Add Additional Terms to Transcript Definitions
Would like to request that additional term fields be added to the Transcript Definitions page for use with other scheduling options.

Please make this come true, Posting transcripts for outside districts are stressful and confusing. We have anther issue with off grade courses; labels between both Middle and High School - anything carried over that is labeled differently at the middle will be overwritten by the High schools labeling. Adding more definitions would help tremendously. Please advise

Yes please I would like to see a whole new set of terms created if possible. Our district did not set them up correctly in the beginning and I'm not able to correct it now. we have some schools on quarters, some on trimesters and some on semesters. since all of the them were set up differently, term 1 is showing at one school as Q1 but as S1 at others, and the really big issues is that term 2 is showing as spring semester at one school but only as Q2 at others or vice versa. so as our kids transfer around our district, their transcript gets really confusing as the terms don't match up. the only way i can see to correct it would be to have a whole new code set for me with 2 digit or 2 character codes and have all my sites set up with ALL of the new codes and stop using the orginal ones. which would also mean that I would need both sets of codes though so the existing transcripts dont' get even more jumbled. right now I just have a complicated mess with no real way to clean it up.
Q1 - quarter 1
Q2 - quarter 2
Q3 - quarter 3
Q4 - quarter 4
S1 - Semester 1
S2- Semester 2
SS - summer school
T1 - trimester 1
T2 - trimester 2
T3 -Trimester 3 -
Please give us more than nine term headings
Our schools need more term headings than than what Aeries allows!! At the very least, if we are entering transcripts from outside schools we need these terms defined even if we don't use them.

I agree. There just aren't enough slots to define all of our necessary terms. Even if none of our schools are on the Quarter system we need to be able to record terms for students who come from schools outside of our district. We need at least 10 definitions, but there are only 9 slots.
Summer
Semester 1 / Fall
Semester 2 / Spring
Quarter 1
Quarter 2
Quarter 3
Quarter 4
Trimester 1
Trimester 2
Trimester 3
