The Days to Flag Roster Additions system preference determines the length of time a student's name will appear in green color within a section roster in both the Instruction module and on Course Section rosters. This gives the teacher and any office staff an indication that the student is new to the section.
The default value for this preference is 10 days. A value must be entered for this preference

Start Date Logic
Note the following:
- This preference will determine the number of days the start date is green in roster views.
- The roster start date is considered Day 0 of the roster flag time period. If the roster start date is in the past, a student may never display in green text.
- If no roster start date has been entered for a section, the student name will not display in green.
