Example data

The Graduation Deck, one per student generated from the student records, one document per student. Example data.

The problemThe template is saved under a new name and edited by hand, once per student, hundreds of times, against a date that cannot move. The typos are found on the day, on the screen, in front of families. What it costs nowOne slide per student, typed and checked by hand, times the size of the cohort, times the number of ceremonies in a year. Put your four numbers in. The reportThe graduation slideshow, the certificate, the transcript cover, the member card. The cyclePer ceremony, per term, per cohort. The sourcesThe student list in Excel or Excel Online, or an export from the student information system. The INSYNCR feature that carries itSnapshot (one slide per row for the ceremony screen) and Snapshot Save As (one PDF per student).

Bound, not generated

AI can draft your deck. It cannot promise that slide 4 matches the ledger.

A generated number is a guess that reads well. A bound number is a cell, a query or a field you can point at, inspect and explain to someone who cannot read code. When the report has a consequence, that difference is the product.

Generated

Fluent, and unaccountable

Ask an assistant for the quarterly pack and you get a plausible deck. Nobody can tell a correct rule from a convincing wrong one, and a report generated for the wrong client is a perfectly correct report. Nothing downstream detects it.

Bound

Every number has an address

Each figure, chart and table in the slide is linked to the exact cell, view or field it came from. Refresh brings the new data through the same link. The reviewer checks what changed, and the auditor can follow the line back.

Use Copilot to write the commentary. Use INSYNCR to make sure the numbers under it are real.

FAQ

Questions people ask before they try it

Can you do a mail merge in Microsoft PowerPoint?

Not natively. Snapshot does it: one slide or one file per row of the list, with names, dates and photos bound to columns.

Which plan?

Starter reads Excel and Excel Online, which is what most student exports are.

Try it on your own report

Start with the pack you rebuilt last quarter.

Starter is the pack this case needs: it reads these sources and generates one document per record.
