   - Credit Rollovers
     - Most schools make Electives their rollover category so any extra credits taken in any other course category will be “rolled over” to electives. Do this by clicking on the Electives category and then selecting the “Make this the rollover category for all graduation types” button. \\ The rollover category will be highlighted in green. \\ {{:plsis:transcript_settings3.png?nolink&300|}} \\
-    - You may have multiple rollover categories. \\ For example, we have a Higher Math category and a Lower Math category. Sometimes students only take Higher Math and their credits first rollover to the Lower Math category before rolling over to general/electives. Credits would continue to roll to electives if the secondary category is full. \\ Use the drop-down in the "Rollover to" field to choose where you want the extra credits in a category to roll.
