Verification of Assessment Marks {TASKS1-7}

This option is similar to {TASKS1-2}, however the mark is written away to the adjusted mark.

Use validation ‘VC’ on {SMNT-1} to indicate if the primary and secondary mark differ. If this validation is switched on, the secondary input of marks will alert the user when the secondary mark differs from the value entered initially. If the validation is switched off a warning will be given. However, if the validation is switched on, the system will not allow the user to continue if the marks differ. The mark entry user and verification mark user may not be the same.. Verification is not done on Question Level as on {TASKS1-2}. Marks may not be entered for cancelled bundles.

Fields in this option:

Block 1: Verification of Assessment Marks

The user may only query on block 1:

Field	Type & Length	Description
Bundle Number	N5	The system allocates sequential Bundle Numbers when this Block is <COMMIT>ted. This number is printed on the bundle list and is used to recall the details of a bundle when the marks are entered. For the combination Year / Block or Month, the bundle number will start with 1.
Sequence	N5	The system calculates the number of bundles that were previously created for this subject and assignment or paper for the Year / Block or Month combination and allocates Sequential Numbers. This number is useful to check on the progress of marking in a particular subject.
Calendar Year	YYYY	The Calendar Year for which this bundle is created.
Block / Examination Month	A2	If a bundle for assignments is created, then the Block Code is required. For exam paper bundles the exam month must be entered.
Subject Code	A7	The Subject Code for which the bundle is created.
Offering Type	A2	The Offering Type field is not mandatory but can be entered when bundles are created per Offering Type. If an Offering Type is entered, only students with the same Offering Type can be linked to the bundle. The <LIST> function displays valid Offering Types for the subjects.
Campus	A2	The Campus field is not mandatory but can be entered when bundles are created per Campus Code. If a Campus Code is entered, then only students with offering types linked to the Campus option {GCS-5} can be included on the bundle. The <LIST> function displays valid campus codes.
Date Out	DD-MON-YYYY	The date the bundle was sent out for marking to the marker. If the bundle is sent out immediately after it was created, then the date out can be entered. If not the field can be left blank until the bundle is sent out. If the validation 'Print bookout date, BD’ is 'Y' on {SMNT-1} then populate the 'date out' field with the system date when bundle header is created.
Calculated Date	DD-MON-YYYY	As soon as the Date Out is filled in, this date is calculated according to the number of days which must be added to the Date Out as was specified in {SMNT-1b2} for the field Number of Days to Determine Date Calculated. This date will be the date on which the bundle is due back after marking.
Date Created	DD-MON-YYYY	The system will default to the date on which the bundle was created, and cannot be changed by the user.
Date In	DD-MON-YYYY	For this option the date need not to be entered as it will be entered when {TASKS1-2} is used to give an indication of the date the bundle was received back or when the marks have been entered.
Personnel Number	N9	The person who is responsible for the marking of the bundle. The <LIST> function displays all valid Personnel Numbers. The person linked to the bundle can be the same as the lecturer.
Activity Code	A4	Enter the Activity Code for the bundle. Allow Activity Codes created on {SDSERC-3} where the event indicator is either linked to “Subject” of “Both”. The description is also displayed.
Lecturer Number	N9	The personnel number of the individual who is responsible for the control of the marking of this subject. The personnel number and name of the primary person as defined in option {SACADO-10} of the academic structure will be displayed with the <LIST> function, but can be changed by the user if required.
Language	A1	Should the bundles be created in order of Language preference, the preferred language indicator (E)nglish or (A)lternate must be indicated. The system will not allow the student in the bundle if the student’s preferred language differs from the indication given for this field. If the field is left blank, no test against preferred language will be done.
Number of Submissions	N2	The Number of Submissions gives an indication of the number of times a student can submit an assignment or an exam paper for a subject.
Sort Order for Student	A1	The order in which the students will be displayed on Block 2. By Student Number, Sequence or Alphabetically.

Example:

Block 2: Students in this Bundle.
