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...
Cover - collapse year, free up rooms but not free up teachers
Cover Module - we understand that you can select and "manage timetable suspensions" to collapse a year and free up teachers and rooms. However we would like to be able to collapse a year, free up the rooms - but not free up the teachers. This is n...
Timetablers really need an Options Module, where choices can be made through the Pupil portal. Classes created could then be fed through to Teaching Manager.
Is there a roadmap of the priorities for data integration with Central? It would be great to have a timeline to know when new features are being considered. At the recent South East Asia User Group meeting (March 2024), we heard that <30% of iS...
Exam invigilators (both Internal and External exams) linked with cover Manager, so teachers can be assigned and shows up on their timetable.
The ability to assign invigilators to the exams on both modules, and this linked to Cover Manager so it can be assigned there and shows up on teachers timetables on iSAMs.

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...
We are a large group of schools and currently have to manage any changes to existing fields and schools manually. To ensure consistency of data recording across all sites this has to be done centrally to ensure that they are amended in the same wa...
Suspending a timetable also marks rooms as free for room changes
When a timetable is suspended e.g. Y11 go on leave on exams, it marks the room allocated to their lessons as avaliable so that these show up when allocating room changes.
