1 Query Query Deliver Quick Query Use the Query Tool to isolate records that meet specific criteria. Some of the queries that you create in Slate will be used continually as part of your business processes, while others may be used just once to accomplish a non-recurring task. Key Concepts In this section: Quick Queries Exports and Filters The Slate Template Library Destinations Saved Queries Use a Quick Query when you will not need to save the query for later use. 1. Navigate to the Queries & Reports module. (Click ) 2. Click Quick Query. 3. Pick the Population for your query: Population Explanation Looking for Inquiries? You may further isolate records for any query type by adding filters. Adding a Status filter to your query allows you to find records with a specific status (e.g., Inquiry). You will learn more about adding filters in this section. Prospects All student records, excluding records with the Opt Out tag. Each student record will appear as a single row in the query results. Prospects (including opt-outs) All student records, including records with the Opt Out tag. Each student record will appear as a single row in the query results. You will learn more about the Opt Out tag later in Phase I. Applications All applications will appear as a single row in the query results. Student records that have multiple applications will appear multiple times in the query results, with each row representing a distinct application for that record. Organizations Organization Contacts Forms and Events Custom SQL All organization records in the Organizations dataset. Each organization record will appear as a single row in the query results. All organization contact records in the Organization Contacts dataset. Each contact will appear as a single row in the query results. All registrants who have filled out a particular form (e.g., Request Information) or signed up for a particular event (e.g., a campus visit). This type of query will be used for advanced queries. Additionally, you may run queries on your forms and events directly from the form, event, or template management screen. Other Populations You may optionally add additional query populations using the Slate Template Library. You will learn more about the Slate Template Library later in this section. While the population that you select will begin to define what you will see in your query results, you will use filters to more precisely limit the records that will appear in the query results. 89

2 Query Overview Use a Quick Query with a Prospects population to review the basic components of the Query Tool: Quick Query User Population John Smith Prospects Run Query Preview Results Display SQL Save Copy Query Details Once your exports and filters are added, click the Run Query button to display your query results. Preview Results will display the query results prior to running the query. View the SQL generated from adding exports and filters by clicking the Display SQL button. Save Copy allows you to save your quick query for future use. Exports + ABC Export Custom SQL Literal Add Exports Click the Export button to begin defining the data that will appear when you run the query. Click the Custom SQL button to add a custom export column. (This option is used for more complex data exports.) Click the Literal button to add a static value as an export column. Every row in the query results will have the same static value in this column. Filters Filter Custom SQL OR Add Filters Click the Filter button to restrict the population of records to be exported. You may add as many filters as you need. NOT ( Click the Custom SQL button to add a custom SQL filter. (This option is used for more complex data exports.) ) When necessary, add OR and NOT logic operators. If you do this, remember to use parentheses when necessary! Sort Keys Sort Key Add a Sort Key You may optionally sort your query results based on one or more data points. If a sort key is not added, queries using a Prospects or Applications population are sorted by last name, first name. 90

3 How to Add Exports How to Add Exports The Basics Click the Export button to define the data that will appear when your query runs: Insert Query Part Search Groups Pinned Exports Local Exports Slate Template Library Local Exports Use the Search function to quickly find a desired export. Click the Local Exports check box to display all exports in your instance. Click the Slate Template Library check box to display all available exports within Slate Template Library, even if you have not added it to your instance. Select All Preferred Ref First Middle Prefix Last See Pinning instructions later in this section. Suffix Biographical Alias Click the Exports that you would like to add to your query. Select All Birthdate Age Sex Hispanic ic Race Citizenship izensh ip Statustus Primary Citizen... Click Select All to select all the exports within a group. After clicking Save, the selected export boxes will be added to your query. To add additional exports, drag the Export button to the location where the exports should be added. Alternatively, click the Export button to have exports added to the end of the query. You may reorder your exports by clicking and dragging the export boxes at any time. Last Ref Entry Term x Hover over any export box. Click the icon or double click to edit the export configuration. Click the x icon to delete an export. Make an export or Inactive. (Inactive exports will not be included in your results.) You may further configure an export by clicking the clicking on an export box: icon or double Alter the display name (the column name) of the export. Edit Part Status Source Type Source Key Entry Term Local Export Entry Term Set the width of an export s column for fixed-width exports or to truncate a value to keep it under a certain length. If your export is a custom field, you may define the exact value to export. (See upcoming page.) Width Export Export 2 You may configure an appropriate format type. See next page for more instruction about format types. Format Type Null Provide a value to appear when there is no value for a record. 91

4 What are my Format Type options and why should I use them? Selecting a Format Type allows you to precisely define the format mask you would like to use (i.e., the way it displays) for values exported in your query: Format Type Explanation Format Mask Examples How Does Data Display Bit What should be exported for Yes values (i.e., 1) and what should be exported for No values (i.e., 0). Yes,No Yes will display in query results for the 1 bit prompt. No will display in the query results for the 0 bit prompt. Date Define the formatting and components of the date that should appear. yyyy-mm-dd dd 3 DateTime Define the formatting and components of the date and time that should appear. MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss tt 12/01/ :35:08 PM Real Specify how numbers should be formatted, including # s or decimals. #,###.00 1, Int Specify how numbers should be formatted. #,### 1,250 Money Display exported data in a monetary format. c $3.65 String (Upper Case) Display exported data in all upper case letters. N/A BIOLOGY String (Lower Case) Display exported data in all lower case letters. N/A biology String (Proper Case) Display exported data in proper case format where the first letter of each word is upper case and the rest are lower case. N/A Biology Distribution Typically this format type is used for Predict queries in order to determine where #s fall in a distribtuion. Interval 4 1, 2, 3, or 4 depending on which quartile the value falls within Custom SQL Manipulate the value using custom SQL (case when try_convert (int,@ Y will display if the value is less than 5. val) <5 then Y else N end) N will display if the value is greater than 5. replace(@val, -, ) will display as

5 Export s Beyond the Basics How to Configure Export s If a custom field you are exporting uses prompts, you may define up to five alternative export values to display in the results of a query. For example, you may wish to export an Entry Term field that uses prompts that are configured like this: Edit Record Edit Record Edit Record ID 4cf8c159-76e b02... ID fc845d24-8d49-484d-a04... ID f7b2db7e-3f6f-44a9-8fd0... Status Key term 2015 Fall Category Short Index Export F15 Export 2 Export 3 Export 4 Export 5 Od Order Status Key term 2015 Spring Category Short Index Export S15 Export 2 Export 3 Export 4 Export 5 Od Order Status Key term 2016 Fall Category Short Index Export F16 Export 2 Export 3 Export 4 Export 5 Od Order When configuring the Entry Term field export within a query, you may then opt to return a prompt s Export in your results, rather than a prompt s : Each prompt is configured with an alternative Export. For example, the export value may contain your institutional SIS code for that prompt. Edit Part Status Source Type Source Key Width Entry Term Local Export Entry Term Export Export Export 2 Export 3 Export 4 Export 5 Extended Select the Export option to return the alternative prompt values for your export. Our Best Advice When you run your query, the alternative Export will display in the results for that export column: Rows 1-3 of 3 Prev Next Search... Ref Entry Term Sampson, Penelope F Smith, John Edward F Binns, Jason F S15 Be consistent when adding export values! For example, if you need to export a field to an external system like your SIS, ensure that all associated prompts use the same Export configuration (i.e., if the SIS code you need is stored as Export 3, then all associated prompts should have their respective SIS code stored as Export 3 as well). 93

6 Extended s Beyond the Basics Exporting Extended s You may wish to export a custom field that uses prompts that are configured with a Short. For example, you may want to export a Major field that uses an associated prompt list that looks like this: Edit Record Edit Record Edit Record ID 4cf8c159-76e b02... ID 3a6701b2-2caf-4658-ac3c-... ID 1228c48a-46ae c... Status Key major Mechanical Engineering Category Short ME Index xva Status Key major Business Administration Category Short MBA Index xva Status Key major Music Education Category Short MUSE Index xva If is selected, a query export will return the Short if a short value exists for a prompt. For example, your query results may look like this: Rows 1-3 of 3 Prev Next Search... Ref Major Sampson, Penelope ME Smith, John Edward MBA Binns, Jason F MUSE A school will sometimes add Short s for academic program prompts which are known internally with shorter names or codes. The Short will be displayed in other areas of Slate, like within an application tab on the student record. You may override this behavior by selecting Extended. This will export the full value of a prompt rather than the Short : Edit Part Status Major Source Type Local Export Source Key Width Export Major Select the Extended option to return the full prompt instead. Export Export 2 Export 3 Export 4 Export 5 Extended Your query will then return the full prompt value in your query results: Rows 1-3 of 3 Prev Next Search... Ref Major Sampson, Penelope Mechanical Engineering Smith, John Edward Business Administration Binns, Jason F Music Education 94

7 Fields that Store Multiple s Beyond the Basics Exporting Fields that Store Multiple s Exporting All s You may wish to export a custom field that stores multiple values. Use the configuration options to customize how values are sent. For example, a Slate record may have the following information stored in a Race field: Race American Indian or Alaska Native Asian White In order to export all values in your query, configure your export to return All Field s and add an optional Separator: Edit Part Status Selecting All Field s will return all the values stored in a field for a record. Source Type Source Key Race Local Export Race Define how you would like multiple values to be separated. Common separators include:, ~ - Width Export You may leave this setting blank and values will not be separated (e.g., NAW). All/One? All Field s Separator, Your query results will dsiplay like this: Ref Race Sampson, Penelope American Indian or Alaska Native,Asian,White Exporting One Alternatively, you may define the one, precise value that should be exported: What s the Order? For ordered fields, the index value matches the order number. For unordered fields, values are ordered alphabetically. Edit Part Status... Race Select the Single Field at Selected Index option to return only one value. All/One? Single Field at Selected Index Index Number 2 Your query results will then dsiplay like this: Ref Race Sampson, Penelope Asian Choose which value should be exported (e.g., 1 will return the first value for the field, 2 will return the second value for the field). Asian is the second value that is stored within the Race field for this record. 95

8 Null s Beyond the Basics Exporting Null s A value may not exist in Slate for a particular record. When a value does not exist, the export column will be blank (NULL). You may have a query configured to export race information that looks like this: Ref Race Sampson, Penelope Asian,White Smith, John Edward White Binns, Jason F This record does not have a Race field value, so the column is blank in the query results. You may wish to export a particular value when a value does not exist. For example, when exporting race information to your institutional SIS, you may want to export the value Unknown when a record does not have a Race value. Configure your export to include a Null setting: Edit Part Status Source Type Source Key Width Race Local Export Race Export All/One? All Field s Separator, Format Type Null All Field s Unknown Configure the value you would like to have exported when a value does not exist for a record. Your query results will then display like this: Ref Race Sampson, Penelope Asian,White Smith, John Edward White Binns, Jason F Unknown 96

9 How to Add Filters How to Add Filters The Basics Click or drag the Filter button to add a filter that will restrict the records included in the query: Insert Query Part Search Groups Pinned Filters Local Filters Slate Template Library Local Filters Application Exists Citizenship (Primary) Citizenship (Secondary) Citizenship Status Operators: IN,NOT IN After clicking Continue, configure your filter to restrict your query results: Use the Search function to quickly find a desired filter. Select the Local Filters check box to display all filters that have been added to your instance. Select the Slate Template Library check box to display all available filters within the Slate Template Library, even if they have not been added to your instance. See Pinning instructions later in this section. Click the Filter you would like to add to your query then click Continue. Edit Part Status Source Type Estimated Rows Citizenship Status Citizenship Status Local Filter 16 IN Make a filter, /Pinned, or Inactive. Inactive filters will not be included in your results. See / Pinned instructions later in this section. US Citizen Permanent Resident Foreign National Save Save and New Cancel Estimated Rows is the number of rows that will be returned when you run your query with this filter. This number is calculated using all existing filters and the new filter you are configuring. After clicking Save, a filter box will be added to your query. You may further configure your filters by adding filter logic. Drag and drop the filter boxes into the proper order, add OR and NOT operators, and remember to use parentheses when necessary. For example: Citizenship Status IN US Citizen ( Has Form/Event Registration = Yes OR Has Verified Test Score = Yes ) Configure the filter to restrict your query results. In this example, only records with a US Citizenship will display in the query results. Click Save and New to add more filters to your query. This filter configuration would restrict the query results to only records that have a US Citizenship that also have either a form registration or a verified test score. 97

10 Pinned Exports and Filters Beyond the Basics Pinned Export and Filters Pinned Exports Pinned exports appear as their own group when adding items. If you frequently use the same exports for a population, you may pin those items to make it easier to quickly add them to a query: Insert Query Part Search Groups Pinned Exports Local Exports Slate Template Library Pinned Exports Edit Pinned Select All Ref Last Pinned Filters Click the Pinned Exports group to display frequently-used exports. Click the Edit Pinned link to add frequently-used exports to your Pinned group. Pinned filters appear as their own group when adding items. If you frequently use the same filters for a population, you may pin those items to make it easier to quickly add them to a query: Insert Query Part Search Groups Pinned Filters Local Filters Slate Template Library Click the Pinned Filters group to display frequently-used filters. Pinned Filters Entry Term IN 2016 Fall, 2016 Spring Application Exists EXISTS Submitted Edit Pinned Click the Edit Pinned link to add frequently-used filters to your Pinned group. How to Add Pinned Exports and Filters After clicking the Edit Pinned link, add items to the Pinned Exports/Filters query: Exports Ref Last + ABC Export Custom SQL Literal Filters Entry Term IN 2016 Fall, 2016 Spring Application Exists EXISTS Submitted Filter Custom SQL 98

11 /Pinned Status Beyond the Basics Using the /Pinned Status Filters with an /Pinned status allow users to quickly change the selections for a single query run without editing the query. The changes made to a filter by a user do not get saved. For example, you may add the following /Pinned filter to a query: Edit Part Status /Pinned Set the status to /Pinned. Staff Assigned Source Type Local Filter Estimated Rows 0 Staff Assigned IN Allison Klamm Beth Hubble Nicholas Grant Mark Smith Peter Gomez Richard Simpleton /Pinned filters can have a default setting or not. In this example, there is no default setting for the Staff Assigned filter. This setting will make the filter editable from the Run Query screen: Folder Applications / 2015 User John Smith Population Applications Execution Mode Retrieve all records each time query is run Filters Staff Assigned PINNED IN Estimated Rows 0 Click a Pinned Filter to edit the filter directly from the Run Query screen. Run Query Edit Filter Staff Assigned IN Allison Klamm Beth Hubble Nicholas Grant Mark Smith Peter Gomez Richard Simpleton The /Pinned status can be useful when you need to share queries with users who do not have the query permission but you want those users to be able to change certain items quickly before running a query. 99

12 The Slate Template Library Adding Exports and Filters to your Instance Use the Slate Template Library! Make Exports and Filters locally available in the Query Tool (for users who do not have the Slate Template Library permission) by using the Slate Template Library.
