The number of sections (From Sec and To Sec) was calculated when you ran the Resource Allocator Record Creation utility based solely on the number of seats and the number of requests. Once the instructor resource courses are accurate, you can recalculate the number of sections for the courses on the Section Info tab by clicking Recalc Sections.

  • Student course requests (increasing or reducing the number of students requesting a course)
