L1 Sharing: Global Top Tab
Tuesday April 29, 2025 1:00pm - 2:00pm PDT
President Ballroom C
Database applications try their best to present information in broadly useful ways, but there will always be challenging questions.
Consider how one would tackle these:
  • Which authorised parents/guardians don’t have family portal access enabled?
  • Which students graduated with a Dual Dogwood in 2024?
  • Which students took Workplace Math in 2023?
All of these are simple tasks at the Global top tab, which is a treasure trove of useful information. It is also a window into the underlying structure of how MyEd/Aspen is built.
