Unmerging a crosslisted course #7

Closed mackensen closed 6 years ago

mackensen commented 9 years ago

We have a scenario where two courses were crosslisted and became a merged course, but this crosslisted was later undone by the registrar. The merged course remains, and there are no enrollments in the original courses. I can see the entries in mdl_enrol_lmb_crosslists; would changing the status to 0 and re-running the enrollments fix the issue?

We worked around this by identifying the outdated rows in mdl_enrol_lmb_crosslists and deleting them, which allowed the enrollments to process on the now-independent courses.

For future reference, the "proper" way to do it would be to inject XML that looks like this to remove the members from the crosslist:

<membership>
    <sourcedid>
        <source>Oakland University SCT Banner</source>
        <id>XLSAA201510</id>
    </sourcedid>
    <member>
        <sourcedid>
            <source>Oakland University SCT Banner</source>
            <id>14482.201510</id>
        </sourcedid>
        <idtype>2</idtype>
        <role roletype = "02">
            <status>0</status>
        </role>
    </member>
    <member>
            <sourcedid>
                <source>Oakland University SCT Banner</source>
                <id>14483.201510</id>
            </sourcedid>
            <idtype>2</idtype>
            <role roletype = "02">
                <status>0</status>
            </role>
        </member>
</membership>

@merrill-oakland just to ensure I understand, this would be a one-time injection of XML so that LMB could handle things correctly? If we're doing folder processing, we'd add something like fixup.xml containing the above?

ericmerrill commented 6 years ago

Correct.

I'm planning on fixing this problem in the LMB/ILP rewrite currently in progress over at https://github.com/merrill-oakland/lmbnxt.

Thanks!
