Form And Home Group Update

WorkExpo uses two different ways to group students - By Year Level or by Homegroup.

If you do want to change it you can do so using the UPDATE tab in the Students window.

This feature allows you to update the Year Level or Home Group for several students at once in a batch operation.

From the Main Menu choose Students.
On the top right click the 'Update' tab.
In the section "What do you want to update?" select either Year or Homegroup.
(Note that you can't update both Year and Homegroup at the same time, but you can update each sequentially).
In the section "Which student records are affected?" you have a choice to include Students in a specific Year/HG only or ALL students across the entire Year Level or Homegroup.
Finally, in the Update section, choose which Year Level or Homegroup you wish to update.
In the 'Update To' box enter the new value to replace the one in "Find all Students in".
Click 'Update Now' and WorkExpo will perform the batch operation updating all relevant student records.

When WorkExpo was first released the Year Level was the only way to sort and group students. In later versions a Home Group (HG) field was added. This mean that the Year Level field is best to use if you only require one way to group students as it was part of the original database design since its inception.
