Ability to generate year GPA for outside transfer school grades
When a student transfer to our school we want to be able to generate a year GPA for each year they attending the transfer school(s). We can include them if they were also enrolled in our school during the same year but we are unable to include them when they only attended the transfer school.

The majority of our students come from transfer schools. Thus, almost all of our students' transcripts are incomplete as is. By not including GPAs to be included from other schools, I have to export the transcript and manually edit it. There is currently no way to save the edited transcript to the student's profile.
As the provider of the graduate's official transcript, we need to provide this information to colleges.
As users of the product, we should have the ability to decide whether or not to have transfer schools' GPA displayed on our transcript. The decision not to show them is a philosophical one that should be left up to each individual school. Since the transfer GPAs do factor into the cumulative GPA, it makes no sense not to have them displayed. As it now, the displayed GPAs look wrong as visually the elements making up that GPA of not fully displayed, thus raising accuracy questions.
