View source for Audit Master Schedule Seats vs Requests

__NOTOC__
'''This report is very useful after the student requests for the new year's schedule have been entered.  The report will compare the student requests for courses and the number of sections/seats available in the next year's [[Master Schedule Editor]].  From here, the user can plan how many course sections  are needed, as well as move student requests from one course to another. This program should be ran before the [[Automatic Scheduler]] to identify potential problems.'''

'''The count of requests per course helps the user plan on how many sections of each course are needed in planning the New Year master schedule.'''

'''Identify requests that may be for classes not offered in the master schedule, and as a result, either need to be added to the master schedule, or the students need to be moved to request a different course.'''
