For schools that let the SDS program assign student ID
numbers to new students as they are added to the system, SDS has added the
option to specify an id number range. This will require you to set up a view for
the table Z_Schoollocation including these two fields, first student id and last
student id. You can set the first and last valid id number for each location.
For location 2, you can specify 2000001-2999999, etc.
The
program will check, based on the student location entered for the student, and
look within this range to get the next id number.
If the student
location doesn’t have these fields filled in, it will do as it always has – get
the next highest available number.
