Although this isn't a matter of life and death we feel that it would be a nice touch for Registration Tutors to be able to see who is their class is celebrating a birthday soon, would there be anyway of notifying Reg Tutors of who is having a birthday is the forth coming week when they log on?
Not sure how we would start to approach it, a report of some sort?
Thanks for any help
Not entirely sure how you would display this but you could create a report to show the name, reg group and age.
When creating the report there's a option to filter by "Days to next birthday" and you can specify the number of days. It's under "Basic Details".
Yeah i thought as much really, guess a birthday report with an eye on the filter would have to generated by a member of staff weekly and distrubted some
no big deal really we just thought it may be a nice touch
Within the Sims home page there is an optional panel for My Reports. This displays a list of reports assigned to the user which have been automatically run. If you had a birthday report your users could click on it to see the results. It might take a bit of setting up though - if you wanted to limit the results to those in their reg group you'd probably need to create a report for each tutor.
