Kyle Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 Does anyone know how the colours work on the homepage timeline? Here we only get two colours, blue which is the timetabled lesson and a sort of grey for diary events. I noticed that on the green abbey test enviroment that there are several other colours. I am guessing that yellow is cover but i noticed green for on rota and also red for SLT Anybody know/explain how this works?
Kyle Posted October 18, 2013 Author Posted October 18, 2013 No one knows.....................oh dear!
fiza Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 You should specify with MIS you mean. I know its SIMS but others may not.
Kyle Posted October 19, 2013 Author Posted October 19, 2013 Ok fiza, good point. It is Sims I am referring to.
PhilNeal Posted October 20, 2013 Posted October 20, 2013 @Kyle, I think these colours are hard coded on the timeline. Yellow is cover. Diary entries also appear. From autumn, when someone is covering your class it will show who did it and also indicate room changes.
Kyle Posted October 21, 2013 Author Posted October 21, 2013 Thanks Phil, Do you have any idea on the red and green. I've seen this in the Green Abbey demo site. Have a look at Adrian Black homepage.
PhilNeal Posted October 22, 2013 Posted October 22, 2013 @Kyle hot from the product manager! Ivory - calendar Pale blue - timetabled class Aqua blue - non class code e.g. PPA time Green - cover rota Yellow - classes you are covering Red - supervising a detention Bright red - timetable clash From autumn Light fawn - your classes that have been covered Pale orange - your reason for absence
CAM Posted October 22, 2013 Posted October 22, 2013 Absence reasons will be visible to staff? I thought those notes were for Personnel's eyes only? Especially if Personnel decide to record sensitive information or notes in there.
CAM Posted October 23, 2013 Posted October 23, 2013 So pale orange won't appear at all? I'm not sure I get why reason for absence appears on the timeline if only the admin teams can see.
PhilNeal Posted October 23, 2013 Posted October 23, 2013 The reason for absence is the description recorded in the cover diary and it only shows on that person’s timeline, so therefore there are no worries that unauthorised staff can see personal or moral sapping information (Head going for interview etc.)
Kyle Posted October 23, 2013 Author Posted October 23, 2013 @PhilNeal Thanks for the update Phil. Off to investigate!
tben2505 Posted May 4, 2016 Posted May 4, 2016 @Kyle, I think these colours are hard coded on the timeline. Yellow is cover. Diary entries also appear.

Hi @PhilNeal - we're having issues with staff and their ability to check room changes - may I pick you up on your point here (admittedly from 2013!) regarding the timeline and room changes; are room changes which are done in cover illustrated on the timeline? If so are they supposed to be a different colour? Cheers T
tben2505 Posted May 4, 2016 Posted May 4, 2016 I've seen now that they are reflected in the timeline but not a different colour - that would be AMAZING if we could do that; is it possible?!
