Activities and Awards – Add 'More Info' Option and Display Inactive Fixed Code Descriptions in Read Mode
Currently, the Activities and Awards page does not have a 'More Info' option to view a record's full details in read mode — users must open Edit mode to see all data elements. Additionally, when a field contains a descriptor code that has been marked Inactive or 'No Longer In Use' in Fixed Codes (such as ACT.PCR Code 03 – IBC Failed, which was removed from TWEDS for the 2025–26 school year), the description no longer displays — only the raw code value is shown.
We are requesting two related improvements:
1. Add a 'More Info' option to Activities and Awards records — consistent with the functionality already available on Transcript and Special Program records — so users can view all data elements of a record in read mode without needing to enter Edit mode.
2. Display inactive Fixed Code descriptions in read mode — when a field in read mode contains a descriptor code tagged as Inactive or No Longer In Use in Fixed Codes, the system should continue to display both the code and its description (e.g., "03 – IBC Failed") per the Aeries standard, so that the meaning of historical records is preserved and visible.

- Other > Activities and Awards: A More Info option has been added to records on the Activities and Awards page, allowing users to view additional data elements in read mode without entering Edit mode. Fields containing descriptor codes marked as Inactive or No Longer In Use in Fixed Codes now display both the code and its description in read mode.
