The long awaited update!

Many of you have been asking for new features, sending suggestions, complaints (not too many luckily) and any kind of change requests for Accudemia. I’m glad to announce that finally, after 3 long months, we have updated the site with a bunch of changes on it.

The list of changes is long, but here are the things I like more:

Site Speed:

The performance of the site was greatly improved, some parts of the site were redone from scratch with performance in mind. Also the iAccu performance was improved, the sync is now so much faster, for real.

Data Export:

You can find a new option in the left menu to export your data. By doing so, you get the raw information, so you can analyze it by using Excel or any other tool you like.

Fixed Walk-Ins:

Tired of selecting the same information every time? Well, now you can “fix” the data that won’t change between different walk-ins, so students only have to select the information that is important for them.

More options directly from the Intake System screen:

You can now double-click over a student that is signed-in, and a screen will pop up where you can edit the session comments, or sign him out. That way you don’t have to be switching from page to page.

Profile Pictures!

We also have added support for uploading profile pics. Don’t remember who that student is? Take a look at the picture to remember.

We will be extending this to other parts of the system, so you can always have a picture next to the name. Just start uploading your profile pictures!

What else? You will find a bunch of new settings for customizing account restrictions, appointments, 14 new traffic analysis reports, lots of bug fixes and enhancements, among other things.

Did you know? You can create groups from filtered reports

On reports: when you create and filter a report it "automatically" creates a User Group. After creating a report that you need, where you have filtered all of the students with " MATH "(Subject Areas), selected only the " Freshman "(Student Demographic) who have visited the center for " Tutoring "(Service Type) more than 3 times on a Visitor History report you decide you want to save that group and call them " Freshman needing Math Help ." You can do this after you run that report by visiting the User Accounts > Groups section on the left-side navigation panel. Once there simply click on the Report Generated Groups tab, then click on the report you just ran, and click edit . At this point you can name the group and hit save changes and the group will now be available for you to use as a group filter in future reports.

Tech Tip: Calculate Tutor Payroll

Today a customer came with a good question. He was trying to calculate tutor payments from a student visit report. However, if you export the report in Excel format, you will get the Period in HH:MM format: To calculate the total hours and the total payment amount, you will need to use the TIMEVALUE Excel formula . For example, the following will return the total hours worked: =TIMEVALUE([Cell])*24 Then you can, round that number to have only 2 decimals: =ROUND(TIMEVALUE([Cell]) * 24, 2) For example, if the tutor has worked for 1 hour and 30 minutes (that would be displayed as 1:30), you will get 1.50 hours using the formula above. Or you can multiply the total hours worked (not rounded) by the hourly pay rate and then round the final amount. If it were $20, then the final formula would be: =ROUND(TIMEVALUE([Cell]) * 24 * 20, 2) Being [Cell] the reference to the cell where the period is (eg, 01:30), and 20 is the hourly pay rate.
