Staff Non Contact and Duty Code
Access: To access this area, the following permissions from the Curriculum Module need to be ticked within Config>Setup>Roles & Permissions.
To begin, you would need to go to Config>Curriculum>Staff Non Contact and Duty Codes.
This will load all of the Staff Non Contact and Duty Codes currently in the system.
If there is one you are happy to use, such as Blanking, then you can skip to the Staff Timetabling Section of this guide.
If you wish to create a new Code, press New.
This will provide you with a section on the right of the page where you can give the new Code a Name and Description.
You can also tick Active (this lets you select this Code later on) and Cover Required (this means that you will need to Arrange Cover when using this Code).
Once the information is added, press Create.
The Code will now appear in the list and can be edited at any time by simply clicking on it.
Now that the Staff Non Contact and Duty Code has been created, you can add it to a Staff Member’s Timetable.
