Teacher Recommendations on Admin Side

labella_meghan — Thu, 09 Feb 2023 18:46:21 GMT

Is it possible for admin users to enter teacher recommendations? We have several instances where teachers would like to recommend students who may not currently be on their rosters for a class next year. I was hoping this could be done on the admin side by a counselor or department coordinator. If not is there any type of work around?

Yes. Select student>Request Management>Manage Recommendations>Create New Recommendation.

Thank you so much! I was on the Request Management screen about 20 times, I don't know how I overlooked Manage Recommendations!

@JeffG9 do you know specifically what rights/permissions have to be enabled? I'm able to to this on my end, but the staff member who needs access only sees "Bell Schedule View, List View, Matrix View" under the Scheduling header. I'm trying to update his rights without giving too much access.

@labella_meghan I would start with checking the "Accessible Student Screens" on the user's Security Group.

Hi Jeff,

By any chance do you know if there is a way to export the recommendations?

Thanks in advance,

Valerie

@JeffG9 This is very helpful, thanks! Is it possible to export student course requests via the same method? I'm not sure which table course requests are associated with?

@labella_meghan You will likely want to narrow it down by using the YearID.

Hello,

This is super helpful to do for a single student. Is there a way to do it for a group of students at one time?

From: Q&A: Teacher Recommendations in PowerSchool SIS - PowerSchool Community

" Question

What table are the Course Recommendations in and how can they be accessed?

Answer

Courses Recommendations records are in a virtual table called CoursePreReqRecommend, and it is not available in DDA.

Please note that the option to Import Teacher Recommendations into PowerSchool is not available currently."

Did you happen to ever get a response or find out a way on the Admin side to do this for a group?
