FAQ

Missing subject / title

Titles in timetable are based on ActivityDescription in UMS (TimeEdit key: studentclass.longdecript).

If bookings are not bound to activities then fill out the comments field in TimeEdit. The Comment field is also displayed on the body text of the booking.


There is no field with ext.id "person.first_name" , "general.email" etc

The missing fields must be configured in the TimeEdit database. You can do this either by making a supportrequest to TimeEdit or download a an administrative tool from TimeEdit, please contact TimeEdit for further information.

How can I test a TimeEdit certificate ?

Download the SoapUI tool and send a soap register-request as shown in the screenshot. If the certificate is registreret correctly at TimeEdit the response will be the key used for 2 factor authentication.
