A guide for school staff.

Possible scenarios: your school uses several distinct progress reports (for example, different settings for elementary and middle school), or you'd like to change how your progress reports look.

Gradelink lets Administrators create customizable Progress Report Profiles. Teachers can choose a profile when they run progress reports, but only Administrators can edit profiles.

1. Create a profile

Go to Administrator Reports > Progress Report and click Edit next to the Report Profile field. The Profile Settings page opens.

Profile Settings page with Profile Name Elementary, a profile list containing Preschool and Watermark Copy, Submit Changes, Delete, Duplicate and Cancel buttons, and layout settings such as Top Margin 1 2 3
The Profile Settings page.
  1. 1Select an existing profile in the list on the right. Its settings appear below.
  2. 2To make a new profile from it, click Duplicate, type a new Profile Name (you can also type a name and click Add).
  3. 3Click Submit Changes, then click Back.

The Profile Settings page also controls layout values such as Top Margin, Teacher Text Comments Title, font sizes, the student mailing-address label and the Front Page Graphic HTML. To change one, click its Edit button, make your change and save it, then click Submit Changes.

2. Set each profile's options

Each profile keeps its own Progress Report Options.
  1. 1Back on the Progress Report page, choose the profile from the Report Profile list.
  2. 2Expand Progress Report Options and check or uncheck options such as Show School Name, Show Percentage Grades, Show GPA and Credits or Show Term Comments. Gradelink shows Settings options saved.

Now you can switch between profiles, and each one prints with its own options.
