Many hospitals and healthcare organizations that implement the Dual Code learning environment need to migrate learning records from their legacy LMS or in some cases, from spreadsheets that they've manually managed. The learning records can easily be imported into the Dual Code learning environment by uploading a CSV (comma separated value) file.

It's important to understand that the user accounts and courses must exist prior to importing the learning records. If you need to import users or courses, please read Uploading Users and Importing Course Shells first.

Voiding Learning Records

You can void learning records in bulk by adding following the procedure above if you have added a "voided" column with a value of "1" to the your CSV file above. In addition, you can un-void learning records by adding a "voided" column with a value of 0.  More details can be found in the the Creating a CSV File for Importing Learning Records article.

When voiding / unvoiding learning records, ensure you select 'Update the void status only' for the 'Upload mode' on the upload screen. 

While it is possible to generate your file by hand, we recommend that you go to the Learning Records (System Level) report, find the records you want to void, and export them in a CSV file. Then, simply add the "voided" column to that exact same spreadsheet with a value of 1 for each record, and re-upload it as per the steps above.

Please note that if you want to void all learning records for a single course, we recommend following this procedure, which is much easier.

(info) When uploading LRS voids, ensure you select 'Update the void status only' for the 'Upload mode' on the upload screen. 

Sample File

The text file to void learning records must be a CSV file. Here is an example of a simple valid upload file:
