Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Question: Can I assign a clearance to a student without restricting enrollment or grade viewing?
Answer: Yes. You can assign a clearance under Utilities > Clearances and simply uncheck the Hold Order option. This ensures that the student is notified of the requirement but can still proceed with enrollment and grade viewing.
