Displayed Gender
Product Path: System Settings > System Preferences
Districts can determine the gender information displayed throughout Infinite Campus. A set of tools and tool rights determines what appears and to whom. A new tool right, View Gender, is being added that allows districts to restrict access to Gender information. All users in any user group will automatically have this right applied to them in the .2627 release, ensuring current functionality is not changed for users. A new tool rights user group is being added to all districts that includes all users. Only the View Gender tool right is being assigned to users in this group. This new user group ensures that any users not in a user group can still access gender information, unless the district decides to restrict it.
Previous solutions set for South Dakota and North Carolina are not affected.
