Setting to Automatically Bind MMPs

3 votes

It would be a great help to have a setting in the Optimizer that would automatically bind MMPs that were not already preassigned.

We build our final exam times as a second meeting line (because that allows the exam date/time and room assignment to display accurately both in 25Live and on student schedules) and so almost all our classes have MMPs that we currently have to manually bind one at a time to ensure the final is assigned the same classroom as the regular meeting. After almost a decade of doing this, it's getting pretty old :)

Note that uploading bound section groups in LYNX is currently possible and may minimize the amount of time it takes to bind meetings to one another. More information can be found here: https://knowledge25.collegenet.com/display/25HELP/Adding+and+Uploading+Bound+Section+Groups

We would love this, and it would save us so much time! I think this feature could be helpful to schools if it were built with some options, such as being able to filter which types of meetings could be bound, using things like instructional method , schedule type, or even the meeting type (top choice for me), or even based on date ranges (in Banner, these fields are: SSBSECT_INSM_CODE, SSBSECT_SCHD_CODE, SSRMEET_MTYP_CODE, SSRMEET_START_DATE, SSRMEET_END_DATE) .
