A mark has two attributes:
1. value: nomark | querymark | numericmark
nomark = .
querymark = ?
numericmark = [-][0-9]+(\.[0-9]+)?
2. flag: optional letter in uppercase
When displaying marks the flag replaces the
decimal point for compactness. Numeric values
must be inclusively within the given range
ie. minimum and maximum unless you opted for soft
limit. Numeric values are stored with the
specified precision.
When entering marks the valid formats are:
a. display format 15L5
b. value
c. value flag
value -
d. + flag
-
E.g.
current -> 15.5L
new 17X5 -> 17.5X
new 17 -> 17L
new 17Q -> 17Q
new 17- -> 17
new +Q -> 15.5Q
new - -> 15.5
Ways to enter marks into sms
Interactively
Under Student Menu, choose Modify Student.
If you have several marks to enter, a faster way is to use Bulk Entry.
From a file - Two types of file are accepted (.upd and .csv).
Format for .upd file
- Example 1: Using StudentID (primary key in sms) as the key First column is student ids, second column is mark field and third column is marks.
3123456|examA|18| 3121212|examA|10| 3123456|examB|15| 3121212|examB|8| 3123456|examC|6| 3121212|examC|3|
- Example 2: Using other fields as the key First column is the key sms field name, second column is the key values.
ass2grp|123|ass2|20| ass2grp|456|ass2|18|
- Example 1: Using StudentID (primary key in sms) as the key First column is student ids, second column is mark field and third column is marks.
Format for .csv file, example:
- First line in the file must be comma separated sms field names.
StudentID,examA,examB,examC 3123456,18,15,6 3121212,10,8,3
- First line in the file must be comma separated sms field names.
The files must be copied to update_recs directory under $SMSDB, examples:
% cp file.csv $SMSDB/update_recs
% cp file.upd $SMSDB/update_recs
- Instruct sms to import the marks
interatively: select Student Menu → Update Student
commandline: smsupdate file.csv or smsupdate file.upd
