Reporting User Maintenance

Overview

This program is used to:

  • Provide teachers with access to individual Reporting Periods.

  • Remove teacher access to a Reporting Period.

  • Assign an 'Access Level' to each teacher who will use webBook and/or Staff Kiosk Assessment to enter comments and results during the Reporting Period.

This program is also available in TASS.web Student Admin > Academic Report > Setup Information > Reporting User Maintenance.

In version v01.059.05.200, this program was renamed from 'WebBook User Maintenance' to 'Reporting User Maintenance'.

Assign Reporting Periods

Teachers need to be assigned to each new reporting period that is created. Teacher allocations from a previous reporting period have no effect on the current reporting period. Refer to ‘Academic Reporting Checklist - Beginning of Reporting Period’ for more information.

  1. Navigate to TASS.web program System Admin > Users > Reporting User Maintenance or Student Admin > Academic Report > Setup Information > Reporting User Maintenance.

  2. Select the 'Assign Reporting Periods' option, then click 'GO'.

  3. Select the 'Reporting Year and Period' to which you will be assigning teachers, then click 'Next'.

The ‘Reporting Year and Period' will default to the current period as defined in TASS.web program Student Admin > Academic Reporting > Setup Information > Assessment Setup on the 'Result Periods’ tab, however, you can select another reporting period from the drop-down box.

  1. The program will display a list of current Teachers who do not have access to this Reporting Period in the 'Teachers not Assigned to the Reporting Period' column. Teachers who already have access will be displayed in the 'Assigned Teachers' column.

  2. To grant or remove access to a reporting period, highlight the required teacher name(s) and use the 'Selected' and 'All' buttons to move them between the 'Teachers not Assigned to the Reporting Period' and 'Assigned Teachers' columns.
