Close or Open a DPT (Active/Inactive)

DPT Editors are able to change the status of DPTs within their own school to either Active or Inactive. This will determine whether or not the DPT is currently being made available to students and should therefore be published in the DRPS.

The status of a DPT can be updated using the Close/Open DPT link in the DPT Maintenance menu.

This will open the Close/Open DPT: Search for Programme screen as displayed below.

DPTs can be retrieved using the dynamic list box in the Programme field or by searching on a combination of School, Scheme and Programme Name.

To retrieve the DPTs for a programme start typing either the code or name into the field to automatically display a list of matching programmes.

Click on the programme in the dropdown list to select it and populate the field with the programme code.

Click  to retrieve the programme.

As programme codes are unique, only one record has been returned. Click the programme ink to view the DPTs.

The system automatically undertakes a student check to determine if there are any students scheduled on the DPTs displayed.

Having confirmed that there aren’t any students currently on the DPT that will be affected by the status change, click on the Active status hyperlink to change it to Inactive

Click  to commit the change.

Click  to return to the list of DPTs for the programme.
