Workspaces

The PowerSchool Enrollment portal for Returning Student Registration consists of two different workspaces,

the Roster Workspace and the Submission Workspace.

A record progresses through the two workspaces in the form of a status or view.

Roster Workspace:

The roster is the workspace which enables a user to manage student records as they move through the process. Each Roster Workspace is paired with a Submission Workspace where updated roster records returned by families are processed.

Elements of the Roster Workspace Screen :

In the left side of this section, you will be able to select different ways to view, sort, and filter your data. You can view all records with a particular approval status, or sort by pre-defined filters. The task menu contains a list of all actions that can be executed in a View (i.e. printing, tagging, or discarding a submission). To the right of the "Tasks" menu, you will see the total number of records found in a view (or subsequent search), as well as the number of pages. (You can change the number of records per page when you change views.)

It is important to note that you can only edit in the Roster view when a student record is still in the "Notified/Not Started" or "Imported/Added" stage. Once a parent has started to fill out the PowerSchool Enrollment record, changes can not be made by you until that record has been submitted. If a parent needs something changed (ie: a guardian changed/removed), have them go ahead and finish, submit and then you can go back and make the updates.

Submission Workspace:

The Submission Workspace enables an administrative user to view, edit, and process submitted records in preparation for reporting and data delivery.

Elements of the Submission Workspace Screen:

The location/navigation bar allows you to select the subset of records with which you want to work. It contains the View selection, Filter selection, the Tag selection, and the Tasks menu. You are able to select which view (e.g. all records with a particular approval status), select from pre-defined filters, or identify records that have either been tagged or not tagged (e.g. "Polished" or "Printed"). The Tasks menu contains a list of all actions that can be performed against select record(s) in a View (e.g. the printing or the tagging of a record). To the right of the Tasks menu, you will see the total number of records found within the selected criteria, as well as the number of pages of records.
