GSHIP chartfields
Editing chartfields on the GSHIP premium administrative page
GSHIP premiums are charged to departmental chartfield strings using the sources from the GradStar maintenance page. However, users have a window of opportunity to change those sources if needed before the journal is created. Notices are sent via the Business Manager’s listserv and the GradStar listserv to alert users that changes can be made to GSHIP chartfields.
Navigation Steps
- Go to the Student Admin Menu, then GradStar, GradStar GSHIP, and GSHIP Admin Premium

- Click Search. Leave fields blank for a list of all values.
