Setting completion and success criteria in SCORM 2004

I understand in SCORM 2004 that being able to specify completion and success criteria separately means that I can set a course so that it can be marked as completed unsuccessfully if a user has taken it but had 'deferred success' (i.e. failed ) based on slide views and/or the quiz status. It helps the instructor to distinguish completion from comprehension/superficial from deep engagement (assuming the quiz is suitably searching).

I assume therefore that if I am creating a course that does not have a quiz but I want to report if it has been completed or not I only need to set the completion criteria in CP9. Is that correct, or should I set the completion and success criteria to be the same (i.e. x% slide views)? It might not make much difference but I would like to know what is best practice.

TIA

You still need to set both criteria.  So use slide views would make sense.

Thanks Rod. That is what I do but I did wonder if it was necessary to set success since this is optional in the settings.

The acid test is to upload to whatever LMS you are intending to use and see what happens.  They're all different.
