lists the number of equivalencies that a given To Institution has provided to TIS. For each From Institution, the number of active courses is compared to the number of equivalencies provided for these courses. For UW institutions, a total of freshman/sophomore level courses is also reported with the percent of these equivalencies provided.
