Student management system import

This plugin allows Moodle LMS to be integrated with multiple student management systems (SMS). This will allow a Moodle site to import student records from the different SMS. The student records will be automatically updated on a daily basis. This allows to create a school which is linked to a cohort and then add user accounts to it.

It currently supports Edge SMS and eTAP SMS. Subscription will be needed with the respective SMS
