Currently some attributes only allow for the code to be extracted and not the description.  

An example is the Academic Department attribute from the Course folder only provides the code for the academic department and not the description. (URM-70361)

Use case:

Users require the description to be extracted in order for the information to be human-readable when analyzing and sharing the information with others as the code is not understood by many.
