Auto Classing (on Course Booking)

  • It is possible have have Schoolworks automatically create a Class placement (class a student) based on a course booking.

  • There are configuration settings on the Course Service record and the Class record which enable and control how this feature behaves.


Course Service setting

  • Auto Placement - this when ticked, switches on the auto class placement feature; subject to the related Class records having their Auto Placement tickbox ticked

  • Auto Placement Count - this when ticked controls the number of class placements which will be created - subject to the related Class records having their Auto Placement tick box ticked.

  • Typically this would be set to ONE but might be TWO if the Course allows for multiple placements in classes at the same time/date.

Class Setting

  • Auto Placement - when ticked, enables this class to be used when a student books a course which has auto placement enabled.

  • If more than one class has Auto Placement ticked, then the automatic placement will be done until the Auto Placement Count has been reached for that Course.

Important

  • If more than one class is enabled for Auto Placement, depending on the Service Auto Placement count, the assignment of Class is random.
