How do I?

Start the first semester of reports in a calendar year?

Each set of reports is stored as a reporting period. Normally a reporting period contains the reports for years 7 to 12. Many schools have 2 reporting periods in a year, but some may have an extra reporting period for an Interim set of reports at the beginning of a year.

  • Use the Edit Reporting Periods command to make a reporting report for a new semester of reports.

For example, creating a reporting period named Semester 1, 2017 would be for all first half of the year reports. After creating a new reporting period, use the Set Reporting Period command to make it the active set of data. When working as the reports administrator you must set the reporting period that you want to work in.

  • If there are reports from a previous year or semester, it is important to archive them in the Set Reports Progress command, before starting a new set of reports. See the last topic in the How do I? section for details on archiving.
