The Button-driven menu system, pull down menus and scrolling lists for selection and look-up make the system easy to use and easy to learn. There is open access to data, capability to export data to spreadsheets, word processors and other packages. The data entry sections where possible, use combo boxes to allow selection rather than entry of data. This increases data entry speed, reduces data entry errors and facilitates querying of the database and reporting. The inquiry section allows sorting of information by different Parameters (fields) just by the touch of a button.

PROMOTIONS/RESULTS
Recording the marks and calculating of each student’s marks to find their performance is a back breaking job that most teachers shudder at the thought of it. Topaz School Manager has been designed with speedy-entry and simplicity; the Promotions/Results module will make the entry of marks an easy job. The system allows entries of marks are entered for student’s homework/projects, class assignments, class tests and exam results. It then processes these marks and finds the needed percentages. It even sorts out the students according to their total score and assigns them positions so the teacher does not go through this trouble again.
BILLING
The processing and payment of school fees is very important to every school and that is the reason the Topaz School Manager places keen interest in establishing this goal. This module allows for the processing of students bill, the payment of fees, creating credit memos and also setting students balances. Bills are processed based on the class and also on each student’s requirements. For example a school that runs a school bus will have some students using this bus and thus these students will have additional bills to their fees. Also students can be allowed to make advanced payments of their fees, which will be deducted from their fees when their bills are ready. Finding how much a student owes the school is no more a problem because there no need to search through books; this has been made easier with this module.
