6. Select the IPEDS Exclusion check box to exclude the course recorded with the specified completion code from the IPEDS survey.

IPEDS: The Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System is a system of surveys that gathers information from every post-secondary institution participating in federal student financial aid programs. This includes colleges, universities, technical schools and vocational institutions

7. Select the COE Exclusion check box to ensure the COE report finds students with this drop code on their schedules (schedule.custom_86); once located, the student is removed from COE calculations outright.

8. Select the Teacher check box to ensure the course completion code displays on the teachers' Student Reauthorization screen and on the students' schedules.

9. Select the Min Year and Max Year from the corresponding pull-downs to determine the active school years for the selected code. The Min Year pull-down defaults to the current year while the Max Year defaults to null. You can set a Min Year and leave the Max Year null, so the code remains active until a Max Year is selected.

10. When all data has been entered/selected, click Save.
