In rare cases, this may be combined with <b>Deactivate after x Days not imported</b> to add a buffer.

	Within every section record (<i>Other > Listings > Sections</i>) you will find a checkbox labelled "Ignore Deactivate." If checked, any active registrations linked to this section will remain active, overriding the import. Manually deactivated registrations can still be automatically reactivated, only deactivations are ignored. The benefit of this option is that it requires no changes from your IT and is an easy change to implement. A potential downside is that this applies to all students enrolled in the section.

	If your IT are able to continue sending these specific registrations in their import file, the "Deactivate when not imported" option can be leveraged to keep only those registrations active from the prior term. As an alternate but similar option, if your IT can send the entire past semester of data with registration status codes filled in for all of them, that can also be used to only keep specific registrations active.

	A common question we receive is in regards to keeping registrations (and students) from prior semesters active. This may be due to incomplete registrations, grace periods between terms, or simply for testing purposes. There isn't a single answer for this, as there are different solutions depending on how your import is configured and what registrations you're trying to activate. This article will go into detail on some of the options available to accomplish this. If you have additional questions, feel free to reach out to us on our helpdesk using the "Support" tab at the top of the screen.

These options should be kept in mind when troubleshooting activations, when manually creating students/registrations, or when attempting to reactivate inactive records.
