The Upload Bulk List menu will provide you with the option to create a bulk list of students from a CSV file with some of the student details to be used in bulk operations in Paradigm.
If you can’t find the Upload Bulk List option under the Student menu, you can check with your Paradigm Administrator to enable the menu option on your site, contact our Support Team, or try to access this option via this link https://institution.edu.net.au/php/bulk_list_from_csv.php, just change the institution part to your assigned business or institution’s domain name.
There are two possible CSV Source File Formats that are currently acceptable:
Course Enrolment Id
Student Number
Student Firstname
Student Lastname
Program Id
Make sure to use the following field names as headers in your CSV file in the correct order: [Course Enrolment Id, Student Number, Student Firstname, Student Lastname, Program Id].
To generate a CSV file with this format using Report Builder, refer to the workflow below.
Make sure to use the student_number field name as the header in your CSV file.
Choose Student > Upload Bulk List menus on the side. This will open the student bulk upload screen.
If your CSV file has the five required fields specified above, proceed to the first section of the screen named CREATE BULK LIST FROM FILE IMPORT.
(1) Click the Browse button under the file sectioned Bulk List File. Locate and select the CSV file that you’ve prepared based on the above recommendations.
(2) After selecting the file, click the LOAD FILE button. This will populate the list taken from your source file.
(3) With all the lists populated, you can then click the PROCEED WITH BULK LIST to start the bulk operation that you wish to perform in Paradigm.
If your CSV file contains only the student numbers, proceed to the second section of the screen named STUDENT BULK LIST.
(1) Click the Browse button under the file sectioned List of Students. Locate and select the CSV file that you’ve prepared based on the above recommendations.
(2) After selecting the file, click the SELECT STUDENTS BY CSV button. This will populate the list from the data in your source file.
(3) With all the lists populated, you can then click the PROCEED WITH BULK LIST to start the bulk operation that you wish to perform in Paradigm.
Proceed with your bulk operations.
