The new
"Classes" page has been removed from Aeries due to issues found as
districts began using the system. Since its release last week, many of these
issues have been resolved, but enough still remain that it is best at this
point to remove this functionality until we are more confident in the
stability of this great new feature of Aeries.
Gradebook
The Mass Add Gradebooks feature is now available for
traditional elementary schools to create multiple gradebooks at once. This
option is on the Gradebook Dashboard page.
Gradebook
Assignment Status (GBS.ST) codes can now be customized by each district by
editing the values in the COD table. The list can be edited from the Update
Code Table page by a system administrator.
Scores By Assignment
The Overall Grade and Final Mark fields now display on
this page. These fields will honor the Gradebook options to "Display the
Final Mark" and "Hide Overall Grade".
Gradebook Standard Selector
The option
to view "Report Card Standards" is now available on the "Type
of Standards" dropdown list. If the gradebook is associated with a
course, the standards will be from the Standards-Based Courses table (SBR),
otherwise they will be from Standards-Based Setup table (SBE).
CAASPP & CAA Reports
The "Number Possible" values for these test
have been loaded and will now be available on these reports.
Import Test Results
The AP
2016-17 test results file, .csv format (AP 2017 layout) can now be imported.
Also, a report to print unmatched students has been added. This report is
only available through this page for the AP 2016-17 tests and the CAASPP Test
Results.
Alert Thresholds
Once a parent has received an alert, that parent will
not receive another similar alert for at least 90 minutes. This will prevent
excessive alerts during times when a teacher is continuously updating their
Gradebook. Also, turning off alerts for a school would not stop alerts that
parents had already configured, fixed.
Military Survey Audit
This page
is no longer available at the district level. It was only designed to be used
at the school level.
Scheduling Mass Change
Section Numbers
This page now supports all grades, even Kinder and TK.
Avery 5160 Asset Barcode Labels report
This
report now has a new set of options to re-print one or multiple barcodes by
choosing the Asset Number and the range of items. Also, the barcode number
was added below the vertical lines that represent the barcode.
Google Integration
The frequency of calls to the Google API have been
reduced to improve system performance.
Copy Scheduling Results to MST/SEC
Elementary
with Master Schedule schools now do not see the Attendance Updating option if
Attendance has not yet been initialized. Also, after attendance is
initialized for these schools, a change to the "Leave Date" will
change the "Enter Date" to be the next school day. Also, changes to
these dates were not being honored when the process was run, fixed. Also,
this process now requires a TRM table in the current school before it can be
run. Also, the Attendance Period for the school is now displayed for
Elementary with Master Schedule schools.
Enrollment History
When editing ENR fields, text beyond the maximum field
length can now no longer be entered. Also, the "Edit" buttons were
still visible for all records when editing or adding a record, fixed.
Student Transfer Processes (Current and Multi-Year
Processes and Online Enrollment Import)
These
processes have been adjusted to clear the "Parent Email Address"
(STU.PEM) field if no other students in the school have a value in this
field. STU.PEM is not visible in schools where no students have it populated.
Contact Email Address is the recommended location for parent email address.
Student Header
The label "Parent Email" on the Contacts tab
will now not display if the STU.PEM field is not used in a school.
Account Emulation
When
emulating a user the logged in school had the potential of changing, now the
user will be returned to the originally logged in school once emulation is
ended. Also, when emulating a parent and returning to the original user,
Aeries Communications would stay logged in as the emulated user, fixed.
Imports and Exports
sFTP request timeouts have been extended to 90 seconds
to accommodate communication over networks which have higher amounts of
latency.
Online Help
Aeries
continues to migrate online help to support.aeries.com instead of
help.aeries.com and add additional context-sensitive help to various pages
throughout the system.
Initialize ATT/CAR
This page has been visually improved although no
changes to functionality were made.
Scheduling Setup
This page
has been visually improved although no changes to functionality were made.
Siblings
This page has had some visual adjustments made to it.
Terms
This page
would give an error when attempting to add a previously delete-tagged TRM
record, fixed.
API Security
After using the new "beta" option to
"Add New Student Data Sharing LEA", the LEAs added would be
displayed as being "Elite Partners", fixed.
Military Survey Audit
No records
would display when orphaned records existed, fixed.
Residence Survey Audit
No records would display when orphaned records existed,
fixed.
Student Summons Call Slip report
This
report would generate an "invalid format" error when entering a
time and running the report, fixed.
School Options
When editing Cities for the DecisionInsite for Street
Validation, some valid city names were not being accepted, fixed.
