Options export to your MIS



Student options / choices - Options 2020 Released.Exporting from Options to your MIS / Admin System

Once you have completed your Options Pattern in Options you can then export all the details about the Students in each Group into your Admin System (MIS), such as SIMS .net, iSAMS, Arbor, Bromcom, SchoolBase, etc.
