How to change student IDs

For Community and Group Editions

Within Operoo the Student ID is generally the Student Number (VSN, NESA, UniSQ, USI, etc) associated with the Student in the School's Student Management database.
For those organisations that are not schools, the Student (Member, Participant, etc) number should be a unique number that allows a quick reference or identification of the record within Operoo.

Administrators can modify existing student IDs by using a spreadsheet import.

1. Open the Modify Student IDs window
  1. Click the Add drop down in the Student Section.
  2. Choose the Modify students IDs option
