Grrrr….  The promised land of unified entry systems has taken so long to get here and was so close, to be snatched away at the last moment.

 

Fellow Spurs fans will totally understand the feeling….

Yep.

 

I emailed him this month and that was his response, because the Ao’s are not taking it forward they are at the moment shelving it

We have Brian Mann coming into college next month.

 

Talk is they are shelving the Exams 2 system for a cloud-based module.

 

Will keep you informed of any updates

Hi Joanne,

 

I think that’s because they are moving over to the ‘new’ A2C system – on UNIT-E it’s part of ‘Exams2’ and uses the catalogue and automatic send/ receive systems, but we’ve not been told how this works in practice yet.  With our change in structure here (and lack of dedicated UNIT-E support) I doubt we will get to use it next year either!

Hi

 

I would question that as we were recently told that EDIFACT is the old system that will be fazed out !! This was by Pearsons.

Hi all,

 

I’ve just been informed that only EDIFACT base data/ EDI files generate confirmation files, whereas we used JCQ format for our first attempt.  Maybe next year….

Hi Jane

 

If you go to Tools in the Exams Manager and then EDEXCEL, drop down to import and you should be able to browse for your file(s) When you have found the file you can enter series/year and ok. This should then import your numbers

 

If you have more than one file and they are numbered 001,002 etc then you will have to rename them by removing the number after the . otherwise the system will not recognise them. So start with the unnumbered file and once you have imported the reg numbers you can rename it as something else if you want to keep it. Then do each of the other files in order.

 

I hope this makes sense

Hi

I’m using unit-e. I have the ERN files but not sure how to import them. I would really like the BTEC registrations to appear in our system so that the students can view them for their UCAS applications – rather than me having to look them up individually.

 

Does anyone have any instructions for this?

 

Thanks

 

 

Kind Regards

Mine were sat in the pending folder. I think it had the same file name as the previous year?

Hi Sue,

 

That’s what I expected, but no Edexcel files received since August!  I’ll contact them and find out why.

Hi Paul

 

They should come through A2C, if you go into your inbox and press send/receive files the file should be there for you to import.

Subject: BTEC registration confirmation files

 

Good morning all,

 

We’ve successfully registered our BTEC learners via EDI for the first time, but I’m aware from previous posts that we should receive an EDI file with the BTEC registration numbers so these can be imported into our MIS.  We haven’t received any yet despite the registrations being confirmed on Edexcel on-line last Wednesday.

 

Should these files come automatically through EDI, and how long after the registrations are confirmed?  And can you confirm the email address they would come through on if they are sent via email?  Our email filters tend to stop anything important….

 

Thanks once again for your help.

 

Regards
