Once you have confirmed that you have a test results file in the appropriate format, you can import the results into Aptify Answer Sheets using the Scantron Import wizard. Follow these steps:
- Create or open a view of the Answers Sheets service.
- Click the Scantron Import Wizard icon to launch the wizard from the Answer Sheets service.
Note that the Scantron Import wizard requires that your system have at least one Member Types record with a Default Type of Persons in order to operate. The Member Types service is in the Customer Management application by default. See the Aptify Customer/Member Management Guide for more information on this service.
- Locate and select the file that contains the test results in the appropriate import format and click Next to continue.
- SeeAbout the Default Scantron File Format for details.
- SeeAbout the Default Scantron File Format for details.
- Enter the Class to which these test results apply in the field provided.
- Select the Exam to which the answer sheets apply from the drop-down list. Only exams listed in the Classes record you entered are available for selection.
- Click Finish to process the scantron results.
- Click OK when prompted that the process is complete.
For each student whose test responses are contained in the import file, Aptify automatically:
- Creates an Answer Sheets record.
- Compares the student's answers against the correct answers specified in the corresponding Exams record.
- Computes the student's test score.
- Updates the student's status (Passed or Failed) based on the passing criteria defined in the Exams record.
If applicable, the wizard creates a Persons record for any student whose test results are contained in the import file but who are not currently in the Aptify database. The default implementation of the Scantron Import wizard matches Persons records based on the Social Security Number (SSN) specified in the import file.
