Tabula 2019.10.3 released

We released Tabula 2019.10.3 on Wednesday 16 October 2019. In this version:

  • Excel downloads of exam grids now include comments to explain the reasons for any missing data. These comments mirror the tooltips that appear in Tabula when you hover your mouse over an 'X' on an exam grid.
  • Penalties of 5 marks per working day for late submissions by postgraduates are now suggested. This is the same as for undergraduates, and reflects the latest Education Policy and Quality late submission policy. Suggested penalties are shown when you adjust marks and choose 'Late submission penalty' as the reason. For postgraduates who registered before 1 August 2019, the suggested penalty is still 3 marks per working day.
  • We've improved the results displayed when you enter room names in the location box for small group events.
  • When you upload monitoring point attendance by CSV file, we have restored the messages that inform you of any errors in your file. Note that you can only use this method for authorised absences if an attendance note is already in place.
