File types are used to classify the different types of classes. The file type can then be used to easily select records of students who are undertaking a certain type of class. That is, academic classes, music classes and so on.
For example, if you want to display your timetable for Music students, you would choose a FileType equal to M (for music).

The following table lists some sample file types:

File Type

Description

A

Academic.

C

Community Service.

D

Dance School.

E

AMEB Exams.

M

O

Outdoor Activities.

P

S

W

Winter Sport, if distinguished by season.

Y

Z

Note: File types are maintained in the luFileType lookup table. See Maintaining lookup tables in the Synergetic System maintenance manual.
