Creating future student applications in bulk

In the example, Synergetic generates six applications for the prospective student:

  • Year 7 in 2016
  • Year 8 in 2017
  • and so on, up to Year 12 in 2021.

To create a number of new enrolment applications for a future student:

  1. Open the Applications tab in Future Student Maintenance. See Future Student Maintenance - Applications tab.
    The Applications tab of the Future Student Maintenance window is displayed.
  2. Click .
    The Bulk Add Applications window is displayed.
  3. Select the campus in the Campus field.
    The application date defaults to the current date. If required, select a different application date. 
  4. Select the:
    • year for the first application in the Application Start area
    • last year of application in the Application End area.

    This allows you to create a series of applications for different enrolment years and year levels.
  5. Click .

    Note:
    Synergetic can also be configured to automatically generate an application record for all years and year levels past the selected enrol year. See AutoGenerate configuration setting in the System maintenance manual.
