File types are used throughout Synergetic to:
- distinguish between academic and non-academic classes; and to
- divide the non-academic areas into meaningful categories.
The file type can then be used to easily select records of students who are undertaking a certain type of class. For example:e
- music classes
- sport
- and so on.
For example, if you want to select the music students in Crystal Reports, you choose a FileType equal to M (for music).
Note: You can configure non-academic file types in whatever way suits your organisation's structure. For example, you can change the C file type to Co-curricular activities, or Cadets.
The following table lists some sample file types:
File Type | Description |
A | Academic |
C | Community Service |
M | Music |
O | Outdoor |
S | Summer Sport |
W | Winter Sport |
Z | Other |
Note: File types are maintained in the luFileType lookup table. See luFileType lookup table in the System maintenance manual.
