We released Tabula 2020.6.2 on Wednesday 10^th June 2020. In this version:

• In the Marks Management component:
  • Module Managers and Departmental Administrators can now confirm module marks, and the corresponding component marks, as actual marks.
  • Module marks calculated in Tabula are now automatically uploaded to SITS. Any module marks recorded before this release have also been uploaded.
  • You can now record unconfirmed actual component marks via the Tabula API.
  • If you enter a module mark that differs from the calculated module mark, you must now add an explanatory comment.
  • We made it clearer when the weighting for an assessment component is changed to 0% due to variable assessment weighting (VAW). A label of '0%' is now shown next to the mark for the component, and when you hover over this you see an explanatory note.
  • We added the following to each table for entering or previewing marks:
    • The students' names.
    • A link for each student to a popup summary of their profile, which contains a link to the full profile.
    • The ability to sort the tables by clicking on the column headings.
• We also completed further work in preparation for the upcoming graduation benchmark functionality.
