Adding a new student in the current year after the new year has been created (Next Year Process)

If a student enrols at your organisation in the current year after you have created the new academic year, you need to create a:

  • Current student record in the current period.
  • Create a new academic year again to add them to the new year. Synergetic adds any new records and removes any records that you have deleted in the current year.


Note: Current year refers to the year that is ending. For example, if today's date is 20th November 2016, then the current year is 2016.Next year refers to the new year. For example, if today's date is 20th November 2016, then the next year is 2017.
