You can export student mark book results for a class to Microsoft Excel, using the Mark Book tab of Student Results Maintenance. See Student Results Maintenance - Mark Book tab.
The export can also include:

  • class code, class campus and various flags
  • comments for each mark book result
  • the Synergetic IDs for the students.

For example, three mark books have been defined for German A classes, including German A (S/GEEA1). See Subject Assessment Maintenance - Summary tab - Mark Book sub-tab.

To export student mark book results to Microsoft Excel for the selected class:

  1. Open the Mark Book tab of Student Results Maintenance. See Student Results Maintenance - Mark Book tab.
    The Mark Book tab of the Student Results Maintenance window is displayed.
  2. Right click.
    Tip: You may need to right click on an area of the window that does not have drop-down values.
    The following menu is displayed.
  3. Select Copy Grid Contents to Excel.
    The Transfer Data into Excel window is displayed.
  4. Update the selections, if required.
    Note: In this example we have selected the Include any fields not shown on the grid field.
  5. Click .
    A Microsoft Excel spreadsheet is created with the student mark book results data.

  • Any comments against the mark book result for the student, represented as integers from 1 to n.

Make ID the first field if it exists

Select this field to include the students' Synergetic IDs in the spreadsheet. They are included in the first column.

In the following general example, the Synergetic IDs are highlighted in column A.
