Predefine Values for Graduate Data Fields



Graduate Data Fields, or GDFs can be predefined in the Data Fields menu, which can be helpful for categories like Degree and Major to avoid errors and ensure consistency in your data for display and announcement.
  1. In the Data Fields module, select the GDF where you would like to use predefined answers by selecting the blue edit icon.
  2. Click Add Multiple Answers and list your answers in the text box.
  3. Click the Save Multiple Answers button.
  4. Click Save.
In the example below, MO Assistant will not allow any graduate to be uploaded to the site that does not have one of the three answers in the Degree column: Associate, Bachelors, Doctoral.
