Click on the down arrow in the dropdown menu to display and select one of the available views.  The selected view will remain in place when using the record indicator at the top right to move forward or back to records within the Instructor tab.  

 

Both instructor views contain a combination of the following fields.

To assign an instructor into a class:

 

1.     Open the class record and click the Instructor tab.

2.     Click the Assign button. 

3.     On the data chooser, select one or more staff by checking the box on the row.  Only active staff will display on the data chooser.

4.     Enter an Assign Date at the bottom left of the window, click Show Selected to display the selected staff, or both.  (You do not have to click Show Selected – this is optional.)

5.     Show Selected allows you to enter a separate assignment date in the field on the grid if multiple staff have been selected.  The Assign Date is highlighted in green, indicating an editable field.

6.     Click Assign Instructor.

 

The Assign button will be inactive until an Assign date is entered.

 

When multiple staff are selected, the first staff will be the primary instructor.  To change the primary, open the instructor record where primary is No. Check the Primary Assignment checkbox and Save. 

 

You cannot uncheck Primary Assignment in a primary instructor record.
