Overview Use case How to create a Session Template How to create a Session using a Session Template

Overview

The following article covers the process of creating a Session, by using a Session Template.


Use case

An educational institution is offering a Course, whereby the classes (Sessions) will be administered every Thursday at 9 am, and Friday at 3 pm.

Sessions are created using the Session Scheduler, where the admin will need to define the Session Time, the day of the week, recurrence, and facility.


A Session Template can be created to act as a template, that pre-defines those information (highlighted in the red square above).

Rather than repetitively filling in those information when creating a Session, the Session Template can be applied, to automatically populate the Session Time information.



How to create a Session Template


1. Go to the Session Template Builder and click on the button.


2. Fill up the Educational Institution and the Course / Unit.


3. Click on the 'Add new row' button and fill in the information.


4. Click on the 'Done' button.

5. In the template list, find the created template 'Template A'. 

6. Click on the edit icon and select the 'Plot time' option.


7. Click on the slot that you want to plot the time (e.g.: Thursday 9 am).

8. Fill up the below information and click on the 'Add' button.


9. The created Session Template will be shown according to the time that was plotted.


10. You may plot different times for the Courses and it will be shown in the template builder.



How to create a Session using a Session Template


1. Go to the Session Scheduler and click on the   button.


2.  Fill the Educational Institution, Course, Course Offering, and Band accordingly. The Session Template (created earlier) will be shown. 


3. Click on the button beside the Session Template and click on the 'Apply' button.


4. The Session Time record will be created according to the template you set up above. 

These fields are automatically populated, thus saving time from having to manually fill them in.


5. Fill up the Session information and click on the 'Save and Update Schedules' button.


6. The calendar icon will turn green and you will be able to view the Session in the view.


The class (Session) for this Course has now been automatically created for every recurring Thursday and Friday.
