Courses in Draft or In Revision status can be bulk-published via the Course Manager. During bulk publishing, syllabus default requirements can be overridden, and associated course sections and data collections can be managed.

Click Add (1) to search for and select draft and in-revision courses. An enhanced search can be opened by clicking the magnifying glass (2).

Once courses are selected (1), click Add (2).

If necessary, the selected courses can be removed (1). By default, syllabus default form items configured as ‘course edit only’ will be overridden (2); when enabled, this means that the requirement that course edit only fields be populated prior to publishing the course(s) can be overridden and left blank if desired. Click Publish Courses (3) to continue publishing the selected courses in bulk.
-
During bulk publish, the ability to manage associated course sections (1) and, if applicable, associated data collections (2) is available. By default, only future terms will be affected by the bulk publish.

If Active and In Progress Terms is enabled, terms that are active or in progress can be selected (1). Once selections are made, a quick glance view at the terms and count of affected course sections will be displayed (2); the affected course sections will be the sections for the associated courses that will be published.

-
To complete bulk publishing, click Bulk Publish Courses. This will publish the selected courses in Draft status and cascade edits for courses in In Revision status. When 1000 or more courses are selected for bulk publishing, the platform may take up to 2 hours to complete processing the request.
