Description

This session provides methods to re-assign Plans to CourseCatalogs. A Plan may map to multiple CourseCatalogs and removing the last reference to a Plan is the equivalent of deleting it. Each CourseCatalog may have its own authorizations governing who is allowed to operate on it.

Adding a reference of a Plan to another CourseCatalog is not a copy operation (eg: does not change its Id).
