MODULE_VLE_MAP_MODE

Description

This property enables an institution to specify the type of relationship between the module_instance in the Student Record System and module information in the VLE, identified by MOD_INSTANCE_ID and VLE_MOD_ID respectively. By default, MOD_INSTANCE_ID plus VLE_MOD_ID form a unique constraint in module_VLE_map, which supports a many-to-many relationship between them.

If absent or "0", then MOD_INSTANCE_ID plus VLE_MOD_ID form a unique constraint in module_VLE_map.

If "1", then MOD_INSTANCE_ID values in module_VLE_map must be unique.

Purpose

To enable the constraints on the module_VLE_map entity to be varied between institutions.

Derivation

Jisc

0 or 1

Format

Notes

If MODULE_VLE_MAP_MODE is absent, a default value of 0 for this property will be assumed. This property value can be supplied explicitly, if desired. Also see the module_VLE_map entity.
