Running Bulk Academic History Reports in the KSU Advisor Center

 Objective

Advisors using the KSU advisor center can run bulk academic history reports by following this guide:

Academic History Reports enables you to schedule advance preparation of reports for one or more advisees.  Reports are processed around 5am on the day they are scheduled. If you access Academic Reports without selecting advisees from the advisee list, you can only review existing queued reports or cancel queued jobs.

The reports are in PDF format and appear in a new window, additional tab or as a download depending on your browser.  You must have the pop-up blocker on your web browser disabled for KSIS in order to view Academic History Reports. Refer to How to disable web browser pop-up blockers for assistance.
