Afternoon Team,
Can an IT Wiz help me please… I remember seeing an email about not updating Bader with Cadets classifications because Ulitfail will do it for us? Is this true or am I making it up?
Do I still need to manually update Bader with the classification passed and the date??
Help please.
WO Merlin
the email in question [quote]Ladies and Gentlemen,
It has come to our attention that a number of sqns are manually inputting online assessment results into SMS. Please, you need to stop this practice immediately. Our current system automatically updates this information. Those that try are generating extra work for the BADER team. It will also cause issues in the future when we look at automation with Pearson Edexcel.
If you find your cadets’ data is not correct, then please raise a Service Request on BADER

as i read that you need not manually update
Thanks mate…
In that case my next questions are:
When does it automatically update? Mine is yet too!
What’s Pearson Edexcel?
I dislike the comment " Those that try are generating extra work for the BADER team." as you have created us the volunteer extra work to a) find a suitable venue/ time to get IT b) Order certificates from Serco and c)order badges from WHQ…
If it’s not, then raise a fault through your local Bader POC citing exam details, and cadet in question.
Essentially you don’t need to log individual exam results - Ultilearn talks to SMS and records passes in exams.
As far as I am aware you still need to record them as having completed their Senior classification for example in the summary tab, as this is what triggers an update of their classification in the main cadet view.
I found that snotty All ACO email quite ammusing since we’d been told that the feature didn’t work and we must manually update Bader…but then nobody bothered to tell us that it was finally doing what it was supposed to and we could just let it work.
Just the typical bollocking for doing what we hadn’t been told we’re meant to stop doing. My psychic powers must be a little below par.
Got this from the Help Desk:
“SMS and Ultilearn update indivual exam entries e.g POF exam result will be added to SMS but currently it does not update classifications you can still manually update classifications just not INDIVIDUAL exam results.”
Like I said above!
