Awards setup

Where a school gives a standard award to students, you can set up the award in the Chancery SMS system. When the award is granted, you can record it and print an award certificate for presentation. For the award certificate, Chancery SMS provides a standard layout; you can customize the text of the award to correspond to the granting criteria.

In addition to using awards, you can use customized school reports to create award templates. You can then put any field onto a custom award template. For more information about creating customized school reports, see the Chancery SMS Report Writer Guide [see Addenda >>].
