title1. Time Period Configuration

1. Time Period Configuration

If you are a Full Admin user of the system, you will see a SESSION CONFIGURATION section above the screen with the following information:

  1. Controls when students can use the Students Units Session screen

  2. Controls what is editable via the Students Units Session screen

  3. Additional Controls that may be optionally enabled

The first two are time period configurations that will be discussed here, while the third one is to be configured by the Silverband Support team only- more details here.

The two configuration periods help you to restrict when students are able to amend their session enrolments, as well as allow you to control the data that is editable on the screen.

For information on how to edit a configuration time period within your system refer to our article here: https://silverband.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/PKB/pages/984994/Edit+Time+Period#D.-Edit-Configuration-Period

Follow the menu path: System > Edit Time Period, then choose the type of Configuration Period, click the Search Time Period button and search for records that have the following Time Period Ids:

Time Period Id

Type

Name

titleNavigate to the page

Navigate to the page

Student Permission Level

The students can access the page via the Student > Sessions menu on the side.

Admin Permission Level

The Session Enrolment screen can be accessed via the Student > Course Enrolment > Sessions menu on the side.

A Note when Loading the page

This screen (student_units_sessions.php) allows students to amend their session enrolment directly.

When a student uses this URL directly (…/student_units_sessions.php) without loading the Student Summary screen first, they might encounter the following error message that prompts them that they must load a course enrolment before beginning their session selections.

This is the same for Admin users, a student course enrolment record must be loaded first, else, an error in the screenshot below will be displayed.
