3. To generate a PMP, select the check boxes in the Bulk PMP column for each applicable student, or select the check box in the column header to select all students in the list.
4. Click Create Bulk PMPs at the top of the screen.

A PMP will be generated for the selected students using the PMP event, content, tier, hypothesis, monitoring tools, and strategies from the trigger.
If a student already has an open PMP event with the same content area and tier level as the trigger, the PMP will not be generated for the student.
If a student already has an open PMP event with a different content area and the same tier level, a new row will be added to the existing PMP populated based on the trigger's setup.
If a student already has an open PMP event with the same content area and different tier level:
- lower tier to higher tier (e.g. Math Tier 1 already exists, and Math Tier 2 trigger) - A new row will be added to the existing PMP populated based on the trigger's setup
- higher tier to lower tier (e.g. Math Tier 3 already exists, and Math Tier 2 trigger) - A new row is not created on the existing PMP
6. Click the X to close the pop-up window.
7. Click the MTSS button next to a student to open the most recent MTSS event for the student in a new tab.
