Overview
Sometimes, due to many changes in the Master Schedule and student schedules, the class counts may be incorrect, and as a result, need to be re-indexed (initialized) for accuracy. The steps below identify how to do this task.
How-to
- In the Master Schedule Editor, at the bottom of the screen, click on the Init button.
- Verify the Year, District, and School selections. Usually these do not need to be changed.
- The date will default to the current date, which is normal for during the school year.
- The date could be changed if the user wanted to know the counts of classes on a date in the past.
- Place a check mark in the box next to Realign student schedules to the master schedule.
- This refers to the course names and will make the course name in the student schedule match on the Master Schedule name based on the section number. It quickly allows you to update all student schedules in case at one point a "no" was answered in the process of changing a course name in the master schedule.
- Click the Start Initialization button to begin the process. A progress message will be displayed in the blue section of the dialog box.
- When done, the dialog box will close and the Master Schedule Editor will be refreshed with the updated counts for all classes.
