From the perspective of a new prospective student, they'll click the 'Create Prospect' button and choose to either signup via email or text (the latter requiring the TextAlerts module{#fas:warning}). Following through with this, they will receive a link in their inbox with instructions on what to do next.

Hamburger Menu

Every listing page in the Trac System features a hamburger menu with utilities to search for or interact with your list of records. Some of these options are specific to a certain listing/record-type, others are shared. The following list includes definitions for the hamburger menu options available on this listing, and how they can be utilized.

  • List All
This option will show all records on the current listing. Some listings have an additional toggle for only showing "Active" records, such as Students and Registrations, which will still override a "List All" search if checked.


  • Search
This utility will open a pop-up window unique to each Listing it's present on, allowing you to search your records by a number of different fields.


  • Power Search
This option provides a simple but powerful search utility to find the records you need. String together multiple searches, adding or removing results for each. Use Search Symbols to include ranges of data, and Save Searches for later use if needed. The search term 'blankornull' can be used to find all records with a value of nothing ("") or null ().
