LookupStudentAdvisors (V1)

 This activity was migrated to a new namespace. For new workflows use LookupStudentAdvisors (V2) in Cmc.Nexus.Common.Workflow.

The LookupStudentAdvisors activity captures the Student Enrollment Period Id from an event and returns the Advisors that are currently assigned to a student. In most situations, the EnrollmentPeriod will only be associated with a single Advisor type. The Advisor type (Academic = AD, Admissions = AM, etc.) is selected in Module field of the lookup activity.

Based on the EnrollmentPeriod and Module, the LookupStudentAdvisors activity returns the staff member's FirstName, LastName, Module, and GroupName.

A use case for this activity is to assign a document or task to a staff member to follow up with a student when a specific event occurs, for example, the student is put on academic probation.
