Enrollment Status Editor

Three options are available for the Enrollment Status editor. The first is a read only editor that pulls information from the student's Enrollment tab. The second pulls information from the student's Enrollment tab and certain fields can be modified. The third pulls information from the student's Enrollment tab, certain fields can be modified, and when the plan is Locked, this data is then pushed back to the student's Enrollment tab and overrides existing data.

It is recommended that a district selects one of these editors to use and hide the unused editors to avoid confusion.
