TX - Disable Transcript Averaging for Certain Courses
Add function that allows user to specify at the course-level whether course should be included in transcript averaging. For example, if a student completes a credit recovery course, that course should not average with the original course. Another possible solution would be to average based on course number rather than PEIMS ID.

No--this is not supported. We are asking for a course-level setting that excludes a course from ever being considered for transcript averaging. Transcript averaging had to be disabled altogether because credit recovery courses were averaging with original courses. This is not acceptable practice as the business rules granted credit in both the credit recovery record and the original failed record. A student who failed college English IV A and then compelted credit recovery English recieved a total of 1.50 credits when he should have recieved ONLY the credit in the credit recovery course. The link has been manually broken (as above) but caused inaccurate transcript records.
