We know that many times you find the courses and the groups within them repetitive. So that you don’t have to re-set them every time, the copy functionality is ready for you.
Copying courses and groups is mainly used to facilitate the process of moving on to a new period with your clients.
You can use copying at course and group level. When copying, you
always have the option to change the basic settings and also copy the
dates or registrations. You can use this functionality on any type of
course or group.
Copying course
To copy a course, do the following:
- In the course overview, click on the “Copy” button next to the specific course you wish to copyor after opening the course click on “Copy course”
- Then customize the name and select the options to suit your needs.
NOTE: The possibility to copy payment tamplates are only displayed if you are coping course with registration for the full course durantion and there are payment templates set.
Copying groups
In order to copy a group, do the following:
- in the selected group, click the “Copy” button.
- Then edit and select options according to your needs. Edit the name to a different one if you are copying a group to create a new one. Or keep the original name (just remove the “Copy” text) and copy the same group to the next billing period
- You may or may not change the Location, Lecturer, Group Capacity,
View in Online Registration, or Copy Payment Template Settings while
copying.
- Next, you can decide if you want to copy the dates as well. You can simply move them to a new first date, set a time change, or keep the same time and the new dates are simply created with a few clicks. You can also preview the new appointments and make sure everything is in order.
- When copying, you can also decide if you wish to copy the
registrations along with the group. This is usually done when copying a
group that wants to continue more or less unchanged in the next billing
period. If someone chooses not to continue, you simply delete their
individual registration.
Note: If you will be copying registrations along
with the group, be aware that this is a copy not a transfer. This means
that no credits, compensatory hours or payments will be transferred to
registrations. Registrations will have a new registration number created
with completely clean credit and payment information. In case you need
to move a client to another group and want to keep the payment or credit
details, you need to use the Move Client functionality, which can be found in the registration details.
