Creating calculated properties in order to rank applicants by your entry/admissions criteria.

Calculated Properties: By configuring this feature, you can establish a ranking system that aligns each application with your specific admissions criteria. This ensures a tailored and efficient evaluation process for all incoming applications.

To get started, go to Settings > Properties > Properties.

To proceed with creating calculated properties, click the '+New Calculated Property' button to begin.

Creating Condition Triggers: Once the calculated property has been created, it will take you to the page where you can set up condition triggers within the Calculation Property.

- Order of Calculation: This column assigns the value associated with the first filter (condition) that is True. If no filters find a match, the default value is assigned.

- IF Condition: The 'If' column becomes clearer when populated. It essentially represents the condition used to determine when to assign values. Reading the columns from left to right, it will be 'If Then assign value

- Assign Value: This field depends on the criteria you would like to set for each condition.

After clicking the button, you will be presented with the option to set the filter for the condition itself.

In this example, we will be using 'Gender,' as shown below.

After you have successfully configured the conditions and assigned values, simply click on 'Calculated Properties' to return to the main page area.

You'll find a list of your calculated Property names, their respective Codes, an option to toggle to Show on Student Profile, and the Value Updated for Students column.

Note: The ''Show on the Student Profile'' action button will make the calculated properties visible on the student profile. It should appear here once activated:

Value Updated for Students: This column indicates that when the icon is green, students have the specific calculated property assigned to them based on the latest values in their profiles. However, if you modify the values within the calculated property, the icon will turn red. This signifies that changes have been made, and the profiles are no longer up to date.

To update the profiles and bring them up to date, you can utilize the last column, which is named 'Bulk Update Assigned Value.' It provides you with three options:

• Calculated and Overwrite
• Calculated but Do Not Overwrite
• Fixed Value
