Past Student Maintenance

Past Student Maintenance - Activity tab

Use the Activity tab to:

View activities created when the student was a future or current student. For example, you can view the open day activities and interview-related activities that occurred.
Add activities for the past student, such as:
- recording tertiary qualifications
- sending invitations for Parents and Friends meetings
- sending invitations for reunion activities
Maintain activities for the past student.

If the activity record is displayed in:

italics, a follow up has been set up for the activity
bold, the follow up is overdue.

Additional uses of the Activity tab

You can use a database query or a stored procedure to list all the people who have the Mail Rqst (request) flag set. For example, this can be used in mail merges with Microsoft Word.

The crspFutureActivityPrint stored procedure has the advantage that in addition to retrieving key activity data it also updates fields to indicate when the letter was printed (Mailed Date) and by whom (Mailed By). See Using stored procedures to retrieve Synergetic data in the Extracting data manual.
