Please add Actual Courses for Placeholder Courses i.e. (Edgenuity, APex or Indepdendent Study) for non Alternative Ed. Scheduling
Would like to see a solution for High Schools who offer online courses (i.e. Edgenuity, APEX) and or use placeholder courses. Currently, High Schools are unable to know the exact course that students are taking via Edgenuity program, which makes it highly problematic to schedule, figure out their graduation status, keep tabs on progress via grading, transcribing.
In looking at current Aeries features there are 2 current functions that get close to providing a solution. The first one is Alternative Ed. Scheduling, however I was told that this feature would not work in a regular comprehensive, as it would throw…

Staff ID Based SMS/MST ( non flex ) - Ability to add placeholder teachers
We would like a way to create sections that do not have a teacher associated on the SMS / a teacher that has not been added to STF.
Many times our HR department is running behind, so we need to be able to schedule nearly completely and then just update the teacher STF.ID in the SMS/ MST.
If there is a way to highlight these sections that would be great.

MST Board- Allow an option to skip inactive sections
Add an option to Skip Inactive classes on the MST Board. We have the Skip TA button, it would be great to add Skip Inactive Classes, we don't always delete inactive sections right away and then the teachers are calling about the inactive ones.

Scheduling using the "show available periods" Screen
Schedulers would benefit tremendously by being able to select courses/sections based on the grid availability directly on the "show available periods" screen rather than grabbing from the SMS/MST list. The ability to see them is awesome, but wondering if we have the ability to select directly from that view that I haven't found yet.
If we can click on the circle and it would select that section, that would save countless hours of searching the SMS and waiting for the Sort/Filter function at each step.3 votes -
Master Schedule Page - Section Staff Members - Staff Role allow for code table values
Currently the Staff Role dropdown field is hardcoded. Allow for custom code table values to work here so that values can be added for specialists, coaches, and other types of add on staff to the section.

Master Schedule and Scheduling Master pages: make Track field display COD values for STU.TR
On the Scheduling Master page (SchedulingMaster.aspx) and the Master Schedule page, the Track field will allow any single character to be saved. Instead, the field should display a dropdown with the school's codes and descriptions for the STU.TR field from COD, and save the STU.TR codes.

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…

Master Schedule- Add a Next and Previous button for quicker navigation
Can we get a Next and Previous buttons added to the Master Schedule screen?
There are times when it's necessary to review Sections & being able to click through them would be much easier than having to print the Class Load Analysis & enter each section number individually.

Create a Report that Lists Students with Scheduling Exclusions
A report to list all students with SED records would be helpful. Since the SED table is copied from year-to-year, and copied from a feeder school, SED records may need to be changed or deleted.

The Copy students to summer school should show the summer term and preference in the course requests page at the summer school
My summer school is offering 2 terms and each term has an am and pm. Even though the summer course requests are still ordered by the course#, at least you can still see the term and am/pm preference this student is assigned to. Once you copy students to summer school, their course requests in the summer school do not show their summer
term or am/pm preference. My summer admin will need to have 2 browser windows open for each of their summer students. One browser in the regular school to view the summer course requests for the summer term and…3 votes -
Add Copy Button for College Articulations
Currently there is no copy button - so each college we work with has to be entered manually. Our tech dept can then copy it to all sites. But this year we are working with 5 community colleges and the criteria is the same at each. All the other edit buttons have an option to copy, why not this?

Courses - Sort SMS courses by period
When you are on the courses page and click on the SMS tab to see the sections for that course it is sorting by teacher and section number. It would be nice if it sorted by teacher and period or just by period.

Handling Course Requests for leaving students
In order to manage Course Requests for students at the end of the year that we know will not be returning (but have already entered Course Requests), it would be helpful for either:
1) When/if changing the STU.NS to 999, have a subsequent popup asking if you would like to delete all SSS records
OR
2) If STU.NS = 999, the SMS mass scheduling process should ignore or reject any SSS records related to that student
This would be in the scenario you are using SMS to schedule for a future DB year and will help not having these students…
