Schedules for Sync Jobs

The data being moved from PeopleSoft to D2L/MyCourses via the Academic Technology sync jobs involve: 

• commons enrollments
  
  
• class enrollments (students and faculty)
  
  
• course templates
  
  
• course offerings (including merged courses)
  
  
• course sections (which are required for all course offerings)
  
  
• user adds/updates  
  
  
  The following table shows how often each of the sync jobs run throughout the day:

• It is important to note that the times above are when each process Starts, and each process can take anywhere from 2 minutes to 2 hours before completion.
• The sync job for Sections is what prompts new course sections to be added to your MyCourses account. 
• Sync jobs run on this particular schedule because of the sheer volume of data being processed.  Oftentimes, data is synched over the course of multiple terms (e.g. current and next, current and previous, or all three). 

Requests for Changes Outside of Sync Jobs

User processing (adding new students) is scheduled for twice per day, however, urgent additions and updates can be made by the Academic Technologies team. The same holds true for enrollments.  If a student urgently needs to appear in a D2L/MyCourses class list before the next enrollment sync job is run, the Academic Technologies team can process them manually.  These are extreme exceptions to the regularly running sync jobs but can be done at the discretion of the Academic Technologies team.
