Why should I enter a code when creating courses and sections?
Short, unique codes identify courses and batches more easily than their full names.
Codes are used in place of full names, which can be long and hard to recognise at a glance.
Why codes help
- Easier to recognise: a short code is quicker to read and reference than a long course name.
- Handy shortcuts: codes are used as short identifiers for course batches throughout the system.
- No ambiguity: each code must be unique, so there is no confusion between similar courses.
Note: Codes are optional, but using them keeps your course structure tidier and easier to work with.
