XSUIM Version 2.2

June 2009

 

Fixes a bug in XWEB where the indexes of each grade were not being properly sorted into alphabetic order.

XSUIM Version 2.1 ERN

Guidelines document

This is the version which should be used after March 17 2008. It is designed to handle the ERN value gathered from Oasis, or Sentral. Calculation of the userid is not performed. The ERN value is used instead.

The guidelines document contains important information about this version of XSUIM and how to upate any existing installation.

Needs Filemaker Pro version 7, 8 or 9.

 

XSUIM Version 2.07

The traditional XSUIM which uses the Oasis generated Student Code as the basis for calculating a Userid for OD.

After ERN this and earlier versions of XSUIM may not produce unique userid's. Recommend that you change to version 2.1 above.

Another issue you may face with an existing XSUIM installation is a duplication of users after an update from Oasis. The reason for this is that ERN replaces the Oasis Student Code with a new value. XSUIM interprets this as a new student.

Needs Filemaker Pro version 7 or later

 

FileMaker Pro

XSUIM needs FileMaker Pro to operate. A 30 day trial version can be downloaded from the Filemaker site.

You can use this to evaluate XSUIM

 

XSUIM Version 3

Is not yet a product.

Intended to be a more open version and not tied to one data source.

ie you prepare a unique username and userid and other required data for each student in a table and XSUIM completes the remainder.

i will pursue this if I get enough indication that there is a need for a product like this.
