LookupStudentAdvisors (V2)

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.
