Cover Manager

In HR Manager > School tab, we entered the TA settings as follows: Teaching staff = No Teaching Assistant = Yes In doing so, we realized it has a major impact on Cover Manager i.e. they no longer on the free list to do cover! Even when we grant...

We use Cover Manager in iSAMS to allocate teachers for cover lessons. All our teachers use Google Calendars. They export the timetable from iSAMS to create their Google Calendar. They then add any meetings, or events in to Google Calendar as and w...
