Configure Upload Form

The Upload Form in Faculty Activity Reporting (FAR, Faculty180) allows Administrators to upload institutional data, such as faculty classifications and faculty courses, governing both manual and autoloads. The form must match the file exactly, except for Term and Year (required for Courses Taught, but not the Upload Form) and Start/End Term and Year (required for Faculty Classifications, but not the Upload Form).

 

The Upload Form must be used for data uploads to FAR when using the indirect transfer method. Once configured, the Upload Data feature is used to upload the institution's data.

 
  • For Courses Taught uploads, multi-select Activity Classification fields allow multiple values. 
  • In the Excel file that gets uploaded to FAR, separate each classification value with a pipe (e.g., classroom|online|distance).

Navigate to the Setup page and click Upload Form under Configuration.
