Most aspects of an award record can be amended after the record has been created, for example the text description, department etc but the module type can't be changed.
If a teacher has made an award of the wrong module type, for example an honour instead of a merit, but all other aspects of the record are correct then I can't change the award/module type. The only option is to delete the award entirely and create a new one afresh each time. Unfortunately this happens fairly often as teachers make awards for the wrong age category and there's no configuration option to prevent them from doing so (see separate idea submitted on Ideas Portal) - when configuring the Type Properties of a Module Type it would be helpful if the year groups to which this Module Type were applicable could be specified.
We have awards specifically for each of Lower School (years 7-8), Upper School (years 9-11) and Sixth Form (years 12-13) sections but there's currently no means of preventing a teacher from inadvertently awarding a Sixth Form award to a year 7 pupil or a Lower School award to a sixth-former. This results in a lot of retrospective cleanup by MIS admin to delete the misallocated award and to create a new correctly-allocated award in its place.
We have exactly the same problem. I just yesterday had to correct 116 awards that had been given for the wrong age group and had to delete and re-create them all manually. Very frustrating! We would like to have:
1. The ability to edit the Reward Type as this idea suggests
2. The ability to bulk edit awards/sanctions so that we can select several awards in one go and put them under a different Module Type and Category.
3. Some controls in the configuration of Module Types so that they can only be selected by staff for certain year groups to prevent this constant clean-up.
