Release Notes 2.1.1 (July 2021)
Changes
COMMUNITY MEMBERS
Student Searches
Leaving all filter options unticked will now return all results without the student's enrolment state considered.
In the Search Community Member screen, this will return all community members, including non-students), unless another student-specific filter is applied.
Searching for classes
Schools that have an academic year that spans two calendar years can now search for classes for the current academic year, with any of the following criteria:
- First calendar year
- Last calendar year
- Academic year level
- Class name
Sick Bay Visits
A new date and time selector has been added for Sick Bay Visits. Just enter the time in 12-hour format, and click AM to switch to PM, or vice versa.
Please note that the positions of these fields may vary, depending if a school has single- or multi-campus configuration.
General
The loading bar that appears after when opening Educonnex will simply appear as the regular Educonnex loading animation on a blank page. This is just a cosmetic change - the functionality remains the same.
ADMINISTRATION
Student Roll-Over
Two indicators have now been added to ensure that the next natural progression of rolling over students is clear to the user who is performing the action.
When selecting the academic year to roll over, completed years are marked as such:
This indicates to the user that they should be selecting the next academic year level which is not marked with '(Completed)'.
Additionally, a notification will appear when performing a roll-over (even in test mode), to indicate any academic years prior to the select one, that have not yet been rolled over.
Educonnex will not consider a roll-over to be completed, if only performed in test mode.
CALENDAR EVENTS
Recurring Calendar Events
Recurring calendar events will now show the first event start/end date/time, the frequency or repetition, and the final recurrence in the series. This is to give users a chance to confirm the parameters they have entered, and the span of the series of events they are creating. Users should pay careful attention to these details, to avoid having to deactivate large numbers of events as well as any complications that may arise as a result.
