Secondary Full Period Marks Entry {SSTUD2-2}


This option provides for the duplicate entry of Full Period marks for the purpose of validation. The entering of the marks is done in the same way as for the primary entry of marks under option {SSTUD2-1}.


The way in which the validation will be done will be determined by the way in which the Validation Control “VC” (On-line validation of Marks) under option {SMNT-1} is set. If it is set to “N” the user will be warned each time a mark is entered, that it differs from the primary mark. It will, nevertheless, be possible to <COMMIT> such records.


If the "VC" validation is set to “Y” it will not be possible to <COMMIT> such changes. The user will be forced to first update the primary mark before the secondary mark can be updated.


Batch Control 

It is possible to use batch control for verification of Full Period marks entry by supplying the total score of all marks for that subject in the “Marks Batch Total” field. After the marks have been <COMMIT>ted, the system will add the total of the marks entered, verify this against the entered Batch Total, and display the calculated total with a warning if the two totals differ.
 
This option is governed by the system cycle “E”. The students will be displayed in student number sequence, and input from class lists, etc., can be done quickly. Cancellations and exemptions are excluded.
