Staff timetable issues

[rhyds]

A strange thing has happened in SIMS.net here, we have a Welsh teacher with the initals/staff code EWJ. The issue is her timetable has been allocated to a former teacher who's code was also EWJ. The teacher that's left is in the leavers, but the incorrectly allocated timetable shows up.

I've asked my LEA support for assistance, but they're swamped with PLASC returns all week.

Can you see two teachers with the code Rhyd? That's what usually happens with us - you just select the other one.

We have had similar problems here...

we just changed the proper teachers staff code in Personnel and also in Nova-T6 to something not used before and all seems ok now.

The problem is that it is our deputy head who does the timetabling, and he chose today to head off somewhere, I've changed the leaver's code so now it should be a case of re-setting the rest with T6.

The code has to be changed in 3 places

1. Nova - if you're using it
2. Personnel bit of sims
3. Focus, Personnel, Manage Classroom staff

Oddly a person can have a different staff code in personnel and classroom staff!

2 and 3 checked, nova is the issue, i'll get the DH to look tomorrow

If your DH has given the same code to someone in Nova then they'll have to change it back - Nova won't do it (is what I was told a couple of months ago from our joint LEA sims dude Rhyd)

I don't think we have codes clashing in nova, as everything was working swimmingly untill yesterday morning. The "wrong" EWJ has left so wasn't a part of the timetable at all.
