Adding Data to 3sysACADEMIC

Developers at WCBS have created a number of simple ways to add, update and remove data from 3sysACADEMIC which are largely standardised across the software. This means that once you have mastered the basic principles, you will be able to complete a wide range of tasks in any of the modules.

Note: In 3sysACADEMIC Online Help, click Example image of a drop text icon, Example image of a drop text icon, More Details... or on images to expand them and see more detail. For more information, see 3sysACADEMIC Online Help Tips and Tricks.

To add information to records in 3sysACADEMIC, you need to complete the fields on the relevant screens. Ways to do this include drop lists, calendar popups, auto complete and search dialogs. For an overview of how to use these, see Completing Fields.

Grids appear throughout 3sysACADEMIC. In simple terms, they are tables used to present, add or extract information from the system. For more information, see About Grids and Dashboards.

To attach pupils to records using 3sysACADEMIC, you need to select them from drop lists or search for them using special search dialogs. For details about how to do this, see Searching for Pupils.

To attach staff to records using 3sysACADEMIC, you need to search for them using special search dialogs. For details, see Searching for Staff.

Records can be listed over several pages. You use the Page icons to change the number of records shown per page and to navigate between them:

  • Click White arrow pointing left in an orange square or White arrow pointing right in an orange square or on the numbers underneath the grid on the left-hand side to move between pages.

  • Click Two white arrows pointing left in an orange square to go to the first page or Two white arrows pointing right in an orange square to go to the last page.
