Schools using the Term 4  'Meadowbanks' rollover feature in the timetable.etz  file cannot use the 'Meadowbanks' feature in Timetable Daily. They do NOT complement each other -  it is a case of using one or the other.  For information on the Term 4 rollover please see the following Knowledge Base articles:

E10 - Timetable Changes for Yr11 and Yr 12 (NSW)

E10 - Term 4 - What happens to the timetable (NSW)

1. Set up a Meadowbanks type event in Timetable Daily

• Create new event
• Select the Event type as 'Meadowbanks' 
• Add the relevant year level by selecting 'Whole Year Group' only. All classes for that Year level will be cancelled.      
  
• If composite classes exist within the selected year level and these need to remain running, please go to Daily > Settings > Cover options and tick the box for 'Meadowbanks will keep composite classes running'

           

2. Cover classes with teacher from the Meadowbank category

• Click on a class requiring cover to bring up the Alternatives pop up
• Choose a teacher from the Meadowbanks category

            

Important Notes:

• Teachers will not be taken from the Meadowbanks category when performing an auto staff.
  
  
• Teachers will appear for a Meadowbanks cover if they lost a class due to a Meadowbanks event on the day the class was lost. That is, they will not appear for Meadowbanks covers on days where they were not teaching a class that has been cancelled due to a Meadowbanks event
  
  
• Meadowbanks covers are a separate and independent credit accounting category. If staff lost classes to a Meadowbanks event, and are also usually Underload, then they will appear in BOTH cover categories. The Daily Organiser can choose which credit category they wish to apply to the cover by selecting them from the relevant tab.
  
  
• Teachers who can have a Meadowbanks cover assigned to them will show in each tab with an asterisk next to their name to highlight this option.
  
  
• The Meadowbanks % column counts covers with respect to the covers given for covers lost for the entire Meadowbanks event period.
  
  
• There is no option to cap the percentage of Meadowbanks covers for each teacher. As the Meadowbanks cover type will always be given manually, it is up to the Daily Organiser to monitor this when assigning covers over the period.
