Available Reporting Periods - Single or Multiple
A single reporting period may only be made accessible to staff, or multiple reporting periods may be made accessible, either concurrently or separately.
For example:
Reports for Years 11 and 12 might need to be completed earlier than Years 9 and 10 reports. These would need to be set up as separate Reporting Periods and Teachers would need access to both.
Whilst operating in Semester 1, Teachers may also need access to the Semester 2 reporting period to assess activities and enter or calculate final results across both periods.
