Starters Listing Screen
In this article
This article describes what this screen is for, how to use it and outlines any business rules or important things to note.
Before You Start
This screen is only accessible from the Dashboard in TEAMS Lite; it is not available in TEAMS itself. Also, if you are logged into TEAMS Lite as a ‘trainer/teacher’ you will not have access to the Dashboard and this tile.
To understand how this tile works and what business rules the system uses to show enrolments in this screen, you must first read the article for Starters Tile and the Business Rules in this article.
When you select the link for the number against a course code listed in the Starters Tile the system will load the screen and follows the business rules below:
In the top header section the system will display the date range for ‘This Month’ that the enrolments in the grid have start date for.
The enrolments for the count will be displayed in the grid section of the screen.
If you select to navigate to this screen by selecting the link for the word ‘This Month’, in this scenario Starters, as there were no enrolments with start date for the month, then the system will open the screen.
In the above scenario the grid will be empty and you will need to enter a different date range for the system to search on.
How to use the Screen
This screen is a simple screen that lists all the enrolments with start date within the date range displayed on the screen. From here you can use specific functions to send Email or SMS messages to the students reminding them of their course commencement or create contact logs of notes for the enrolment.
This screen is broken into two separate sections that are:
Search Parameter section
Grid displaying Enrolment information
Each section has very simple fields of information or functionality available as follows:
Search Parameter section
Starters for: this is a date range that the system will load by default when you log into TEAMS Lite. Current month start and end date will load automatically but a user can change the dates to search more records.
For Course: this will display in a read only fashion the Course Code that you selected the number count from the Tile. If you accessed this screen from the Tile by selecting the link for the word ‘This Month’, then you will be given the option to select courses to search on.
Total started/to start: this will display in a read only fashion the total number of enrolments flagged as started out of total number of enrolments for which the start date is in the current month.
Show All Starters: this is a tick box and where it is only displaying for one course code and you have accessed the screen from the link for a number count for a course code, you can then select this tick box and it would load all the enrolments for all the course codes listed in the tile. If you accessed this screen from the Tile by selecting the link for the word ‘This Month’, then this tick box will not be available for you to use.
Grid displaying Enrolment information
This grid will display information relevant to the enrolment. Most of the information is self explanatory, such as Student #, Enrolment #, USI Number, Student Name, DOB, Gender etc. The two columns that need some explanation are:
Compliance Warnings: This column will display Yes or No based on the fact that whether this student’s data does have a compliance related issue or not i.e. any data issue related to AVETMISS, course progress, etc. If Yes is displayed in this column, then it will be a hyperlink which can be used to access the ‘Compliance Warning’ screen. For more information, please check the ‘Compliance Warning’ document for explanation.
Started: This is a tick box which can used to start or un-start a student enrolment in TEAMS
Functionality available
Above the screen in the TEAMS Lite menu bar you will see an Ellipses menu as shown below:
From this menu you can chose to send Emails or SMS messages or Create a Contact Log for one or many enrolments listed in the grid section of this screen. For more information on how to do this please see the following articles:
Send Emails from TEAMS Lite
Send SMS from TEAMS Lite
Create Contact Logs in TEAMS Lite
2. Select the student or enrolment number link and you can navigate to the Student/Enrolment profile screen.
Things To Note
The system does not consider if the enrolment is flagged as started and/or finished, it will show any enrolment where it meets the above business rules for the Starters Tile and this screen.
The system will not consider any cancelled enrolments. If you wanted to consider them you would need to log into TEAMS and generate the Starters Report found under TEAMS > Student > General Reports II menu option.
Where there are no starters for the month for any courses, there would be nothing listed. To access the Starters Listing screen you can select the word ‘This Month’ and it will still take you to the listing screen.
If you cannot see this screen or the Starters Tile in the Dashboard it means you DO NOT have permission to them. You need to speak to your direct manager or your TEAMS Manager regarding this.
