In the Select Catalogue Files panel, click the Browser button adjacent to the relevant file name field and navigate to the stored location of each file. You must ensure that the file selected for each file type is the correct one. As long as you have selected the correct file name for each file type, when you click the Import Catalogue Files button, the files are automatically imported in the correct order. This may take a few minutes. When the files have imported successfully, the Activity Log is displayed and confirms which files have been imported. Click the Close button. In the Select Performance Measures panel, click the Browser button adjacent to the Performance Measures XML field and navigate to the stored location of this file. Highlight the required file then click the Open or OK button. Click the Import Performance Files button to begin the import of the file. The Performance Measures file(s) can be downloaded from SupportNet. The version number of this file(s) is updated incrementally when any changes are made and a posting is made on SupportNet advising users of these changes. Click the Print button to print a copy of the file names and locations for future reference, if required. When the page is next opened, the Last Updated On field in both panels reflects the date of changes made to the file contents. You must navigate to the locations of the most recently downloaded files before importing the catalogues again. Once the relevant Performance Measures.xml file has been imported, you can print two reports that enable you to check the integrity of the QANs in the basedata: Certification Elements without QANs - this report lists the Series Board Entry Code and the Title of all basedata elements without a QAN. You must enter the missing QANs via Focus | Basedata | Basedata for Season dialog to ensure the accuracy of the PI data in Exams Organiser. Certification Elements with unmatched QANs - this report lists the Series Board Entry Code, Title and QAN of all basedata elements that have a different QAN from the QAN details provided in the Performance Measures.xml file. You must correct the QANs in the basedata to ensure the accuracy of the PI data in Exams Organiser. NOTE: Both of these reports check the QAN information held for the past four years.
Select Reports | EDI Submission Log to display the Report Criteria – Print EDI Submission Log dialog. Select the date range for the report by completing the From and To Date fields. Click the OK button to produce the report. Candidate Progress Report This report can be accessed by selecting Reports | Checks | Candidate Progress. This report enables Examinations Officers to track the progress of a candidate within an award, over a sequence of seasons. This is achieved by displaying all results for any aspect associated with the chosen award. These usually belong to elements associated with the award, but may also be for the award itself (an Edexcel Enrolment) or it may be a coursework mark for a component assigned to an associated element. The report header displays the candidate personal details including their name, as well as their Exam Numbers, Year, Reg Group and a combination of examination board, qualification and award details. For each examination, the report body consists of the parent assessment code, type and title as well as the aspect type, result and associated season. IMPORTANT NOTE: If an embargo has been set for the current season to disable the viewing or examination related data for a defined period of time, and you are currently in the embargo period, only authorised personnel can run this report for the current season. Select Reports | Checks | Candidate Progress to display the Report Criteria – Candidate Progress dialog. Select the Award, Class and Membership Date Range for the group by clicking the appropriate Field Browser and Calendar buttons. Select the Candidates by clicking the adjacent Field Browser button and select the Date Range by clicking the appropriate Calendar button. The From date defaults to the beginning of the current academic year and the To date defaults to today’s date. Click the OK button to produce the report.
