Add Exception Event for Faculty
It is likely that at some point, individual faculty members may have circumstances that require exceptions to be made in their journey. It is easy to create exceptions in Lifecycle Management that will apply only to a given user, but will not effect other faculty members of the same rank and/or on the same professional journey.
When someone is added to the program, they are scheduled to go through the ranks and events that are part of their appointment at a particular rank and year. Events can be added or deleted for an individual, and these changes will not effect other users. The most common example would be changes in the timeline of events because of leave, or when users are hired or appointed outside of rank.
