SAP #6B: Transfer Units in MAXT Course Exclusions</a> will be held on <b>Tuesday, October 31<sup>st</sup> from 10am to 11:30am</b> where we will demonstrate the solution to the FA Community. For those that agreed to test, your window of testing is from Tuesday,
October 31<sup>st</sup> to Monday November 13<sup>th</sup> by end of business day. That affords a two week testing window to have colleges confirm the issue is addressed in UAT before the solution is released into Production on November 28, 2023. With the
upcoming Thanksgiving Holiday week, it is imperative testers complete and submit sign off by the
