A purple marker labeled "1" points to the "SOTON Default" report, described as displaying "assessment, participants and results in detail." Another purple marker labeled "2" points to the "SOTON Simple, name score and question score only" report, described as a "very simplified report" showing "score per question and the bare minimum of columns."
  • After you have chosen which report to run you will need to specify the exam you wish to report on.
  • Select the Assesment filter and start typing the module code for your exam and the list will start to filter based on your typing. When you see the exam you need select it. It will become highlighted in blue as shown.
  • To run the report select the Apply Filter button.
An input field labeled "Assessment" is highlighted, and below it, a blue tag "BC Test Exam" is visible, indicating a selected assessment. There are also fields for "Filter by attempt," "Group," and "Participant." To the right, an "Apply Filter" button is prominently displayed with a purple border, and a large purple arrow points to it, accompanied by the text "To run the report select the Apply Filter button".
  • The report will now be generated. This can take a while. Three dancing dots will indicate that something is happening
A screenshot of the "Reports & Dashboards" page. The top section shows tabs for "Reports" and "Dashboards" and several action buttons like "Show Header & Footer", "Subscribe", "Email", "Export", "Edit", "Save", "Cancel", and "Close". Below this, there's a "Filters" section with input fields for "Assessment", "Filter by attempt", "Group", and "Participant", along with "Apply Filter" and "Clear Filter" buttons. At the bottom, under the heading "[+] Results Export Report with Item Details", there is a description that reads "This report displays the assessment, participants, and results in detail." Below this text, a small, purple rectangular box contains three blue "dancing dots" or ellipses, indicating that the system is processing or loading.
  • When the report is ready a preview is displayed.
  • To export the report select the Export button and choose Excel or CSV. After a short wait your file will start to download.
The "Export" button has a dropdown menu open, displaying options: "Excel", "PDF", and "CSV". A large purple arrow points from the text "Select which file type you would like" to the open "Export" dropdown menu.

If you chose to export an Excel file your report will be shown on the sheet tab titled “Results with item details”
