It would be useful to see in the cover manager audit, the record details that the audit refers to. Currently it is just listed with the changes to an entry number( ie XXX editied #175) but with no way of matching which teacher/lesson etc this reco...

When we raise a REQ we can add an attachment but when we convert that REQ into a PORD the attachment is not carried forward onto the PORD. We use this for quotes etc. What we would like is for this document to appear at every stage up until INV. A...

When we suspend lessons by year group (not by set), it also effects other year groups if we have a student out of their year in that class/set. Example: I have suspended Upper 6 lessons for study leave. A Lower 6 lesson showing as suspended in cov...

When creating staff meetings, it would be good if it reflects on the cover manager.

It would be useful if when you added a member of staff as unavailable they system checked if they were already allocated to cover and alerted or removed the cover.
