Field Heading Lists

Control what information appears in the table on various ACEweb pages with the Field heading list entries.

Field Heading lists take the form "field:columnheading" with each pair separated by a semi-colon [;]. E.g. the following is an example of a ScheduleFields INI setting that controls course listings:

course_name:Title;begins:Begins;ends:Ends;cocrsetm:Meets;fullfee:Fee

 

Field - name of the field you are including in the list. Some field names are actual Student Manager field names, others are program defined.  Field names must match ACEweb’s internal designators (as specified in the documentation on each INI setting).

Colon [:] - the required separator between the Field and Column Heading (e.g. code:Course Code).

Column Heading - title of the column which holds the field. The headers are entirely up to the user and will translate to the tables literally (including case and embedded spaces).  A recent enhancement allows specifying column widths by adding a pipe character followed by the width as a percentage of the total (e.g. Field1:Head 1|25;Field2:Head 2:50;Field3:Head 3|25).

In some cases, expressions can be used in the field name area to enhance the column contents (e.g. IIF(rgwaitlist,[Yes],[ ]):Waitlist?).

Semicolon [;] - multiple Field:Column Headings entries are separated by semi-colons (e.g. Course_Name:Title;begins:Begins).

Default Field Heading List

All field heading lists settings have a default field list value that is used if nothing is specified in the appropriate INI setting.

INI Settings

You can set the field heading lists for the following INI settings:  Asyncfields, InstructorFields, Regconfirmfields, Regstatusfields, Rosterfields, Schedulefields, TranscriptFields, WorkshopFields.
