Course build is the scheduling reps side of Quest that they use to add/remove the PCS (or 701) sections from Quest. The Quest Navigation is: Waterloo Student Admin → CEM → Use → Course Build We create all the PCS sections (except the ones on the exceptions list) for courses offered for a term, we do all the necessary clean up using the rest of the queries in this procedure. Once we have done all that it’s up to the reps to log in and change, add, or remove any sections that were either missed, or intentionally left off by off our team that this term they want added, or that they don’t want a PCS section for. This is also where they can clean up any notes that on the PCS sections that were carried over from last year that need to be updated. We in Scheduling have told the reps it’s not our responsibility to change or check the notes that have been added to PCS sections, as we already maintain the ones on the real sections. If you’re feeling kind here’s the notes query: UW_RS_SCH_CLASS_NOTES_SB |
