Auto-Numbering Parameters

Each field on this page is automatically incremented or automatically appears by default throughout the system. Set the last used numbers so that automatic numbering does not create numbers that already exist in the data.

If you want the increments of any of these fields to start at a number other than zero, enter that number on this page before you do anything else in the system.

Note: After you have begun converting or entering data and running processes, you can access this page to determine the last number that was incremented for each of the fields listed, but you should not change the numbers.

Field or Control

Definition

Activity Registry Prefix & Seq

These two values concatenate to form the Activity Registry ID that is created in Add mode on the Activity Registry page.

Last Activity ID Prefix & Seq

These two values concatenate to form the Activity ID, which is used for managing coursework and ultimately for grading that coursework.

Last Link ID Prefix & Seq

These two values concatenate to form the Link ID that is assigned when generating Activity IDs using the Activity Generator or the Activity Manager.

The Link ID is used to associate component and exam activities to multiple parent course roots and is not displayed on any component visible to an end user.

Mark Display Option

Define the decimal setting for Mark fields for the purpose of displaying setup values (for example, displaying the required passing mark to students). The length of the Mark field for storing student marks and calculating overall marks is controlled by the Integer and Decimal Position fields on the Result Scale.

Content Item Prefix

This field identifies the prefix to be used on the Content Item ID that the system generates when a content item is created in the Activity Registry.

Content Item Step

This number defines the default sequence between Content Item IDs. When you create a content item in the Activity Registry, the system assigns a content item ID (prefix + step number sequence). A value of 0010 indicates that content item ID numbers will be sequenced by 10. You can change this value in the Activity Registry from the creation of one content item ID to the next.

Create Initial Result Row

This setting provides three options when determining how to display the initial result row on the student's Individual Activity Manager (IAM) and the result roster.

Create Initial Result – Select this option to insert a result row with an undetermined status automatically for each assessed activity ID assigned to a student. This creates a result row prior to a result being entered or calculated. This row is visible in the IAM and the result roster. This option can be overridden at the individual student IAM level.

Do Not Create Initial Result – Select this option when you want to use the feature at the IAM level but wish to set it at the individual student level instead of establishing it automatically for all students. If not selected, the system will not create a result row until a result is entered or calculated. The value can be overridden at the individual student IAM level.

Do not use this option – Select this option when choosing not to use the feature.

Display Maximum Mark

This setting provides three options when determining how to display the maximum mark on the result roster.

Display Maximum Mark – Select this option to display the maximum mark allowed (as defined on the Result Scale) on the result roster for each student. You can override this default value on both the individual student IAM and the result roster.

Do Not Display Maximum Mark – Select this option when you want to use the feature at the IAM and roster level but don’t want to populate the maximum mark by default to all students on all rosters. You can override this default value at the individual student IAM level.

Do not use this option – Select this option when choosing not to use the feature.
