This feature only works if UMS has uploaded the data with our TimeEdit module.

Extra required TimeEdit fields

Rooms

Rooms must have 2 fields in TimeEdit

  • general.id
  • general.title

general.id

Will be put in these 2 fields in UMS

  • Room ID
  • Room number

general.title

Will be put in this field in UMS

  • Room name


These fields must be set on the timetable block.

comment

This will be copied to UMS as a comment field on the timetable blocks.

AbsenceRegistration

UMS supports Absence information from TimeEdit.

This is achieved by creating a True/False column on the timetable blocks called "AbsenceRegistration"

When set to True UMS will see the timetable block as Attendance Registration enabled.

FAQ

What to do when TimeEdit replaces an existing timetable system such as SIS ?

When the school is ready to drop the old system, all old timetable data must be removed from UMS, else the enduser will see duplicated timetable blocks due days back / days ahead settings in both old and new system.
