Staff Kiosk Markbook

This release includes further enhancements in the Staff Kiosk Markbook.

The 'Include all subject classes' box displays to subject Department Administrators and HODS allowing them to view students from all classes of the subject, their Final Results and Overall Subject Grades.
Here are the changes you'll see when the 'Include all subject classes' option is ticked:

• Activities now display for all classes of the subject (in addition to Final Results and Overall Subject Grades).

• Edit Maximum Results: This screen now displays all classes, each in it's own column, allowing for easier editing of maximum results across the subject classes.

• Calculation Rules: A 'Class' column has been added to the pop up screen, and calculation rules can be assigned to all subject classes at once. A 'Fill Down' button has also been added for faster rule entry.

• Calculation Details: A class filter has been added to the pop up screen so that each class's Calculation Details can be viewed, as it is possible to have different calculation details for classes of the same subject.

• Calculate Results: Results can be calculated for all classes of a subject at the same time.

• The Student listing now shows the subject Class in a separate column to allow for easy sorting.
