Generate results from exam marks
Instead of entering a result score manually, you can generate it by aggregating marks captured across one or more exams.
Before you start
- Role required: Admin, Moderator or Teacher
- Setup needed: Exams must exist for the course with marks captured. Cancelled exams are excluded automatically.
Steps
- Go to Assessment → Results and select Generate from exams.
- Select the course, session and term.
- Select the exams to include. The total available marks across selected exams is shown.
- Select Generate.
A Draft result is created for each enrolled student. The score is calculated as:
score = (student's total marks across selected exams / total available marks) × 100
What happens next
Generated results are created in Draft status. Review them and select Submit when ready for approval.
Notes
- Generating results for a course/term that already has a Draft result will update the existing Draft — it does not create a duplicate.
- Students marked Absent on all selected exams receive a score of 0.
