The academic progress job evaluates a student's progress toward completion of their educational objectives.
The academic progress job runs nightly or immediately, depending on the event. The nightly job is automatic and not schedulable. You can also manually launch the job to evaluate a student's academic progress after making a configuration change. If you change an existing academic requirement configuration, Workday requires you to manually run the task.
When the academic progress job runs, it considers all possible registrations and applies them to requirements.
You can view the job steps and failures each time the job runs. If necessary, you can rerun the Nightly Job Orchestration or manually launch the academic progress evaluation.
The academic progress job doesn't save reports or logs from previous runs.
