TABLE OF CONTENTS
Preamble
Students need an individual WebCode to access the webserver and submit subject preferences. WebCodes are generated on the first sync of the Choice form, stored in the etz file, and sent to students when the form is ready for student submission. This document covers the methods for communicating Webcodes to students from the etz file.
- Export WebCodes (for mail-merge)
- Email WebCodes
NOTE There are alternative ways to communicate Webcodes to students from the webserver Choice menu. Refer to Choice: Export student WebCodes Refer to Choice: Communicate to students via Email or Printed letter
Export WebCodes

- Select the desired dataset and year level from the dropdowns.
