When enabled, the Temporary Enrollments feature option allows you to temporarily enroll various users such as mentors, substitute teachers, designers, and other roles into other user's courses as needed.
This feature allows authorized admins to quickly share all or some enrollments from a Provider to a Recipient, with the ability to schedule when enrollment should begin and end, and what role the Recipient should receive. Once established, Temporary Enrollment Pairings can be viewed and managed.
Notes:
- To use this feature option, you must have the following permissions: Temporary Enrollments-add AND one of the following: Users Designer-add, Users Observer-add, Users Students-add, Users TAs- add, Users Teachers-add, SIS Data-read.
- When Temporary Enrollments is enabled, sub-account admins can create temporary enrollment pairings. Additionally, Root Account admins can manage temporary enrollment pairings in all sub-accounts.

When creating temporary enrollments, a Provider is a user whose courses are shared with another user.
To create a temporary enrollment pairing, locate the Provider. Then click the Temporary Enrollment icon.

A temporary enrollment recipient is a user who receives access to a user's courses. To find a recipient of temporary enrollments for a user, search for a user by Email Address, Login ID or SIS ID [1]. Then click the Next button [2].
Note: Depending on your institution's preferences, some 'Add recipient by' options may not be available.

Add the date and time the recipient should receive access to the course(s) using the Begins On and Time fields [1]. Add the date and time the recipient's access should end using the Until and Time fields [2].
To select the user's role, click the Select role drop-down menu [3].
By default, when a temporary enrollment ends, the enrollment is deleted. To select a different ending enrollment state, click the Ending enrollment state drop-down menu [4].
By default, active and published courses where the Provider has an Instructor-based role are selected. Click the checkbox next to each course(s) the recipient should have access to [5].

Notes:
- The time and role fields are stored in local browser storage and display the most recent selections in new workflows until the local browser storage is cleared.
- Temporary enrollment recipients are restricted to the same course section(s) as the provider.
- Temporary enrollments are not available for concluded courses.
- When enrolling a recipient with more permissions than the provider in a course, a tooltip states that the recipient will have different permissions than the provider in the enrolled course.
- When creating a temporary enrollment pairing from a provider in a sub-account, only courses within the sub-account hierarchy are available. To pair additional courses, you must create the temporary enrollment pairing from within the sub-account or root account that contains the courses.
