Set the roll number prefix for a batch

If you have set a roll number prefix for a course (see Set the roll number prefix for a course), it is applied automatically to all batches under that course. If you don’t want all batches to share the same prefix, you can change it for each batch.

We recommend a unique prefix for each batch so you can easily tell which batch a student belongs to. The prefix can contain up to six alphanumeric characters.

Change a batch prefix

1. At the top of your dashboard, click Menu → Administration → Settings → Manage Student Roll Numbers to open the Manage roll number page.
2. Click View batches to view all batches in a course.
3. Click Edit roll numbers beside a batch. The Edit roll numbers page opens.
4. Click Edit beside the roll number prefix.
5. Change the prefix and click Save. The prefix is updated for all students in the batch.

Tip: You can always return the batch to the course prefix by clicking Reset to course default.
