How to create Meetings in Atlantis
Meetings can be created in Atlantis in a few simple steps
There is a default meeting object that gets created in the Courses table called "Mtg". This object is created in the NoStudents year.
Here are the steps for creating Meetings:
- Go to Data Entry > Classes and select the NoStudents year
- Click into the bottom row of the table showing "..."
- Enter "Mtg"
- Click into the Section field and give the meeting a meaning entry here, for example "MathFaculty"
- Each other field behaves in the same way a regular class would, with one exception, the "Teacher req" field.
- Click on the pencil icon to the right of the "Teacher req" field. Every teacher you select in the pop up dialogue box will be hard coded to the meeting.
- Close the dialogue box once you have selected all the teachers for the meeting. You should get something like this:
- "ABCD only + WXYZ only"
- Now go straight to Timetables > Year timetables, select the NoStudents year and you will see a meeting object at the bottom of the timetable. Just drag this meeting onto the timetable.
Want all your meetings in their own "Meetings" Year?
This is simple:
- Create the Year level in Data Entry > Setup > Year-levels.
- Enter "Y" in the corresponding "For Meetings" field
- Go to Data Entry > Courses and select the NoStudents year level
- In the "Years" column (you may need to turn this column on) click and select the "Meetings" year you just created.
- Now you can create all your meetings in the Classes screen of the Meetings year
