Feature Ideas

SMS communication is expensive for the students and dated, while WhatsApp is free. Students can authorized channel.

Just like we are able to sync our schedule to our Google calendars, it would be great to be able to sync this with our 365/outlook calendar.

It would be useful to have SMS and email auto reminders for 'Events' as well as Classes.

The ability to build a custom report/export

Please could you make the dashboard widgets interactive at the moment, Notifications, Birthdays and Payments are interactive It would be more useful for me to have the same ability to click and drill down for more information with the following: Lesson (attendance) Behaviour Group Messaging Also would it be possible for each user choose which elements they see on their dashboard (if they have permission)

It would be great is the School inventory could have these two enhancements: When an item is selected and you see the item details, if you could navigate to the next or previous item in the list with easy next/previous arrows. (it would be great if it navigated next and previous based on the search results of the inventory screen and not the whole index of items).To be able to assign inventory items to anyone in the 'People' category, whether it is teachers/ students/ staff. That way we can see what person has what easily (to then be able to search based off of a name would be great.

Refunds - this process is a little difficult. We need to be able to refund a student from their file the same way you can add a payment - 'add a refund' and for this to come off their fees and add a receipt for record

I am thinking if we could have Class Templates it will make it very easy to create one class or even to create several classes when scheduling for next school year. For example: One will be able to set some data that repeats in every class like: subect teacher (e.g. there will be one template per teacher, per level) teacher fees student fees classroom start date (today's date) end date

So, when I input an item, there is the option of setting the quantity. However sometime like with phones/laptops/monitors etc. If there is an item that has a quantity more than 1 (like we buy 5) there is often more than one serial number that relates to each item. Could it be possible to add serial numbers so that an item can have one when the quantity is increased? I am currently inputting each item individually. But if I had the option to input quantity 5 and add 5 serial numbers along with my other request of assigning items to people (see my other request) then I believe this would make things cleaner and save time.

The ability to set max numbers when setting up a class as some classes which take place in the same room have different capacity so the room limit does not always work

As we are an online language school, when a student goes through the booking system and selects the lesson they want, "Private lesson - 55 mins" for example, the classroom has to be set here related to the lesson type they select. In our situation multiple teachers can teach this lesson but then we need the classroom to be the online video lesson with each teachers separate link in, we have currently created a classroom for each teacher with their own respective zoom link in. For example; if "Private lesson - 55 mins" is selected, then from teacher A, B or C the student selects Teacher B, we then need the classroom to be defined by the Teacher they selected and not the lesson type. Otherwise, our lesson list will have to be each type of lesson for each teacher which would be 30+ and more as we keep growing.

This is where we submit ideas, but they should be shared with all users on a monthly basis so people can engage and vote. Otherwise, it ends up being the same people always submitting suggestions without receiving meaningful votes, and these suggestions are not being taken into consideration.

A BIG THANK YOU for adding “This Academic Year” option in the period filtering — this is extremely helpful and saves time when generating reports. Would it be possible for the ending date of THIS ACADEMIC YEAR automatically appear as the default end date when creating new classes?

I would like to suggest that for the items we have entered in the custom field, can be displayed in alphabetical order so we do not have to waste time scrolling up and down looking for it when we need to choose them.

It would be very time-saving if, when creating a class with custom dates (a feature that is already available), we could also assign a different student when adding new lessons to that class. Currently, the system automatically assigns the student(s) originally selected when the class is first created. As an institute that mainly offers one-to-one lessons, we frequently schedule many one-off lessons in addition to regular lessons. At the moment, we need to create a new class each time, even when the lesson structure (duration, teacher, subject, etc.) is the same (only the time and student differ).
