aGora Release Notes

Release notes 4.42.580

  • IMPORTANT Assessment results by parts revised and improved. From now, aspects can be linked to specific assessments, that way, the aspect of subject will only be assessed in that assessment. Different assessment sets can be linked to specific aspects to be assessed as well, that way those aspects use a different assessment system from other aspects to be assessed.
  • IMPORTANT Included the possibility to send bill, income and bill instalment's PDF documents to the customers linked to them from each element's list window.
  • NEW FEATURE New queries about assessment results added.
  • NEW FEATURE New statistics about assessment results added.
  • NEW FEATURE New Assessment Result's field (both regular ones and results by parts) : Definitive result. This field indicates if the referred result of assessment is considered to be the actual definitive student's result in this assessment period, and if it must be considered as valid for all effects. The assessment result's documents have been modified to make the pogramm ask before generating them if the user wants to include only the definitive results or all of them.
  • NEW FEATURE New automation to modify the field value "Definitive result" of batch assessment results.
  • NEW FEATURE New automation to clone aspects to be assessed assigned to a subject in other subjects (so all of them will have the same aspects to be assessed).
  • NEW FEATURE Added the possibility to include the assessment results' "Abbreviation" field in the documents of the students reports.
  • NEW FEATURE Posibility to change course groups in contracts which include already invoiced bills. When the course group changes, only those contract bills not invoiced will change to the new group (no changes will be done in the already invoiced bills).

  • NEW FEATURE Added the possibility to add new loans to staff from the Advanced Management of Teachers' window.

  • NEW FEATURE Added the possibility to include a field calculating the import that a teacher gets by hour and another one which calculates the total of acumulated hours that a teacher gets paid from the query lists "Total hours by teacher".
