The clone function allows you to quickly and easily copy an existing timetable item.
This is useful where you will schedule the same course frequently, with only minor differences - for example the dates of practical sessions, or who the trainer will be.
How to Clone a Timetable
- Navigate to the master timetable list (Manage > Timetables)
- Look for the timetable item you would line to clone, and click the CLONE button
- Alternatively if you have the Timetable Calendar enabled (Manage > Timetable Calendar), click on an item you wish to clone and click the copy icon in the top right of the pop-up
- Specify how many clones of it you would like to produce
-
Optionally use the advanced cloning options. If you do not utilise these, all clones will be created with the same date as the original timetable item.
- Provide the date you wish the clones to commence from.
- If clones should not be created every day, but only specific days (ie. Monday's only) select the days
- If clones should not be created on holidays, select to exclude holidays
- Click button in bottom right corner of the pop up to produce clones
-
A summary of the cloned timetables will display on the page, and provide you the opportunity to easily edit from the one screen certain details like date, location, pricing, etc.
- If you make changes to a clone (ie. change the price, trainer, etc.) click it's RE-SAVE button
- The same as producing a timetable from scratch, by default a clone will be in draft mode when it is created. To publish instantly, click the PUBLISH button
- If you are utilising pathways, we recommend you click the EDIT SESSIONS button and check pathways have been selected prior to publishing
- If you have produced too many clones, click DELETE on any you no longer require- To open the detailed timetable editor, click OPEN
