A control table in FMPro (or edit via web directly?) with who can see what via the Grades web application:
| Faculty | Grad TAs | Students |
|---|---|---|---|
Course1 |

|
Course2 |
|
|
|
Course3 |

Decide on date to turn on web application for student use
...
- Ensure that all "single account set up for a whole course for use by many TAs" is cleaned up. (Legacy capability which is no longer needed. And confuses things now.)
- Dani and PatH
- Ensure works from systems at: TA room, DanL, and Sam's.

Previous:
Done: Establish procedure for PatH to update web-hosted data. "Push the button".
As of 10/17/16, this was done several years ago. (As of 8/16/13, function doesn't exist for PatH.)
- Requires ODBC connection. Not possible at FMPro server; must be set up at FMPro client's computer.
- Do for PatH's computer. As backup, do on Sam's computer.
- Current plan: For each computer, set ODBC up as system's Admin (vs. user) so ODBC accessible/ configured for any computer account.
Done: Fulfilled Becky's needs of Grades DB
...
- Change all TA access to be by NetID (and FMPro p/w), instead of their name.
- This keeps the access process the same as it was, but:
- Enables the correct access restrictions via the web application.
- Facilitates transition to trueNetID-based access, as a future project.

Establish semester-start procedures and processes. Includes:
...
- PatH pulls the final data from the backups.
- NOTE: If an edit is done, must wait until that edit shows up in a backup (~ half a work day) and then that backup becomes the "final data" for that course.
- PatH zeroed out each of the ChemGrades DBs before the start of their next use.
- PatH does this within FMPro, when she needs it done (varies by course).
- Cut off TA's access to FMPro.
- PatH does this within FMPro, when she needs it done (varies by course?).
- Some courses must not show the grade of the final exam, per faculty member's requirement.
- In those cases, PatH will simply not "push" her final data to the web (varies by course).
- For these courses, grade changes for a student done after the last push (right before final exam grades entered into FMPro, ideally) will thus not show up on the web.
- These are edge/ rare cases and PatH will inform the student of this fact.

- What is done now for the Waiting List web application? Do same thing?
- Would it not be PatH's office? If so, how communicate on the page?
