Every piece of QMR’s grading workflow traces back to the exam. An exam is more than a test name — it’s the container that holds your answer key, links to an answer sheet template, and groups the class sittings that take it. Understanding how these parts connect will help you set everything up correctly before printing a single sheet.Documentation Index

The exam
When you create an exam in the dashboard, you give it four pieces of identifying information:- Title — the name of the test (for example, “Mid-term English”).
- Year — the academic year the exam belongs to.
- Round number — which sitting this is within the year (for example, Round 2 of a monthly series).
- Subject — the subject area, shown as a badge in the exam list.
- Active / Inactive — an active exam accepts new scanned submissions. Deactivate an exam when the grading period is over to remove it from your working list without deleting any data.
- Answer status — shows “Entry required” until you have entered the correct answer for every question in the problem set. Scanning works without an answer key, but answers will not be graded until the key is complete.
Answer sheet templates
The answer sheet template (called an exam paper in the dashboard) defines the physical layout of the paper students write on. It is a reusable design that you create once and can attach to multiple exams. When you print answer sheets for a round, QMR generates a PDF based on this template. A template is built from three types of areas, each drawn onto the sheet background using the visual area editor:- QR code area — every sheet has exactly one QR code zone. When a sheet is scanned, QMR reads this code first. It encodes the exam, the round, and the student, so no manual lookup is ever needed.
- Student information area — the section where a student writes or marks their name and student ID. This area is recognised by QMR to assist with student identification.
- Problem marking areas — the bubble or checkbox regions where students mark their answers. Each area maps to one or more questions on the exam.
A template must have a QR code area defined before any answer sheets can be printed. Without it, QMR cannot link a scanned sheet to an exam or a student.
Exam rounds
A round represents one specific sitting of the exam — one class group taking the test on a particular date. A single exam can have as many rounds as you need. For example, if Class A takes the mid-term on Monday and Class B takes the same exam on Wednesday, you create two rounds under the same exam. Each round gets its own PDF of answer sheets (with QR codes that identify the round), its own list of submissions, and its own slice of statistics. To add a round, open the exam detail page and use the Add group (section) button in the groups table. You can rename a round inline at any time. To print the answer sheets for a round, click Download next to that round — QMR generates the PDF in seconds.Problem sets and the answer key
Each exam has at least one problem set (called a set in the dashboard). A problem set groups a collection of questions with a name, individual point values, and — once you enter them — the correct answers. The answer key is entered per problem set by clicking Enter or Edit in the answer column of the problem sets table.Find the answer information section
Scroll to the Answer information section. The table lists every problem set attached to the exam, along with the question count and completion status.
Enter correct answers and point values
Click Enter (or Edit if you have already started) next to a problem set. A side panel opens where you can type the correct answer for each question and set its point value.
