STR - Details Listing

Overview

This is a multi-purpose listing allowing you to:

  • Generate detailed reports (PDF, Word® or Excel®, Screen with Hyperlinks) using filters and search criteria.

  • Nominate additional fields to include in your report.

  • Save your report to re-run it later with the same search mode filters and additional fields.

  • Create reports to be scheduled and distributed using TASS.web User Interface > Bookmarks tab > My Saved Lists.

Another user can't access a report you have created and vice versa. This is because each user’s configuration depends on the individual user's security permissions to determine the fields that can be included. 

My Saved Listings

To use a previously saved report, navigate to ‘My Saved Listings' in the top right corner of the screen and select the report you require.  ‘My Saved Listings' is only visible if saved reports exist.

To create a new Saved Listing, enter your report parameters, then navigate to the ‘Report Options’ tab.  Type a report name or a meaningful description into the ‘Save this Report as’ field, then click ‘GO’.  

Saved report names cannot be edited, so please select your report name carefully.

To modify an existing Saved Listing, select from ‘My Saved Listings’, make the necessary changes, then click 'GO'.   Ensure that the ‘Save this Report as’ field on the ‘Report Options’ tab is populated with the same report name as the original.  This field will automatically populate when a Saved Listing is selected.

To delete a Saved Listing, select the report from ‘My Saved Listings’, then click 'Delete'.  A Saved Listing cannot be deleted when it is attached to a current schedule or has run a scheduled occurrence, as the program uses these listings to preserve a record of when and to whom emails have been sent.

Saved Listings can also be viewed, managed, and scheduled in TASS.web User Interface > Bookmarks tab > My Saved Lists.

Selection Criteria

There are ten Selection Criteria categories available.  Click the Selection Criteria category on the navigation bar or scroll down the page until you find the required category.   

The Selection Criteria fields determine the 'filters' used to select which student details are included in the report.   You can use any combination of Selection Criteria categories to select the students for your report.

Search strings entered into the filter fields are case-insensitive.

Wildcards (*) can be used in basic text fields to broaden your search.  

e.g. To report on all surnames beginning with 'S', type 'S*' into the 'Surname' field or to report on students with any type of data in the field, simply use an Asterix (*).

Wildcards cannot be used in fields with picklists and dropdown menus.
