Linking Exams to Marksheet Templates

Overview

The Link Exam feature allows you to define the logic of your report card. Whether you need a simple report for a single unit test or a comprehensive annual marksheet combining multiple terms, this module controls the data consolidation.

Navigation Path

  1. Go to: CBSE Exam > Template.

  2. In the Action column of your desired template, click the Action button and choose Link.



1. Selecting a Marksheet Type

In the Link Exam modal, click the Marksheet Type dropdown to select the calculation logic that fits your needs:

Marksheet Type

Best Used For...

All Term

Annual reports combining multiple terms (e.g., Term 1 + Term 2).

Term-Wise

Reports focused on a single specific term.

Single Exam without Term

A standalone report for one specific exam only.

Multiple Exam without Term

Aggregating several exams (like monthly tests) independent of terms.



2. Configuration Procedures

A. All Term (Multi-Term Consolidation)

Use this to display multiple terms side-by-side.

  1. Weightage Allocation: Divide the total weightage between the terms (e.g., Term 1: 50%, Term 2: 50%).

  2. Map Details: Check the boxes for the relevant Terms. For each, select the Exam Name, Grading Scale, and Teacher Remark source you wish to display.

  3. Save: Click [Save].



B. Term-Wise

Use this to generate a report for a single, specific term.

  1. Select Term: Choose the term; all associated exams will appear automatically.

  2. Filter & Weight: Uncheck any exams not needed for this report. Divide the weightage among the remaining exams.

  3. Grading/Remarks: Select the preferred source for grades and remarks and click [Save].



C. Single Exam without Term

Use this for a simplified report of one specific assessment.

  1. Selection: Identify the Term to filter the list, then select the specific Exam Name.

  2. Save: Click [Save].



D. Multiple Exams without Term

Use this to combine several exams without a formal "Term" structure.

  1. Selection: Select multiple exams regardless of their assigned terms.

  2. Weightage: Enter the specific weightage for each selected exam.

  3. Finalize: Choose the Grading/Remarks source and click [Save].



3. Critical Technical Notes

[!IMPORTANT]

Subject Consistency: If linking two or more exams (e.g., Exam 1 and Exam 2), you must ensure the subject lists are identical in both. Inconsistent subjects will cause formatting errors on the printed marksheet.

[!NOTE]

Weightage Logic: Ensure your combined weightage values total 100% to ensure accurate final calculations.


Comparison Summary

  • All Term vs. Term-Wise: "All Term" allows multiple terms at once; "Term-Wise" is restricted to one term at a time.

  • Single vs. Multiple (No Term): "Single" is restricted to one exam; "Multiple" allows you to aggregate several assessments into one report.
