Document Generation

iSIMS allows for the generation of documents based on system templates or user-uploaded templates. Document templates must be uploaded as formatted Microsoft Word documents with mail merge fields.

Accessing Document Generation

• Go to Student Services → Document Generation.

• You will see:

  • Templates available to all departments.

  • Templates attached to your specific department.

Generating Documents

You can generate documents for a single student or in bulk.

1. Search and select the student.

2. Use the following tabs:

   • Student Requests – shows any document requests submitted by the student. (Requests are department-specific).

   • Create Document from Template – select a pre-defined Word template.

     • A preview of the document appears.

     • Download as Word or PDF.

   • Transcript and Academic Report – generate official transcripts or academic reports.

Customized System Templates

Some templates are built into the core of iSIMS and cannot be modified by users.

• These templates are usually requested by the institution and are maintained by the system administrator.

• An example is the Transcript template.

• To generate documents like transcripts, additional permissions are required.

Storage

• All generated documents are automatically attached to the student’s profile for future reference.
