- The class the student has taken must have Potential Credit hours greater than zero in Historical Grades ([StoredGrades]potentialcrhrs).
- The class the student has taken must have, in Historical Grades, a Grade Scale Name ([S_MD_SGR_X]Grade_Scale_Name) or the Associated Grade Scale ([StoredGrades]gradeScale_Name) that has a Letter Grade Mapping that indicates which grades are 'B or Greater' ([S_MD_GSI_LetterGradeMapping_C]Code04)
