Last month we introduced Application Management which is a new feature designed to streamline your Education Sales Management processes. We are now working on additional new online sales features that will be released later this year.
While these larger Sales projects are progressing, we are forever updating existing features. July saw a number of enhancements across the product particularly within Opportunities, Reports, Elearning and Grades.
We love hearing your feedback so please let us know your thoughts on the latest updates.

Minor Updates
Learner RefInternal
The auto provisioning RefInternal field will now only be numeric after the 3-letter customer code. This removes confusion around I, 1, O and 0 and also ensures that the field is more predictable due to being an incrementing number moving forward.
All old RefInternal values will be preserved and this will only apply to new Learner records. The numbers will be configured to start at XXX2000001 and increment from there.
Report Section Enhancements
We are in the process of making a number of changes to the reports section to make it easier to obtain desired reporting outcomes. Feedback from G2 reviews is that while the reporting section is powerful and provides a lot of benefit, it can be hard to find the right report.
We have made the following changes:
- Report list shows 20 records per page
- Report page size increased from 10 to 20
- More easily view fields for a selected report
- More easily search and find fields in a filter
We are also in the process of reviewing and updating each report with:
- New report category, name and details for consistency
- Removing old and unused reports
- Reviewing all field naming to be consistent and in line with Wisenet pages eg.
- Client First Name to Learner First Name
- COR Start Date to Course Enrolment Start Date
This report review process takes time and we will be working through the list starting with the most used reports. Report numbers will not be changing and we hope that these changes will make it easier to find and run reports. If you have any troubles finding or running a report then please log a support.

Completion Pathways
New fields Completion Pathway and Completion Pathway Notes have been added to the Course Enrolment section. This allows a provider to track how a Learner progresses.
It is a custom dropdown allowing each provider to choose their own values. We have collated a set of recommended values.
Grade Point
A new field Grade Point has been added to the Unit Enrolment section. This allows a specific Grade Point value to be entered against a Unit Enrolment. This has also been added in the Auto Grade feature allowing it to be set as part of the Elearning Grade sync.
While adding Grade Point we reviewed and enhanced the Unit Enrolment field layout grouping.
Grade Point can also be used in uReports.
Inactive Workplace Contacts and Agent Contacts
It is now possible to set a Workplace Contact and Agent Contact to Inactive. This will allow these Contacts to still be linked with a Learners Workplace or Agent for history purposes. But Inactive Contacts will not be able to be added to new relationships.
