Choose the state and board, and switch on features

Everything that varies between institutions is a setting. Two pages hold the main ones.

Institution profile

Open Institute > Institution profile. The owner, institution admin and principal can edit it.

1. Preset. Choose School, ITI, D.El.Ed, Junior college, Hostel or Custom and press Apply preset. A preset only fills in the settings below. You can change any of them afterwards. Applying a preset replaces unsaved changes.
2. Words. The words used on screens and prints: school, ITI, D.El.Ed or hostel. For example Student, Trainee or Resident.
3. Features. Switch on what you use. Menus and form fields follow: - Programmes and years (trades or courses instead of standards) - Seats, Quotas, State admission process - NCVT numbers - Attendance eligibility - Placements and internships - Scholarships - Biometric import - Pass or fail results - AI assistant (the owner must also switch it on). See The AI data assistant.
4. Terms and groups. Annual or semester terms, default group size and the funding type (aided, unaided and so on).
5. Quotas, Attendance rules, Exam components and Placement kinds are lists you edit.
6. Stay cycle (hostel only): academic session or rolling, monthly.
7. Press Save profile. A banner reminds you of unsaved changes.

If a menu item is missing, a message such as "This page is not switched on for this institution" says to switch the feature on here.

State and board

Open Institute > State and board.

1. Under State or union territory choose the state. By default the institution follows the organisation. Press Save state and board.
2. Choose the Board (for example CBSE, a state board, NCVT). Rules and grading of that board show under What this pack says.
3. Under Packs applied to this institution press Preview for a part (admission categories, holidays, grading, pass marks). It shows What would change. Press Apply to confirm. Applying only adds, never overwrites a date that already has a holiday.
4. Choose Holidays for this year or next.

The state also decides the professional tax slabs, labour welfare fund and the fee law. Most values are marked "verify". They are a starting point, not legal advice.

Common questions

Why is my menu different from another institution's?

Menus follow the profile and the person's role.

I changed the preset and lost my edits.

Applying a preset replaces the settings with its defaults. Change features one by one instead.
