OSCAR - PROJECT SETUP: Creating a Project

Back to OSCAR Admin Setup Steps Overview 

A project is a grouping of one or many sections.  By creating a project you can view reports for multiple sections at one time.  This also allows you to simply deactivate a project and that will turn off any scorer access to the sections/items associated with that project. 

How do Projects impact my setup? 

• If a project is active the scoring data will be included on completion report.  
• A project can have multiple "Sections" allowing an admin to turn on/off scoring for many sections at one time
• You can view scoring data by project using the scorer report
• You can use the project filter to quickly access sections and items on the daily and item summary report

Setup Notes

• You must assign a section to a project before you can save a new section
• There is no limit to how many sections can be assigned to a project 
• A project must be active to allow scoring
• A scorer can be in sections that are assigned to multiple projects.  So it is possible to have scorers assigned to multiple projects. 
• You can deactivate/activate a project as many times as you would like.
