I suggest you ...

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".
(thinking…)

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

If a similar idea already exists, you can support and comment on it.

If it doesn't exist, you can post your idea so others can support it.

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

  1. Provide SLN availability within Term Resource

    We do a few things based on SLN, and if you query section info too soon the SLN's are 0000.

    What I'm doing now is making sure I don't query courses based on the relevant terms "registrationservicesstart" via the Term resource, which is more than a month after SNL availability noted here http://depts.washington.edu/registra/staffFaculty/calendars/tscal1011.php. This solution is a little hacky and I would love something more integrated.

    We will talk to the data owners to figure out if/when this info is available.

  2. modifications to Section resource

    The Groups Web Service provisioner could source its data from SWS if:
    o The section search resource accepted a timestamp, and returned only those sections which had been modified since that timestamp
    o The section resource returned a system timestamp
    o The registration resource optionally returned StudentNbr or UWNetId instead of RegId

  3. student financial need info

    Any time a student applies for a scholarship or fellowship, their financial need must be determined. I'd like to see column uwneed in table sfevaluation, database UWSDB, exposed to web services.

  4. Add financial transaction data to FWS

    This would save us from having to manually download expenditure transactions from MyFinancial.Desktop.

    Perhaps this effort could also expose other MyFD functions under web services, such as reconciliation.

  5. Make a way to see all courses that meet at a particular day and time.

    Currently the registration page sorts course offerings by department. Sometimes people are looking for a course to fill a particular time slot. If you had some way to display this information, either as lists or by searching, it would help people find courses that worked with their existing schedules.

  6. Lookup Degrees Earned by Student

    We could use a service that would allow us to query by student and get a list of the degrees that student has earned from the UW. The representation would include Major, Program, and Degree and a date (possibly just year and quarter).

  10. Provide central place to host resource scheduling information

    Expand the current function of r25 (or like service) to not only be able to host classroom data, but any available space on campus. Provide a Web Service so that current space seeking apps could hook into it. Also have a interface that building coordinators could access that eliminates the need for every building to have a separate booking app.
