At the beginning of each school year you must rollover your students into their new Academic Levels (Year Level), set the new Academic Period, and add the newest Cohort before importing any students or form classes. This process can be run as the last process of the outgoing year, or the first process of the incoming new year.
Note: This process will not update your Form classes. Form classes must be updated after you have completed the rollover and updated Academic Periods, by importing a patron file containing Form classes. Click here to see the Form class update solution after completion of the rollover.
