Why we recommend setting up a new Daily Organiser file for each term.
It is recommended that a new the Daily Organiser file should be started for each Term or Semester. With the information that is put into the Daily Organiser file each week, it quickly becomes a very large file and therefore can take a long time to save. As reports can be linked from one file to the next, it is not necessary to keep the information for the whole year in one file.
Information that has been entered in another Daily Organiser file can be imported from a previous file. That is, Start Dates, Unsupervised lessons, Absence Reasons, Cancellation Reasons, Emergency Teachers and Relief Teachers Information are all imported along with any details entered about the teachers. If some Teachers load details have changed from last semester it is important to adjust the Uncounted per Cycle for any teachers thus affected.
It is also most important to make sure that the new Daily Organiser File is linked to the new timetable file for Semester Two.
On our web site Lesson 9 of the Daily Organiser Overview Course goes through the stages of setting up a new Daily Organiser File and importing the Parameters from a previous file.
