Troubleshooting - Fully Complete but Duplicates Found

When Centre Users have completed their full set of Grades and Rank, they must validate the Grades and Ranks to locate any Duplicates and resolve them before Submission.

To resolve Grade/Rank Duplicates, follow these steps:

Note: The drop-down lists in the Allocations section relate to those that are applicable to you.

On the Grade Entry screen, in the Allocations section, select the relevant Qualification from the Qualifications drop-down list. This selection filters your available Subjects,
Select the relevant Subject from the Subject drop-down list.

Centre User - Subjects

The Grade Entry screen refreshes and displays the relevant Candidates based on your selection. The pagination of the screen enables the first 50 rows to be edited, but there is the capability to view all of the rows.

Note: It is important to mention that when the Grading column is ordered, 'A' is listed above 'A*' as strict alphanumeric ordering is enforced. Also, 'U' is listed below the 'No Submission' option.

Click the Validate button to check for Duplicate Grade/Rank combinations across the Awards for a Subject, because Duplicate Ranks are not permitted across the same Grade for a Subject. A brief message is displayed which itemises the issues for investigation. Furthermore, the validation results are displayed at the bottom of the screen and display the following information: X/Y Graded and X/Y Ranked and Z Duplicates.

Centre User - Graded Duplicates

With the number of Duplicates in mind, investigate the Grade and Rank columns and locate the Duplicates. To aid in the search, the affected rows are shaded red.

Note: To isolate gaps and Duplicates, sort by Grade and then by Rank, which displays the Grade and Rank order. Also you can filter by Grade, and then sort by Rank to view the Duplicates within a Rank.

Amend to ensure that the information contains no Duplicate Grade/Rank combinations across the Awards for a Subject, because Duplicate Ranks are not permitted across the same Grade for a Subject.

See the Duplication examples for guidance section.

The following screenshot is based on the above screenshot and displays the issues in a resolved state.
