• Import failed. Question code not recognized in this test
• Import failed. Sketch belongs to another test
• Import failed. File has no extension

Verify number of submitted sketches

In Monitor, you can verify that the number of submitted sketches corresponds to the number of imported sketches. This is visible in the Sketches column by adding a filter.

Adding the Sketches column in Monitor

Open Monitor and click Columns > Sketches.

The column for Sketches will then be visible inside Monitor. Any candidate with submitted and imported sketches will have two numbers. If everything is as it should be these two numbers will correspond.

• The first number shows how many sketches were registered by the invigilators.
• The second number shows imported sketches.

Using filters to see candidates with potential mismatch

When you have Monitor open and have added the Sketches column you can check potential mismatches.

In Monitor click to following:  Filters > Properties: All  > Sketches mismatch.
