School Years / Age Group graduation #10

Open tbar0970 opened 9 years ago

Has come up many times.

Kids have exact ages / birth dates and school years and broader age brackets (infants / upper primary etc).

The desire is to automatically put them into age brackets based on DOB AND/OR record school year rather than broader age bracket, and be able to bulk graduate year5 -> 6 etc.

This could be provided for by creating 'Actions' rather like you create reports - a query select, but this time with a set of update actions to choose from to do the update and a schedule regularity (annually / monthly / weekly). The former would re-use a lot of functionality already there. The latter part (scheduling) is more difficult because installers would have to set up CRON jobs, unless the regularity wasn't precise - i.e. an Admin interface button to 'run updates'. Anyway, just a suggestion.
