The Student Number Format tool allows user to dictate how Local Student Numbers are auto-generated for students. Local Student Number values are automatically generated when an enrollment is created for a student with existing Local Student Number value. The Local Student Number is stored on a student's Demographics tab and also appears on the Infinite Campus header and Summary tab.
To manually generate a randomly created Local Student Number for a specific student, mark the Generate Number checkbox on their Demographics tab.
This preference is utilized in the following areas:
- Census > People > Demographics > Local Student Number
- Census > People > Demographics > Generate Number
- Census > Add Person > Local Student Number
- Census > Add Person > Generate Number
- Student Information > General > Summary > Student Number
- Student Information > General > Enrollments
