  2. Mass change Web access based on grade level

    It would be helpful to be able to add/remove Web Access for students based on a grade level. We do not want our 4k-1 grade student to have Web Access on but would need to turn on Web access for 2nd grade.

  3. Grading & Attendance Summary Report - Add Included Activities to Report

    This reports allows the user to choose certain activities, but the activity is not listed on the report. Adding the activity to the report will be very helpful when more than one activity is included. This will eliminate running the report per activity.

  4. Enrollment Report - Default Entity Option

    I love the Enrollment Report (WS\OF\AT\RE\AR\ER). I use it often and it is a helpful doublecheck for our WI membership reporting.

    This report would be even better if we had the option to only include students in their default entity. Sometimes I only want the students that have a particular default entity and sometimes I want to know all of the students in the entity.

    Thank you for your consideration.

  5. Survey Error Total Report Should be exportable to Excel

    State reporting reports should be excel compatible due to large amounts of data that needs analyzing. The totals report especially. Dumping to excel takes cleanup because of the extra page titles and no spaces between formats. All reports should be Excel compatible as it is the way to analyse data easily.

  6. Survey edit error reports option to print error decriptions at the end of the format and export function to Excel

    Error reports are lengthy due to printing each error description and overwhelms school staff. If they could export to excel they could manage the reports better and sort and view by error numbers. Plus putting the error description sheet separately so they can choose to print it or not.

  7. Hide Specific Courses in the Course Master

    I would like the ability to pick specific courses in the course master using a check box and hide them. We run a computerized credit recovery program and those courses need to stay active. There are a lot of them that I would like to hide similar to how I can hide rows or columns in an Excel or Google sheet. This would allow me to see only the active courses offered to the majority of students.

  8. attendance eligibility

    Our school is focusing on attendance and eligibility - right now, there is no way to schedule the Academic Eligibility report to run daily. It would be nice to add a "Today Less number of School Days" option for the date so I can schedule it to run daily instead of having to pull it daily.

  9. Scheduling - Print Teacher Schedules

    When printing out Teacher Schedules (WS/OF/CS/RE/TS), it would be nice to have the option to choose specific teachers, but more than one teacher at a time. We have multiple teachers who teach in different departments, so just choosing a department or a subject, doesn't get us what we need. We would like to have the option to checkbox more than one teacher at a time.

  10. Add the ability for custom district report cards to be emailed along with the option to be posted to portfolio.

    We still print and mail report cards home, it would save us a great deal of time and money if we had the ability to send the report cards to email, allow us to select Home email and family 1 or 2 Guardian email addresses. Give us the option to send Via email and/or post to portfolio.

  11. Make the Hall Pass button available in the Health Office Visit screen.

    It would be helpful to be able to print a hall pass from the health office visit screen instead of having to exit out of that screen and print from the Entry by date screen.

  14. Teacher Requests for Changes to Grades count by entity

    All my administrators are seeing "(4)" next to their "Teacher Requests for Changes to Previously Posted Grades", but those 4 requests are at our HS entity. The number should only display at the entity that has the request for changes.

  15. Auto Email for parent email changes

    In the Advanced Features - Automated Emails under Demographic Changes add an auto email for parent email changes. This way staff using other software programs such as SEEDS knows the email changed and can change it in their systems.

  17. message center staff groups

    It would be great have the ability to create groups of staff That could be selected to include with messages. Right now it involves adding all staff using additional recipients. That is cumbersome and prone to forgetting someone.

  18. Enhance LEP Student Indicator

    We are required to track LEP students even after they are fluent. Could the indicator have an option to "Show Indicator even if Student has exited the Program" similar to what is available for the Special Ed Disability indicator?

  19. Medicaid Consent default to blank instead of NO

    Update the Medicaid Consent on Student Profile > Special Ed > Other SE tab to default to blank. There is no way to run a report to see which parents we need to contact and which parents said no.

  20. Add Provider field to Entry by Student Browse, Student Intervention View

    Staff that are designated the Provider for the Students Intervention need to be able to easily locate their students to update their intervention records. Currently they would need to run a report to identify their students and locate them in the Browse. If a new column could be added for Provider, they would easily be able to filter the students they are responsible for.
