Data Package: Online Testing or DataPlus
Role: Account Holder, Super Admin, Administrator, Teacher, or Digital Resource & Reporting Access
You can specify criteria and run reports on the Create a Report page.
Report options and availability vary according to the following:
- Your role and location. You can create and view reports only for your own location level and those below you.
- The tests that have been administered to students, entered in the database, and marked as completed.
- The options you select as you move down the list of criteria. As you select options, subsequent fields with dependencies on those options may change. (Common fields that produce these changes include REPORT TYPE, LEVEL OF ANALYSIS, and DISPLAY OPTIONS.) When this happens, the page reloads to display new or adjusted fields.
Note: If you are transitioning from Interactive Results Manager (IRM) to DataManager (DM), some menu labels and report names have changed.
