Can courses have more than one length in the SIMS Schedule when converting data to eSIS?
When a school has a course scheduled in SIMS, the course length needs to be consistent to convert accurately in eSIS. What this means is that the course can only have one length. Meeting codes that are attached to a single course in the SIMS master schedule can only be for one amount of time. The time attached to the meeting code would be for every day of the week or for certain days of the week only. A single course cannot have a combination of one section of the course meeting certain days of the week and another section of the same course meeting every day of the week. Example: 2023C section 1 meeting code 01 (This code would be set up as meeting 1st period every day of the week). 2023C section 2 meeting code 1MWF (This code would be set up as meeting 1st period but only for Monday, Wednesday and Friday). The example above has always been fine for SIMS but with conversion to the eSIS software, this data would not convert correctly. What needs to be done to correct this conversion is
