Aeries Revision Notes 3/16/2018

  • Mass Assign Family Keys - This page now includes a new option to only process Contacts based on "Primary Contact" flag (CON.PC = 'Y') under Contact Processing Options. Enhanced the matching process to better handle multiple matching criteria and reduce the weight given to "Last Name" matching criteria, providing more realistic sibling matches. The Sibling Lookup area was not enabling the "Match to Selected Family Key" button in IE, fixed. Also attempting a second match after selecting a sibling was not refreshing the list of potential siblings, fixed. These changes also affect the Sibling Lookup area on the Student Demographics, Contacts, and Siblings pages. Mass Assign Family Keys
