Requested Features

Current Cycle

Release 2024.1.1 [December 2024]

Features to Complete

Add the "Sponsered Program" filter to the enrollment-only report in PBI
Replace the 'Target Defined' with 'Sponsored Program' in the 'Enrollment and Tuition' and ''Enrollment Only' pages.
Trends
- Include selector for the targets to use for the trend analysis instead of defaulting to the latest available for the term
  - This can get complicated when the targets are not aligned across the years (e.g., the latest for 2022 was Q1, but for 2023 it was Q2)
- BUG: Spring forecast charts are off, likely caused by the offset date method to keep numbers from spanning over two years.
- Include headcount, average credits, and tuition as alternate data points
- Filtering
  - Allow switching view between daily, weekly and monthly
Data Extracts
- Include other tables in the extract page
  - UI to switch between data to be extracted
  - Engage EBIS to see if we can enable PBI Automate to save files to Google Drive

Features to Consider

Include a new report page that shows the progression of tuition over time for all programs
- a2_tuition_over_time procedure to aggregate all tuition from U_46
- Based on new U_46_dates view that includes the transaction date for all tuition transactions
- Allow filtering on program and degree code
Add a visualization that can show the change of tuition over time for those cases where people are watching the numbers daily for any sign of movement
- Requires a new procedure to pull tuition totals as of a particular date, probably as a weekly snapshot as a separate table
Add in the calculated revenue to the enrollment only view to allow it to show the projected revenue based on the enrollments

Use the methodology that Andy currently uses to calculate for the daily email

Features Ready for Release

SQL Only: added REGI code exclusions for Summer 24

Trends
