Note: this instruction applies to the Preferences Manager application (not the Web Preferences Manager).

Prerequisite rules require the use of completed subjects. Completed subjects are used to restrict a student’s subject choices.

In this case, where the student group is for Year 10 next year, the subjects the students are currently studying in Year 9 would need to be imported.

Completed subjects are initially imported to the Master List in the Management Portal by the Global Administrator, School Administrator or Timetabler.

They can then be added to a student group when it is created or imported into an existing one.

On the Task Tree, select: [4] Subjects.
