To view a Student record, you must first go to Student -> Find Student in the Modules menu on the left hand side of Databridge.
Finding a Student
When you are on the Find Student screen, this is split into 3 columns. The first column gives you a list of filters by which to search on, the second column displays the list of Students found, and the last column is empty until you select a Student.
You can select from the dropdowns in the first column and the list of Students found will change immediately.

Tip You can filter by age with three choices - under 16, 16-19 and over 19
Information This screen remembers which filters you selected. You may need to change them back on a subsequent visit.
You can also type into the textbox above the list of Students where it says Search list, as you type this will also filter the list so you can simply type in a persons name to locate them.
Viewing a Student
When you click on a Student, the third column on the page will display some quick details for the Student such as Contacts, Important Information and Consents. This is to provide information that anyone can see without having access to the Student record itself.
To view the Student record, simply click on the View Student option.

Default Viewing Options
The summary view of the Student when you click on their name is simply the default setup. If you click on your name in the top right and click on My Defaults, you can change this.

In the View Student Option dropdown, you can select from the following:
Option | Description |
Default | Display the summary view. |
Direct to Student | Instead of display the summary view, go straight to the Student record. |
Direct to Student (new window) | The same as the previous option with the exception it will open the record in a new tab. This allows you to keep the Find Student screen open. |
If you change this option, remember to click Save Changes at the bottom for it to take effect.

File Options
At the top of the list of filters, you'll see a File button. Clicking on this will bring up a dropdown of options:
