Run Details

This report is used primarily as a summary report to plan resource allocation for assignment tracking and receipt. It is capable of aggregating all assignments within a chosen Assessment Period and (optionally) Teaching Period for pre-determined calendar weeks.

It will typically be run before or at the beginning of a Teaching Period, but may also be run at other times for more up to date information.

The Assignments Due Date Summary Report block contains:

Parameters tab

• Assessment Calendar
• Owning Org Unit
• Mode
• Format
  The report may be run at two different 'levels' based on user parameter values.
  "High Level - summary report for specified assessment period (Specific Owning Org Unit and Unit Mode should not be entered)"
  At the highest level, a user may enter a value only for the Assessment Calendar parameter and leave all other parameters NULL. Any values entered for parameters other than Assessment Calendar are ignored. The resultant output will be a summary for all assignments within the specified period.
  "Low Level - summary report for specified Assessment Period/Owning Org Unit/Unit Mode"
  At the lowest level, a user may specify Owning Org Unit and Unit Mode detail, resulting in assignments being summarised for the specified org unit(s) / unit mode(s).

Rules/Notes:

Note: The % symbol indicates that the parameter is not considered for processing.

Most parameters in this job are used to refine the data set produced in this report.

Produces totals of assignments due and received for each calendar week specified, taking assignment extensions into account. Also produces totals of assignment extensions granted, for extensions of different lengths (1 week, 2 weeks and 3 weeks or greater).

Summary can be for a single Assessment Period (ie related grouping of Teaching Periods) or grouped by Owning Org Unit/Unit Mode within a single Assessment Period.

Aggregate totals for all weeks are produced for Assessment Period (high level) or Owning Org Unit/Unit Mode (low level).
