Transcript Post Wizard

Tool Search: Transcript Post

The Transcript Post Wizard locates scores students receive at the end of a course—a semester grade, for example—and posts them to the student's Transcript. This tool only allows users to select calendars to which they are assigned modify rights.

Virginia districts should follow the instructions available in the Transcript Post (Virginia) article.

Transcript Post Editor

The following table describes the available options on the Transcript Post Wizard.

Option Description
Select Calendars Indicates from which calendar student grades are posted to the transcript. A calendar must also be selected when generating the report. Calendars can be selected by active year, school name, or year.
Select Credit Groups Indicates which scores are posted. Credit groups define how credits earned by students are counted on the transcript. Select a single child group, or use Ctrl-click, Shift-click, or highlight and scroll to select to select multiple groups.  
Select Desired Post Option There are three options available for posting scores to the student's Transcript:
  • Post Courses, Scores, & Credits by Term - This option posts course information, including the student's score in that course and the credit amount the student received for successfully completing the course for the selected term(s). You can select All Terms or the specific term(s) relevant to the situation.
  • Post One-Time Grading Tasks/Standards - This option posts course information, scores, and credits received for grading tasks and standards that are scored once and are not associated with a specific term. THIS IS THE ONLY OPTION THAT POSTS ONE-TIME GRADING TASKS AND STANDARDS.
  • Post Courses and Scores Only for All Terms - This option posts the course information for which the student received the score and the score the student received in those courses for all terms. Credit information is not posted but can be added manually to the Transcript record as needed or use the Post Courses, Scores, & Credits by Term option.
Post Score Comments to Transcript

When marked, any comments that were entered by the teacher or other staff when the score was saved are also posted to the transcript.

Student Selection

Indicates the students for whom transcript records are posted. Students can be selected by Grade level,  Ad hoc Filter, or Course/Section.

  • Select Grades - Only students in the selected grade levels where scores are available will  have transcript records posted when the students meet the requirements of the other selections (enrollment in the selected calendar, scores in the selected credit groups, etc.)
  • Ad hoc Filter - Only students included in the Ad hoc Filter where scores are available for those students will have transcript records posted when the students meet the requirements of the other selections made (enrollment in the selected calendar, scores in the selected credit groups, etc.). Only student-type filters are available for selection (Census/Staff and Course Data Type Filters are not included in the dropdown). 
  • Select Course/Section - Only students enrolled in the selected Courses/Sections where scores are available will have transcript records posted when they meet the requirements of the other selections (enrollment in the selected calendar, scores in the selected credit groups, etc.). Multiple courses/sections can be selected if desired. The list of courses/sections can be selected by either course number or course name (choose the appropriate radio button).

The Ad hoc Filter and Course/Section options are unavailable when multiple calendars are selected.
