Score-Based Lottery Updates

1. "Lottery Design Options" Modal 

To simplify the initial setup, we have moved the more complex and less commonly used settings into a new "Lottery Design Options" modal.

• Simpler Setup: Users who need a straightforward lottery design can now configure priorities without being distracted by advanced options.

• Opt-in Complexity: When you need an advanced feature, simply open the "Lottery Design Options" modal and enable the features you want.

• Consistent Behavior: If you enable a design option, it will be an available setting for all sub-lotteries within your overall lottery design.

• In Product Help: Each design option includes a direct link to a help article so you can quickly understand exactly what actions to expect when using that setting.

 

2. Clearer Callouts for Tiered vs. Weighted Lotteries 

We have added clearer on-screen descriptions and callouts to help you immediately understand the difference when choosing between Tiered and Weighted lotteries during design creation. This ensures you can confidently select the model that best suits your needs.

 

3. Score-Based Lottery Updates

Prior to Enroll 3.2, lotteries that employed sorting by score made lottery priorities irrelevant.  Students were sorted by score across all priority sub-lotteries. 

New Option: Score-Based within Priority Groups

Students are first grouped by their assigned Priority Group, and then, within each individual priority group, students are placed based on their score.

In the example below, there is one sub-lottery that prioritizes students of board members, and then ranks them in descending order by the selected field.  This would achieve the previous outcome where everyone is sorted in one group.

What's possible now is to have a second sub-lottery that also sorts students by the same score field, a different one, or none at all.  This new structure provides complete flexibility in grouping students by priorities and sorting them within such.
