Subject

The subject is the object of the course. It is generally the reason you mobilize one or several resources in a time slot. It can be English, French or Mathematics but also Meeting, Interview, etc.

Establish the list of subjects

Import the subject into the database

If you have updated the data from STSWEB (STSWEB (import)), you have recovered the subjects. If you do not use STSWEB, you can import the subjects (Import the data in the base) or directly create them in the list.

Create generic subjects for the complex courses

Even if you have recovered the subjects from STSWEB, you must manually create the generic subjects (FL, Sciences, etc.) that will be used for the creation of the complex courses (Complex courses).

1. Go to the tab Timetable > Subjects >  List.
2. Click on the line Create a subject enter a designation and eventually a code while validating after every entry with the key [Enter].
