There are a few general settings that apply to the Timetable Interviews module (only). These are found by navigating to Interviews > Settings.
Allow teachers to request for unavailabilites
The default setting is to allow teachers to enter their unavailability times, however, each event offers this option so that it can be changed on a per event basis.
Teachers log in with their webcodes and navigate to Interviews > Unavailability and select +Add unavailability. The Interviews Administrator will be notified by email whenever a teacher submits an unavailability request for approval.
Allow parents to edit their user profile
Some schools like to allow families to update their details after logging in. The Interviews Administrator will be notified by email whenever a family edits their profile.
Show parent confirmation details screen on first log in
Families can be forced to confirm their details are correct the first time they log in. If they edit any of the details, an email will be sent to the Interviews administrator to inform them that changes have been made.
Allow parents to contact admin
This setting allows Families to reply-to emails sent from the system and also when choosing the 'Get help' button when logged in. Note that the 'Get Help' button does not display to Families if this option is not ticked.
By default emails will be sent to the user who sent the emails, but additional users can be selected in the next setting 'Email recipients'.
Email recipients
By default, users with the 'Interviews Administrator' and 'School administrator (License.exe)' roles will be sent system notifications. To specify exactly who should receive system notifications, enter the names of the users here. The users must have the role of Interviews administrator or School administrator as well as having the webcode generated to appear as options. If no webcode is issued then the user having the Interview administrator or school administrator will not appear in the option.
The types of system notifications consist are:
- Reply-to emails
- Cancellation emails
