Transcript hold decisions

Role aware

This page proves registrar transcript hold decisions: Title IV exceptions, FERPA consent gates, California BPPE state rule-pack checks, school policy gates, staff recorded reasons, disclosure-log previews, and disabled production release actions.

Audience
Staff
Current limits
The transcript hold decision page uses local deterministic fixtures only. It does not release production transcripts, email or mail official transcripts, write disclosure logs, automatically apply balance holds, bypass Title IV or FERPA gates, activate state rule packs, edit balances, or override staff decision reasons.

Support request boundary

Use Sev2 if production transcript release appears enabled; if Title IV repayment agreement or school-error exceptions can be held; if a third-party request releases without FERPA consent; if state rule-pack gates are skipped; or if staff can hold without a recorded reason. Use Sev3 for request, gate, decision, disclosure-log, or rule-label issues; use Sev4 for labels or layout feedback. This panel does not submit a support case.

Sev1: Critical outage or data-risk emergency

Target: 1-hour response, 24/7 paging during pilot

Sev2: Major workflow blocked

Target: 4 business hours

Sev3: Standard product question or non-urgent issue

Target: 1 business day

Sev4: How-to, cosmetic, or future enhancement

Target: 2 business days
