  1. Allow Flex Periods and Class Calendar to have Linking Capability

    Linking the Flex Periods and Flex Calendars so that when selecting one the other is attached. Districts could link or choose not to link based on how they are building their schedules. This just makes good sense and eliminates repetitious data entry.

  2. Flex Scheduling - Create Section Number Based on Flex Period

    In non-flex scheduling, when creating SMS/MST sections the first number of a section automatically corresponded to the period during which the section was held, based on a School Option. Now when creating sections in Flex Scheduling the section number automatically starts with the number 1 and we need to manually adjust the section number so that it corresponds to the correct period. May we please request that feature be included in Flex Scheduling?

  3. Attendance Page in FLEX Should Revert to the Original View

    Allow the Attendance page in a flex school to display with minimal options and a more condensed view. The header has too much information. Condense all rows to display more of the student's attendance for more days in the month. The user wants to have similar views as the non-flex school does.

  5. Staff Page - Sort classes by period

    On the Staff page, have the ability to sort the teacher's classes by period time. Currently the classes are set up to sort alpha, not by time / chronological. This is problematic for flex scheduling where the sort order of period names are alphanumeric.

  8. In FLEX schools, Mass Change Period Abs. no longer inserts a note if the student does not have a class scheduled during the affected period.

    We would like to request that Flex Scheduling Attendance Notes work the same as a non-flex school in the following regard:
    In a FLEX environment, Mass Change Period Absences no longer inserts a note if the student does not have a class scheduled during the affected period, which was useful information to have.
    In a NON Flex environment, the note adds to all students no matter if a student has a class scheduled or not, during the affected period.

  9. Flex scheduling- Please add Field-Level Security for Primary Teachers (Student/Parent portal)

    Please add Field-Level Security for Primary Teachers so it can be turned on/off. We are using Flex Scheduling and when the primary teacher is set to Yes for Section Staff Members, it is visible on the parent/student portal before schools are ready to release that information.

  10. SMS Builder - Allow Adding Staff From Other Schools

    We are using Staff ID Based SMS ( not full flex ) and we have staff teaching at two locations and need to be able to add them to the SMS / MST board when using Staff ID Based SMS.

    We would like there to be a SMS/MST option to allow search for a teacher outside of the STF.PSC field, so they can add a teacher from another school.

  11. Flex Scheduling - SMS Builder Teacher Selection

    In Flex Scheduling, when using SMS Builder is there a way for the drop down for Teacher selection to only reflect the staff at the school level rather than the district level.

  12. When blanking out the SMS - option to not delete FTF

    If a client is using Flex Scheduling for the first time, and they create the FTF and CCL data, then they Blank out the SMS table, they lose all of their work. When blanking out the SMS table, should there be an option to NOT delete the FTF table?

  13. Scheduling Page Setup Processes

    On the Scheduling Setup page, the new option in the initializing of the SMS table confuses the order to use these options:
    Do Nothing with the SMS Table, but Copy Flex Periods (FTF)
    Blank out the SMS Table
    Copy current master schedule (MST) table to the new SMS table.

    Blanking out the SMS table does not copy the FTF table, but it does warn that the FTF table for next year will be deleted. Should blanking out the SMS table have an option to NOT delete the FTF table? Or, should the training be done to blank out the SMS…

  18. Add a Warning on the Scheduling Setup Page for Flex Scheduling

    From Trainers: If a district is transitioning to Flex for the first time and they copy over MST each, they must reach out to support for the conversion. So if they select the Flex option - a popup should appear that states something like, "If transitioning to Flex the copy MST feature is not enabled. Select the Scheduling Students into classes for Next Year option and contact support to enable for Flex". Also, if converting to Flex for the first time, the Copy MST should be disabled and not an option.

  19. Add the ability to Repeat Weeks in the Class Calendar

    For Flex: When building a class calendar - add the ability to repeat weeks within the calendar (as we have in the Block Schedule calendar) to eliminate the tedious process of building an A/B concept - for example - in the class calendar. We would like options to range from 2 week up to 5 weeks.

    1. The first advantage is that you can schedule your block days for a 2 week period - for example - and have that pattern copy through the calendar for each Flex Period.

    2. We are asking for the option to be available for 2 weeks,…

  20. Bell Scheduler page should display flex period bell schedules

    The Bell Scheduler page used to display the bell schedule for the day a schedule was assigned to. Now that we're using flex scheduling, there is NO way I can see to actually see the entire bell schedule for any given bell schedule.

    The Bell Scheduler page lists the schedules and lists all flex periods, and allows you to assign a schedule to a day, but doesn't let you see what the schedule is that you're assigning. Showing all flex periods available gives us a bottom left corner total instructional time of 1557 minutes because of overlaps.

    The Flex Periods…
