  1. Codes & Coding An ACEware Presentation

  2. Today’s Agenda • The Big Picture • Coding Rules • Adding Codes • Preferences • Interest vs Subject Codes • Occupation vs Organization • Source vs Tracking • Code Reporting • Code Cleanup • Mass Coding

  3. What is coding? To help you record data about an individual, course or registration All codes have one purpose

  4. Why? • To help guide your course offerings • Pull only the names you want • Improve marketing ROI • Etc… ad nauseum … Con’t …

  5. Why? To help you better serve your customers, clients, & students

  6. Code for a Purpose! If you have no reason for a code… Don’t Code It!

  7. Coding Rules!* • Technically, any field is a “code” • We mostly think of “Codes” as validated fields (Interest code, tracking code, coordinator, department, account) • Unlimited number of code definitions • Student (& Faculty) Interest & Course Grouping can have unlimited codes • Codes are universal (everyone sees & uses the same codes) • Most codes can be de-activated

  8. The magical (dis)appearing codes… Now you see them……

  9. The magical (dis)appearing codes… Now you don’t……

  10. Preferences Preferences matter! If a field is turned off, no one will be able to use it Remember: Black preferences = may be set per user Blue Preferences = Global

  11. Interest codes & Subject codes are related! • shares the same list of codes • Interest Code = Names • Subject Code = Courses • entering a subject code (0n Course) generates an interest code (on the Name)

  12. If you’re not going to do any other coding . . . Assign a subject code to every course Subject Code

  13. Why? Because any student who enrolls in that class will automatically inherit that interest code

  14. Shucks… It’s better than having a Rich uncle with a bad heart….

  15. Code Design Tips • Create as many codes as you want, but only as many as you’ll use • Use as many available characters that you need for clarity • Consider a major/minor reference system Tip! EDUC+ADM = Education / Administration EDUC+K12 = Education / K through 12 DANC+LNE = Line Dance DANC+BAL = Ballroom Dance DANC+SAL = Salsa Dancing DANC+BEL = Belly Dancing

  16. WTC Is that code Worth The Calories?

  17. Adding Codes (2 ways) Module / Codes

  19. Adding Codes (2 ways) Clicking the plus sign to the left of the field opens the Universal Code Editor NOTE: the ability to add codes-on-the-fly requires a Minimum Power rating of 4

  20. Editing/Changing Codes Pay Attention to Adding v.s. Editing

  21. Editing/Changing Codes Make sure you don’t end Up like this poor kid…

  22. But Chuck, we haven’t been coding! You can add a course subject code “after the fact”. If you assign a class (with existing registrations) a new (“virgin” or a second) code, Student Manager asks if you wish to assign that code to all students in the class.

  23. Coding Tip! You can view a list of names and courses associated with a particular interest code View all names that have the interest code View all courses that have the interest code

  24. Coding Tip! This is just handy as heck….

  25. Coding Tip! You can view a list of names and courses associated with a particular interest code A check indicates a field is active

  26. Turning Data into Info Reports / Statistics / Names / Demographic Summary

  27. Turning Data into Info

  28. Mailing Labels Query = People with Interest Code

  29. Other Codes

  30. Source / Tracking Codes Source code is on the name screen and tells you where you found this person

  31. Source / Tracking Codes Tracking code on the registration screen tells you what marketing piece prompted this person to register in this class

  32. Source / Tracking Codes • Source and Tracking codes share the same list of choices • You may only assign one source code per name and one tracking code per registration (but a different tracking code for every registration) • The purpose of the Source Code is to find out how that name got into your data. • The purpose of the Tracking Code is to find out how the participant heard about that specific course Which gives you some Rock Star Marketing Statistics.

  33. Source / Tracking Codes Give you Rock Star Marketing Data

  34. Occupation & Organization Type of job person holds (ie police officer, nurse)

  35. Occupation & Organization Type of organization where person works (ie: education, manufacturing
