How do I setup my class Rosters? (Without Convey:Enterprise?
Convey: Insight uses a CSV import engine. You need to export your class rosters to a
CSV file. (Typically created in Excel then saved as a .csv file) A .csv file is a Commaseparated Values file format. Most roster and student management program will export.csv files into a format that can be used in Excel . Excel can also be used to convertlists in text format (from a Word file, for example, into a .csv file)
This means in most cases where a roster exists, you will not have to type in thenames.
