My Saved Listings

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

Click here for more information about Saved Listings.

To modify an existing Saved Listing, select it from the ‘My Saved Listings’ drop-down list and make the necessary changes. Ensure that the ‘Save this Report as’ field in the ‘Report Options’ is filled with the same report name as the original. Once you've made these adjustments, click 'GO'.

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.

Communication Rules Selection Criteria

The ‘Communication Rules Selection Criteria’ section determines the student address data to be included in the listing.

Use the Communications Rules drop-down list to select which Communication Rule(s) to include in the listing.

Select the ‘Limit Report to one line per student and skip additional communication rules’ checkbox to restrict the listing to a single address data line for each student.

The single address data line provided for each student is selected based on:

  1. The ‘Call Order’ of the Address data for the defined Communication Rule(s).

  2. If the ‘Call Order’ field is blank or the same for multiple entries, the single address line is based on the Parent Code associated with the Student.

  3. If the Parent Code is not associated with the selected Communication Rule(s), the single address line is based on the Parent Code, followed by the Address Block number in ascending order.

Unselect the ‘Limit Report to one line per student and skip additional communication rules’ checkbox to generate multiple Communication Rules Address data lines for each student in the listing. When this checkbox is unselected, a separate address data line containing all related address information will be generated for each Communication Rule.

Relationship Tags Selection Criteria

The ‘Relationship Tags Selection Criteria’ section allows you to select which Parents to include in the listing based on their Relationship Tags and Address Blocks.

Use the ‘Relationship Tag' drop-down list to select which parent(s) to include in the listing based on their the Relationship to the Student.

These tags are then assigned to Students and Parents in Bookmarks tab > Community > Edit Relationships or via the ‘Addresses & Comm Rules’ tab of the Student Record in TASS.web Student Admin > Student Records > Students.

Use the ‘Parent Address’ drop-down lists to select which Address Blocks to use in the listing for ‘Parent 1’ and ‘Parent 2’.

The ‘Parent 1’ and ‘Parent 2’ field names are customisable and may be labelled differently at your school. These field names are derived from the ‘Person Position 1’ and ‘Person Position 2’ tags configured in TASS.web Student Admin > Parent Records > Setup Information > Parent Records Setup.

Click here for an Administrator Note.

The ‘Parent Address’ drop-down lists are populated with the school-defined address block descriptions that have been configured in TASS.web Parent Records > Setup Information > Parent Records Setup on the ‘Addresses’ tab.

If the selected Address block exists for the Parent but contains no address data, blank cells will still be included in the listing.

Select the ‘Fallback to Default Address’ checkbox to retrieve data from the ‘Default Address’ block when the previously selected ‘Parent 1’ or ‘Parent 2’ Address block is not defined.

Click here for an Administrator Note.

The default address block is defined in TASS.web Student Admin > Parent Records > Setup Information > Parent Records Setup on the 'Parents' tab.

The ‘Default Address’ block is marked with an asterisk (*) in TASS.web Student Admin > Parent Records > Parent Information > Parents on the 'Address' tab.
