{{permissions|Detentions/Extra classes/Removals|Access to the detention/extra classes/removals section|Access to detentions/extra class/removal configuration}}

If you are going to place a pupil in [[Detentions|detention]], [[Removals|remove them from lesson]] or take an [[Extra classes|extra class]] then you should put the pupil in a timeslot. This allows PARS to create a register to track attendance and later analyse data using reports. You can use this feature in PARS to create, manage and schedule your timeslots. 

This page is accessed via: 
'''[[PARS main menu]] > [[Detentions and Removals| Detentions]] > Configure > Configure time types''' 
'''[[PARS main menu]] > [[Extra classes]] > Configure > Configure time types''' 
'''[[PARS main menu]] > [[Detentions and Removals| Removals]] > Configure > Configure time types''' 

==The configure timeslots page==

This page will show a list of the timeslots that have currently been configured. When staff put pupils into these timeslots, the timeslots will appear in the same order as they do on this page. You can reorder the timeslots by selecting them individually and click the Move up or Move down buttons. Alternatively, you can click on the column headers to order all of the timeslots by that column. 

[[Image:conftimeslots01.jpg]] 

==Adding and editing timeslots==
To create a new timeslot, click the "Add" button from the top toolbar. Alternatively, you can edit an existing timeslot by first selecting the timeslot and then clicking the "Edit" button from the top toolbar. 

[[Image:timeslots1.jpg|left]]

'''Code''' 
This should be an abbreviation of the name of the timeslot and must be unique. This is only used by our programmers to create [[Slip designer|slips to inform parents]] of detentions, removals or extra classes. 

'''Maximum pupils per slot''' 
The maximum number of pupils allowed in this timeslot at one time. 

'''Requires printed slip''' 
This gives you the option to [[Slip designer|print a slip]] to inform parents that their pupils will be in this timeslot. 

'''Schedule only timeslot''' 
The timeslot will '''only''' be available on days for which it has been scheduled. 

'''Default to personal''' 
When adding pupils to this timeslot, the Personal option will be selected by default. This means that the person who adds the pupils to this timeslot will be responsible for registering and monitoring those pupils and (depending upon [[List of permissions|permissions]]) will be the only person who is able to see and deal with this timeslot.

You can have multiple instances of personal timeslots happening at once e.g. there might be 5 teacher detentions happening at one time. Non-personal detentions, such as SLT detentions, cannot have multiple instances as all pupils go into the same timeslot together. 

 

==Scheduling timeslots==

Timeslots should be scheduled to set the days on which they are available for use. To schedule a timeslot, select it and then click the "Calendarise" button from the top toolbar. 

You should choose a start and end date - these are the earliest and latest dates that the timeslot can be used. Also choose a start and end time; this sets the time that the timeslot will run. 

Next choose which days of the week the timeslot will run on. There is a tickbox to exclude holidays - using this means PARS will never schedule a timeslot on non-school days (as taken from your SIMS timetable). Finally you can define a default teacher and/or room if required. 

[[Image:timeslots2.jpg]] 

Once a timeslot has been scheduled, you can click the arrow to the left of its name to see a breakdown of the scheduling. You will be able to see one row per date where the timeslot is available, as well as the default teacher and room if these have been set. If the timeslot has already taken place, you will also be able to see how many pupils were supposed to attend the timeslot. 

[[Image:schedule02.jpg]] 

==Deleting and hiding timeslots==

If a timeslot has never been used you can delete it by selected the timeslot and then clicking the "Delete" button from the top toolbar. 
If you try to delete a timeslot that has been used, PARS will tell you "The time type cannot be deleted" 

If this is the case you might want to disable the timeslot so that it cannot be used again. To do this, select the timeslot and then click the "Activate" button. A timeslot that has been disabled will have a tick in the "Hidden" column: 

[[Image:hiddentimeslot.jpg]]

==Restrict usage==

Like many things in PARS, timeslots can be restricted so that only certain staff may use them. To do this, select the timeslot that you want to restrict, then click the "Restrict usage" button from the top toolbar. This will open a window where you can choose which staff members are allowed to use this timeslot. 

Tick any staff members that should be able to use this timeslot. If no staff members are selected then all staff will be allowed to use the timeslot. 

[[Image:restrictusage1.jpg]] 

==Import exams (Extra classes only)==

When configuring timeslots for [[Extra classes]] you will notice an extra icon in the top toolbar - Import Exams. 

[[Image:exclasstimeslot01.jpg]] 

If you click this button, PARS will create extra classes to match your exam setup. You can then click the "Import members" to choose a file from your computer. The file must show either the UPN or PERSON_ID of the pupils, and can also show the start and end dates. 

The first column of the file must show either {UPN} or {PERSON_ID} on the first row, then the numbers for each pupil on subsequent. Optionally, the second column can show {START_DATE} as the column header, then the start date for each pupil. The third column can show {END_DATE} as the column header then the end date for each pupil. 

Example 

{UPN},{START_DATE} 
U823432111005,01/05/2016 
U823432111005,03/05/2016 
U823432111005,03/05/2016 
U823432111005,04/05/2016

Behaviour preferences

2022-01-28T14:17:01Z

Admin: /* Miscellaneous */

{{permissions|Behaviour|Access ___ behaviour incidents|Configure behaviour schemes}}

Behaviour preferences will apply to all users in PARS. Once you have made any changes to behaviour preferences, you should log out of PARS and back in again for them to take effect. 

Behaviour preferences can be accessed via: 
'''[[PARS main menu]] > [[Behaviour]] > Configure > Behaviour preferences''' 

=Setup=

==Titles==

Positive, negative and neutral behaviour incidents can all be given alternative names to match the terminology you use. Some schools have "Credit(s) and Sanction(s)" or "Red card(s) and Green card(s)" as part of their behaviour policy. These words will be used in place of Merit(s) and Demerit(s) in PARS.

There are two fields per behaviour type, one for singular use and one for plural.

[[Image:titles1.jpeg]]

==Attendance based behaviour==

These preferences take effect when adding a behaviour incident to multiple pupils via a [[Register]]. To do this, click on the merit or demerit [[Register#What do the columns on the register screen mean?|column header]] to add a behaviour incident for multiple pupils.

[[Image:attendancebased.jpg]]

'''Bulk student selection begins blank''' 
Initially no students will be selected. 

'''Bulk student selection based on physical Register attendance''' 
All pupils who are physically present will be selected. 

'''Bulk student selection based on statistical Register attendance''' 
All pupils who are statistically present will be selected. 

'''Count L-code as absent''' 
When selecting pupils based on statistical attendance (see previous preference), do late pupils count as present or absent?

 

==SIMS link==
Behaviour incidents can be written back to your SIMS database if required, or they can be stored in PARS only. Please note that writing an incident back to SIMS takes ~2 seconds whereas writing a behaviour incident back to PARS only takes ~0.1 seconds. When saving large numbers of incidents, this can have noticeable effect on performance.

[[Image:SIMSlink2.1.jpg]]

 

'''Create a SIMS Attainment/Behaviour for initial Merit/Demerit''' 
This enables PARS to write behaviour incidents back to SIMS. You must choose more settings below. 

'''Send Merits / Send Demerits''' 
Define whether to send positive, negative or all incidents. If neither are ticked, no incidents will be copied to SIMS. 

'''Hide Behaviour details from comments when SIMS match found''' 
The Ground and Outcome of incidents copied to SIMS will be stored in the comments section, unless there are Types and Outcomes in SIMS that exactly match the names of the Ground and Outcome in PARS. If this option is ticked then PARS will attempt to save using the appropriate Type and Outcome in SIMS, instead of recording the details as a comment. 

'''Defer SIMS writing to automation''' 
Saving behaviour incidents back to SIMS will not happen when the user saves a behaviour incident, but will be done in bulk overnight by the [[Automation]] module. This is useful because it reduces the amount of time needed to save [[Behaviour]] incidents for staff. 

'''Default status for SIMS behaviour''' 
Behaviour incidents in SIMS have a status of either "Resolved" or "Unresolved". The status selected in this preference will be used for all behaviour incidents written from PARS back to SIMS. 

==Comment entry rules==

[[Image:commententryrules.jpg|left]]

'''Require ground comment''' 
Forces the user to input a ground comment when adding a behaviour incident 
'''Require outcome comment''' 
Forces the user to input an outcome comment when adding a behaviour incident 
'''Require support comment''' 
Forces the user to input a support comment when adding a behaviour incident 

''We do not advise that you use these three settings, as they force staff members to enter a comment every single time they try to add a behaviour incident. This can make the system feel clunky and onerous. Instead, certain Grounds and Outcomes (usually the more serious ones) can force users to enter comments.''

 

'''Check Spelling?''' 
This will give an option to spell check any ground and outcome comments when saving a behaviour incident. 
'''Merit comment not required''' 
If any of the 'require ground/outcome/support comment' preferences are enabled then this will override the rule for a Merit incident - therefore comments for Merit incidents will not be required. 
'''Demerit comment not required''' 
As above - comments for Demerit incidents will not be required. 
'''Neutral comment not required''' 
As above - comments for Neutral incidents will not be required. 
'''Cash-in comment not required''' 
As above - comments for Cash-in incidents will not be required. 

==Miscellaneous==

[[Image:miscprefs.jpg]]

'''Warn on failed referrals''' 
If a staff type is selected as a referral and there is no corresponding staff member to send the referral to, alert the user when they save the behaviour incident. A typical example is referring incidents to Form Tutors and Form Supervisors; not every form may have a supervisor. 

'''Default to demerit''' 
A demerit is the default selection whenever a [[Add a behaviour incident|behaviour incident is recorded]], if unticked a merit is the default selection. 

'''Notify the originator when an incident is edited''' 
This will send a [[Homepage#Notices|Notice]] to the member of staff who initially recorded a [[Add a behaviour incident|behaviour incident]] whenever that incident is edited. 

'''House points are ON by default''' 
When adding a behaviour incident, the tick box to also issue [[House points]] will automatically be ticked. There is a [[Permissions| permission]] that affects whether or not users can tick/untick this box themselves. 

'''Maximum points per incident (+/-)''' 
Limit the maximum number of merit/demerit points that can be added at one time. Enter the absolute value for the maximum number of points. 

'''Cancel email/SMS''' 
If a [[Add a behaviour incident|behaviour incident]] is referred to members of staff, then a message can automatically be sent to them if that behaviour incident is deleted. PARS will use the same method of communication (SMS or Email) to contact the staff member as was originally used when referring the incident to them. 

'''Include grounds comment on referral messages to parents''' 
When behaviour referrals are sent to parents, should the comments written by staff be included in the email sent to the parent. 

'''Use legal names for students in referral messages''' 
This will use the student's legal name in referral messages to parents regardless of any other legal/chosen name preferences set elsewhere 

==Selection defaults for categories==

[[Image:categoryprefs3.jpg]]

'''Hide "All Grounds Category"''' 
This hides the "All Grounds" category, which is a behaviour category that contains every single ground. 

'''Do not use default category''' 
When adding a behaviour incident, by default no category will selected. Staff members will always need to choose a category when adding a behaviour incident. 

'''Default merit category''' 
If "Do not use default category" is not selected, the category chosen here will be pre-selected whenever a merit is added. There is a separate option for behaviour incidents added via the [[assignment diary]]. 

'''Default demerit category''' 
If "Do not use default category" is not selected, the category chosen here will be pre-selected whenever a demerit is added. There is a separate option for behaviour incidents added via the [[assignment diary]]. 

'''Default neutral category''' 
If "Do not use default category" is not selected, the category chosen here will be pre-selected whenever a neutral behaviour incident is added. There is a separate option for behaviour incidents added via the [[assignment diary]]. 

==Selection defaults for outcomes==

[[Image:outcomeprefs1.jpg]]

'''Hide "No Outcome Decided"''' 
This hides the "No Outcome Decided" outcome, meaning staff must choose one of the outcomes you have configured. 

'''Do not use default outcome''' 
When adding a behaviour incident, by default no outcome will selected. Staff members will always need to choose an outcome when adding a behaviour incident. 

'''Default merit outcome''' 
If "Do not use default outcome" is not selected, the outcome chosen here will be pre-selected whenever a merit is added. There is a separate option for behaviour incidents added via the [[assignment diary]]. 

'''Default demerit outcome''' 
If "Do not use default outcome" is not selected, the outcome chosen here will be pre-selected whenever a demerit is added. There is a separate option for behaviour incidents added via the [[assignment diary]]. 

=Entry rules=

[[Image:entryrules01.jpg]] 

Use these options to limit the number and type of behaviour incidents that can be [[Add a behaviour incident|recorded]] in each lesson.
First tick the "Limit per lesson" tickbox then choose one of the following:

Set the "Amount" (X) then choose:

'''X per student''' 
X merits or demerits of any type can be added to each pupil in each lesson. 

'''X per ground per issuer''' 
X of each type of ground can be awarded in each lesson, per member of staff. 

'''X per category per issuer''' 
X of each type of category can be awarded in each lesson, per member of staff. 

'''X per issuer''' 
X incidents can be issued per staff member in each lesson. 

'''Specific number incidents per ground per issuer'''* 
Each ground has a specific number of times it can be used in each lesson. This limit applies to the whole class and each teacher gets their own 'allowance'. 

'''Specific number incidents per ground per issuer per student'''* 
Each ground has a specific number of times it can be used in each lesson. This limit applies separately to each pupil and each teacher gets their own 'allowance'. 

''* The last two rules do not use the "Limit per lesson" setting from the top of the page, instead using a separate limit for each ground. When you select either of these settings you will be able to set limits on the number of times each ground can be used.'' 

'''Allow override''' 
This will warn the user when one of these rules are being broken but will still allow the merit/demerit to be saved.

PARS can generate reports for parents e.g. End of Term Reports, or Progress Reports, which are created by our technicians and match school design specifications. For examples of slips and reports that have been designed for other schools, see [[customised reports|this page]]. 

This page is used to import the designs sent to school by our programmers so that reports can be printed at a later date. 

=Submitting a design to be created=

The process of creating a student review design will typically take approximately two weeks from the submission of the design and a valid [[OUTPUT.XML]] until a first draft is sent to you. In most cases the first draft will need several revisions to account for anomalies in your data and layout that may not be obvious until the first draft is seen. '''You should allow at LEAST one month from the point that all of the data requested below are sent until the report is ready to print'''. 

Before submitting a design please add the [[Default slip]] and check that it contains the data you wish to see on the report. The [[Default slip]] will usually need to be referred to multiple times during the creation of a new review design. 

'''Here is a checklist of what is needed when submitting a design. Work cannot commence if any part is missing or incomplete: 

=== A mockup of how you would like the final report to look. ===

*This could be a Word document or Image file and should resemble the final report as closely as possible. If it is an image file then a list of fonts and font sizes is needed.
*It should include any images (logos etc) and layout.
*'''Each column or other grade/comment container on the mock up should show which grade element code is to appear in that column (see below).'''
*Where multiple columns use the same grade element code, or where the same code is reused multiple times each year, the exact Result Set, EV_INST_ID or Date range should be included. These can be found by using the [[Default slip]]. 

=== A list of grade element codes to be used on the report ===

*The grade element codes are visible on the [[configure grading elements]] screen in the left hand column.
*If there are multiple grade element codes that are all used in the same column and all share a similar code (e.g. an "Effort" column should contain grades with codes EFF_EN, EFF_MA, EFF_SCI etc) then only the shared part of the code is needed (in this case "EFF_").
*If the grade element is scheduled multiple times in a year then a way to distinguish the correct grades for each time period is needed. Refer back to the [[Default slip]] to find out what should be used, it will either be the EV_INST_ID, the DATE or part of the SIMSDETAIL fields. Please include the correct information for each period in the submission. For SIMS grades the SIMSDETAIL is the one that is needed, but only the part that is common to all grades in a particular column.

'''There is NO NEED to include every single grade element code where multiple codes all share a common set of letters.'''

[[image:ExampleSubmission.PNG]]

''EFF_* means "the codes in the column all start with EFF_" so there is no need to enter every EFF_ code. You can save a LOT of time by following this particular suggestion. Any exceptions to the rule (e.g. a subject that contains two different EFF_ grade codes and only one should be used) should be mentioned.'' 

Please always refer to each subject by the actual name as it appear in PARS, SIMS and in the output.xml. E.g. if a special rule is requested for Mathematics but this appears throughout the software as "Maths" then the rule will not work.

=== A list of rules required on report===

Each student review design has a section at the top to hide or rename certain subjects and to select the correct grade element codes, usually a number of other rules are required. The exact details of how these work are required. 

Here are some examples of rules you may need:
*Hide the effort column for pupils in year 11.
*If a student is in class 10A/En1, add an extra row for English Literature using grade element codes A, B and C.
*If a student is found to have a grade with code ABC_123 in Year 11 Science, remove the row for Science and extra rows for Bio, Chem and Phys using grade element codes (etc).
*If a subject has no grades hide the row for that subject or insert N/A for the grade.
*Colour code the grades in column X by comparing them to the grades in column Y based on these scores "A=1, B=2 etc" and these criteria for each colour (Red = X<Y, Amber = X=Y, Green = X>Y).
*If attendance is <95%, colour the cell containing the attendance red. 

=== Images ===

Any images (school logos etc) to be included on the report should be hosted on a web server and be accessible via the internet from outside the school. The images should be resized to the size required on the final report. Please provide URLs to any images that are required. 

=== An [[OUTPUT.XML]] file containing the relevant grades===

This is the data file that your report will be based on. See the [[OUTPUT.XML]] page for information on how to create this file.

Contacting parents

2019-11-05T10:44:11Z

Admin:

PARS can be used to contact parents for a variety of different reasons. Messages can be sent to parents as Emails, Letters or SMS messages. You can also type the details of telephone calls or meetings into PARS. All of this information is automatically stored in the PARS contact log for each student, and can also be written back to the SIMS Communication Log if desired. 

=Accessing the External Contact screen=

There are a variety of reasons you may want to contact parents from PARS. The External Contact page is always used to send the messages, but the method for accessing the External Contact page changes, depending on the reason you are contacting parents. 

The following '''[[permissions]]''' are required to access the External Contact page: 
''Contact management > Access notices management screen'' (On) 
''Contact management > Manage and review external communications'' (On) 

==For General Messages==

The page is simply accessed via: 
'''Main Menu > Contact Management > External contact''' 

You can also click the External Contact button on the Quick Launch Bar at the top of PARS. 
[[Image:quick_launch_external_contact.jpg]] 

The External Contact page can also be accessed via the '''Contacts''' tab of the '''[[Pupil information]]''' page. When using this method you will only be able to type the details of a conversation or meeting you have had with a parent. The Pupil Information page is accessed via the PARS quick launch bar: 
[[Image:quick_launch_pupil_information.jpg]] 

==For Absence==

You should use the '''[[Attendance view|Attendance View]]''' page to identify the absent students (see the Attendance View page for instructions to do this). You would then click '''Contact > External Contact''' on the Attendance View page. 

==For Behaviour Incidents==

This is to contact parents about individual behaviour incidents i.e. contact all the parents of students who received a Head Teacher's Award this week; contact all the parents of students who received a C4 today; etc. Parents receive one message per behaviour incident and the messages can include information about the behaviour incidents, such as the grounds or the comments. 

The '''[[Edit behaviour incidents|Edit Behaviour Incidents]]''' page is used to select the behaviour incidents for which you will contact parents (see the Edit Behaviour Incidents page for instructions to do this). You would then click the '''External Contact''' button on the Edit Behaviour Incidents page. 

==For Detentions==

This is to contact parents about specific detentions. The messages sent to parents can include information such as the reason that the detention was given, or the date and time it is going to take place. 

The '''[[Edit scheduled detentions|Edit Scheduled Detentions]]''' page is used to select the detentions for which you will contact parents (see the Edit Scheduled Detentions page for instructions to do this). You would then click the '''External Contact''' button on the Edit Scheduled Detentions page. 

==For Assignments (Homework)==

You can contact parents about a homework assignment, either to notify the parents and/or students that homework has been set (and email any attachments). Alternatively, you can notify the parents of students who have not completed the homework. 

Open the '''[[Assignment diary|Assignment Diary]]''' and select the Assignment, then click the '''External Contact''' button. See the Assignment Diary page for more information. 

==For Low Attendance==

You first need to run an Attendance Report to identify the students with low attendance (e.g. lower than 85%). '''Attendance Summaries > Individual Percentages > Selected Individual Session Attendance''' is a good report for this purpose. 

Attendance Reports are accessed via: 
'''Main Menu > Attendance > Attendance Reports''' 

The report then needs to be filtered to show only those students with less than a certain percentage attendance. The '''[[Reports]]''' page explains how to filter reports. Once the report is filtered click the '''External Contact''' button at the top of the report. 

=Using the External Contact Screen=

==Batch send messages / batch generate letters==

Click the generate batch button at the top left of the page. You will be taken to a new page with 3 tabs.

===Stage 1===
[[Image:external_contact_batch_stage1.jpg|thumb|The Stage 1 tab when batch sending messages]]

''Note:''
*''Please click the Check Credits button in this screen BEFORE attempting to send a batch SMS to parents'' 

On the left side of the page, you will see a list of students whose parents are to be contacted. Deselect any students whose parents you do not want to contact. 

In the middle column select the type of person you are going to contact. There are four options:
* Students 
''Contact the students themselves. Emails will be sent to their 'work' email addresses (as set in SIMS)''
* Priority 1 contact with Parental responsibility 
''Contact people who are both priority 1 and have parental responsibility''
* Priority 1 contact regardless of Parental responsibility 
''Contact people who are priority 1''
* All contacts with Parental responsibility 
''Contact people who have responsibility'' 

On the right side of the page select the method you wish to use to send your messages. Some of the options include the phrase '''falling back to'''. In these cases, the second method will only be used if the recipient does not have any details to use for the first method e.g. When SMS falling back to email is selected, parents will only receive an email if they do not have an SMS number in SIMS. 

''Note:'' 
*''There are some settings that will affect the options shown on this tab. If some options appear to be different or missing, see the [[#Frequently Asked Questions|Frequently Asked Questions section of this page]].''
*''If a parent has multiple email addresses, only their '''Main''' email address will be used.'' 

===Stage 2===

This tab will check that, for each student, there is a person in SIMS who can be contacted based on the options selected on the previous tab. 

Each student will be listed and any valid contacts (according to their Priority Number and Parental Responsibility) will be shown next to the student. Students are highlighted in red if they cannot be contacted for any reason. 

[[Image:external_contact_batch_stage2.jpg]] 

*If a student has a contact with a Court Order, the contact's name will appear with a warning symbol. By default contacts with Court Orders will not be contacted. See Archie Ansell above.
*If a student does not have any contacts with valid Priority and/or Parental Responsibility, then no names will appear next to the student's name. See Adrienne Frost above.
*If a student has a valid contact but that contact does not have appropriate contact details (e.g. no SMS number or no email address) then the contact's name will appear with a black icon. See Hilda Boson above. 

===Stage 3===

This tab is used to enter the message that will be sent. If you have messages saved in the message bank, dropdowns will appear allowing you to select these messages. Click the relevant button (Email, SMS or Letter) to edit your template message or manually compose a message. 

''For instructions to add messages to the message bank, see the [[#Message Banks|Message Bank section of this page]]''. 

After clicking the SMS, Email or Letter buttons, a Compose Message window will open. You can add merge fields to your message by clicking '''Insert > Field > ...''' 
When sending emails or SMS messages, there is a '''Send at''' field which is used to delay sending the messages until a later time. This can be useful when sending large volumes of emails. When sending Emails you will see an additional tab to add attachments to your email. Every recipient will receive the same attachment(s). 

If your letter includes General Attendance or General Behaviour merge fields, a '''Range button''' will appear on the top toolbar. This button is used to select the date range from which the attendance data will be gathered. 

When sending a letter there is an option to Upload a copy of the letter to the student's linked documents in SIMS. 

Click the '''Generate''' button at the top left of the screen to send your messages or download your letters. 

==Sending single messages and recording phone calls==

[[Image:external_contact_page.jpg|thumb|The External Contact page]]

The External Contact screen has two 'modes'; the normal External Contact screen and the Batch Sending screen. If you can see three tabs labelled "Stage 1", "Stage 2" and "Stage 3 you are on the Batch Sending screen. Click '''Close''' at the top right to access the normal External Contact screen. 

You will see a list of students on the left side of the page. The External Contact page shows the details of one student (and their parents) at a time. Click on a student's name on the left to view that student's details. 

The student's details are listed on the left side of the page, such as the student's email address and the student's mobile telephone number. These details are taken from Section 3 and Section 4 of the Student Details page in SIMS. On the right, the student's parents' details are displayed. This information is taken from Section 5 of the Student Details page in SIMS. 

===Send single message===

To send a message, find the email address or mobile telephone number you want to use and click the '''Email''' or '''SMS''' button next to it. This will open a window where you can compose your message. You can access the message bank by clicking '''Insert > Template'''. Click '''Send''' when finished. 

===Record meetings or phone calls===

For telephone calls, find the telephone number that was used then click the '''Call''' button next to it. A window will appear in which you can type the details of your phone call. There is a '''Contact type''' dropdown near the top of the window. This is used to record whether the call was successful, or whether there was no answer, a voicemail was left, etc. 

For meetings click the '''Ad-Hoc''' button next to the contact's name. A window will appear where you can type the details of the meeting. 

When recording either meetings or telephone calls, there is an option to record the information as '''Private'''. When information is recorded as private, only the staff member that recorded the information and people with the following permission will be able to view it: 
''Contact management > User can view external contacts set to private'' 

When recording meetings and telephone calls most information will be recorded on the contact log. This includes the date, time, the name of the staff member recording the information, the person contacted and the student. In the case of telephone calls, the telephone number is also recorded. If a telephone call or meeting has been recorded as Private then the '''Log Confidentiality''' in SIMS will be set to "Private", in any other case "Public" will be used. 

==View contact log==

All emails, SMS messages and letters sent by PARS are automatically recorded on the student's contact log. Any telephone calls and meetings are also recorded on the contact log. 

There '''Contact History''' and '''History Report''' buttons are used to access a student's contact log. 

Contact History shows a summary of contacts made, but to see the details of each contact you must click the '''view button''' (this is the button that looks like a sheet of paper). This report is easier to read at a glance but requires more clicks to see the details of a message. The Contact History report can also be used to edit and delete items from the contact log, using the pencil and cross buttons. 

The History Report shows all information from the contact log. It is not possible to view the details of letters using this report. Items on the contact log cannot be edited or deleted using this report. 

There are two other methods for accessing the contact log outside of the External Contact page. Contact Reports are available via: 
'''Main menu > Contact management > [[Contact reports]]''' 
''Note the '''[[permissions]]''' needed to access Contact Reports are:'' 
''Contact management > Access notices management screen'' (On) 
''Contact management > Report on contacts made'' (On) 

An individual student's contact log can also be viewed in the '''[[Pupil information|Pupil Information]]''' screen. This is accessed by clicking the '''Pupil Information''' button on the PARS quick launch bar. 

[[Image:quick_launch_pupil_information.jpg]] 

=Configuration=

==Emails==

===SMTP details===

In order to send emails, PARS needs to be given the SMTP details of your email server. These settings are entered into PARS via: 
'''Main menu > System management > Preferences > Email''' 

At the bottom of this section, there is a Send Test Email link which you can use to test the details you have entered. We cannot tell you what these details are; if you do not know your SMTP details, you must find them yourself. 

===Sending rate===

Emails in PARS are sent by the PARSKeepAliveService, which is a Windows Service that runs on the IIS server hosting PARS. There are various settings in PARS that instruct the KeepAlive service to send emails at a certain rate. This is important as many ISPs and email providers impose sending limits on emails, such as 30 emails per minute, or 500 emails per day. 

The settings that control the rate of emails sent from PARS are accessed via: 
'''Main menu > System management > Preferences > Email''' 

The relevant settings are: 
'''Number of emails send per time span''' 
'''Time span for email sending in seconds''' 
'''When an email fails number of minutes to wait before retrying (Important queue)''' 
'''When an email fails number of minutes to wait before retrying''' 
'''When an email fails number retries''' 

The top two settings are the most important as these control the rate of emails sent from PARS. If an email fails to send for any reason, PARS will attempt to resend it if instructed to do so, according to the final three settings. 

===Email replies===

By default email replies will be sent to the From Address listed in the '''Email Preferences''' (Main menu > System management > Preferences > Email). If you would like users to receive email replies to their own email address instead, each user will need the following '''[[permissions|permission]]''' enabled: 

''Contact management > Use own email address as email reply address if available'' (On) 

==SMS==

===SMS Account===

To send SMS messages, you must have an account with TextAnywhere and enter those account details into PARS. If the details have not been entered into PARS you will not be able to select SMS as a method of contact. 

The details of your TextAnywhere account are entered into PARS via: 
'''Main menu > Contact management > Configure > Configure SMS''' 

Clicking the '''here''' link on the Configure SMS page will take you to TextAnywhere's website. 

===SMS replies===

Replies to SMS messages will be sent as emails. The reply emails can be sent to a central email address, to the person that sent the SMS, or both. To decide where the replies will be sent, go to 

'''Main menu > System management > System > Automation''' 
''Note - to access this screen you need the following permissions:'' 
''Automation > Access automation control'' (On) 
''Automation > Setup automation jobs'' (On) 
''System management > Access PARS management options'' (On) 

Click on the '''Jobs''' tab at the top of the page. You will see a list of the automatic tasks that PARS performs. Look for a row on this page called '''Check for, and send outstanding batch SMS messages'''. Click the Magnifying Glass next to this row. 

Enable the '''Email originator''' option for the sender of the SMS messages to receive replies to their email inbox. 
Enable the '''Email this address''' option for email replies to be sent to a central email address. You will also need to enter the email address you want to use. 

The '''Add details of SMS's''' option should be enabled. Also, make sure that every day of the week is ticked. Once done, click '''OK'''. 

==Message Banks==

PARS allows the use of Message Banks so that you can pre-configure message templates to be used on the External Contact page. 

The Message Banks are accessed via: 
'''Main menu > Contact management > Configure > Email / SMS / Letter message bank''' 
''Note to access these screens you need the following permissions:'' 
''Contact management > Access notices management screen'' (On) 
''Contact management > Allow access to contact management comment bank'' (On) 

All existing message templates will appear on the screen. Click the '''Add''' button to create a new message template. 

A Compose Message window will open in which you can type your message. You can add merge fields to your message by clicking '''Insert > Field > ...''' 
Images can be added to Email or Letter templates by clicking '''Insert > Image'''. 

==Writing to the SIMS Communication Log==

PARS will automatically store all communications in the PARS Contact Log. This information can also be copied to the SIMS Communication Log if desired. For this to happen you need to enable the following preference: 

'''Main menu > System management > Preferences > External contact > Add copy of contact history to SIMS contact log''' 

=Frequently Asked Questions=

==One or more of my templates are not available when composing a message==

This will happen if your template contains merge fields that are not valid for the type of message you are sending. For example, your template may contain the merge field <nowiki>{{TYPE}}</nowiki>. This field refers to the type of detention that a pupil has been given. Therefore it does not make sense to use this template message unless you are sending a message about detentions. 

So if your template is not available, it is for one of the two following reasons: 
*You have an incorrect merge field in your template. Edit the template and remove the offending merge field(s). See the [[#Message Banks|Message Banks section of this page]] for information regarding the configuration of Message Bank templates.
*You are accessing the External Contact page using the wrong method. See the [[#Accessing the External Contact screen|Accessing the External Contact screen section of this page]] for further instructions. 

==Some options are missing from the Stage 1 tab when sending a batch message==

You may find that some options are missing from either the Recipients section or the Method section. 

'''Recipients''' 
[[Image:external_contact_batch_contacts.jpg|thumb|The Recipient options when sending a batch message]]

Up to four options can be shown in this section. Your permissions define which options are shown here. "Students" will always be visible in the Recipients section. This option is used to contact the students themselves. The additional three options are controlled by permissions. 

'''Priority 1 contact with Parental responsibility''' 
The '''[[permission]]''' needed to access this option is: 
''Contact management > User can contact highest priority parent'' (On) 

'''Priority 1 contact regardless of Parental responsibility''' 
The '''[[permission]]''' needed to access this option is: 
''Contact management > User can contact highest priority contacts'' (On) 

'''All contacts with Parental responsibility''' 
The '''[[permission]]''' needed to access this option is: 
''Contact management > User can contact all parents'' (On) 

'''Method''' 
[[Image:external_contact_batch_method.jpg|thumb|The Method options when sending a batch message]]

The Letter option will always be available. Any of the options involving Email or SMS may be hidden for the following reasons. 

'''Email''' - The user does not have sufficient permissions 
The '''[[permission]]''' needed to access this option is: 
''Contact management > Prevents user from sending emails'' (Off) 

'''SMS''' - The user does not have sufficient permissions 
The '''[[permission]]''' needed to access this option is: 
''Contact management > Prevents user from sending SMS messages'' (Off) 

'''SMS''' - PARS has not been given the details of your TextAnywhere account, used to send emails 
You need to create an account with TextAnywhere and enter the account details into PARS to send SMS messages. See the [[#SMS Account|SMS Account section of this page]] for more information.

Server migration

2019-10-31T15:46:00Z

Admin: /* Transferring the SIMS SQL .mdf and .ldf files (i.e. the database files) to a new server. */

=Migrating the SIMS server (SQL)=

If you are migrating SIMS to a new server this can refer to one or both of these jobs: 

==Transferring the SIMS SQL .mdf and .ldf files (i.e. the database files) to a new server.==

# Migrate SIMS to the new SQL server
# Make copies of the PARS .mdf and .ldf files on your existing SQL server
# On the PARS IIS server, change the connect.ini for SIMS so it refers to the new SQL server
# Run a PARS version update on the PARS IIS server. You will need to enter the sa password for the new SQL server. This will create a blank PARS db on the new SQL server
# On the new server, find the location of the PARS db files by right clicking on the db then: properties > files > path column
# Stop SQL on the new server (in management studio, right click and Stop)
# Copy the files from #2 into the directory from #5
# Restart SQL (right click and Start)
# Run another PARS version update on the IIS server

==Transferring the contents of the shared SIMS folder to a new file server.==

The SIMS file server hosts the shared SIMS folder. In many cases the s:\ is mapped to a shared network location containing the shared SIMS folder. Within this folder are various files important to PARS and PARS Connect. Transferring the contents of the shared SIMS folder (in particular SIMS\PARS) and ensuring your workstations have their [[SIMS.ini]] updated (if required) is all that is needed for PARS to remain functional. 

==PLEASE NOTE==

If you previously used 'PUPIL SCAN' in PARS, you will be required to rebuild the Pupil scan database on your new SQL server as per the link below.
 
http://www.tascsoftware.co.uk/wiki/PARS_Connect/index.php?title=Pupil_scan
 

=Migrating the PARS server (IIS)=

To migrate PARS to a new server, simply follow the steps on the [[Installation]] page as if you were installing PARS from afresh. When you are ready, you can remove the old instance of PARS by:
#Stopping the PARS website in IIS Manager
#Stopping the PARSConnectKeepAlive process via Task Manager
#Removing the PARS website via IIS manager
#Deleting the PARS folder, usually found via C:\inetpub\wwwroot\PARS

Service pack

2019-10-09T07:53:45Z

Admin: /* Software Requirements */

The PARS Service Pack is used to install PARS and to perform version updates. This must be performed on the IIS server that is hosting or is going to host PARS. Users will be kicked out of PARS when the Service Pack is run. 

=Prerequisites before installing PARS=

==TASC infrstructure test==

A program must be run to test the network infrastructure prior to installing PARS. The program will test the number of times that the SQL server can create, amend and delete SIMS Lookups in a 5 minute period. This will indicate the SQL performance of SIMS, which is vital to PARS. 

The results of the infractructure test will automatically be sent to the TASC support team, who will contact you if the tests indicate a cause for concern. The infrastructure test program is available here: 
'''[http://www.tascsoftware.co.uk/wiki/PARS_Connect/files/TASC%20infrastructure%20test.exe TASC Infractructure Test]''' 

Once you have downloaded the .exe file, place it in the SIMS.net folder of the IIS server on which PARS will be installed. If you do not yet have an IIS server ready for this purpose then you can also use a regular SIMS workstation (an IIS server is preferable if possible). 

Run the .exe file from within the SIMS.net folder. You will be prompted to enter a SIMS username and password - the account used should have administrator access within SIMS. The test will take 5 minutes to run and will then atempt to post the results of the test to the TASC Software Support Team. If this is not successful you will need to email the results of the test to sales@tascsoftware.co.uk 

==Hardware Requirements==
'''*Do not install PARS on your SIMS SQL server*'''

===Minimum Spec===

*4 Cores
*8 - 16gb Ram
*64bit OS (2012 preferably)
*IIS7 or above
*1000mb NIC 

===Recommended Spec===

*8 Cores
*32gb Ram
*OS server 2012
*1000mb NIC 

==Software Requirements==

The server hosting PARS must have the following:
*Windows Server 2008 Web Edition (or above)
*IIS7 (or above)
*Microsoft.Net Framework 4.8
*SIMS Workstation Components 
''NOTE: It is important that on the IIS server the order of installation is Windows -> Webserver software -> .net software'' 
''NOTE: PARS is dependent on a valid SIMS.INI file and cannot function in the absence of or corrupted SIMS.INI file in the windows folder.'' 

===IIS7 / IIS7.5===

Web Server
: Common HTTP Features
:: Static Content

===IIS8===

:Add ASP.net 4.5
:All other options can be left as their default. 

=Downloading the Service Pack=

Download the latest PARS Service Pack from our website, [http://www.tascsoftware.co.uk/web/support/_downloads.aspx www.tascsoftware.co.uk]. You will need to have your helpdesk login details available for this. If you have forgotten your login details, or have never had an account, you can contact us using our [http://www.tascsoftware.co.uk/web/contact.aspx website contact page]. Alternatively, you can call us on 01902 824281. 

When you have logged into our website, you will see a list of available downloads. PARS Connect and PARS .Net updates are both contained in the PARS service pack. 

{| class="wikitable"
|[[Image:downloads2.jpg|800px]]
|} 

=Installing or Updating (running the Service Pack)=

Once you have downloaded the latest Service Pack, run it on the IIS server. A window will open - follow the steps below to install or update PARS Connect. 

==Prerequisites==

This tab will check that you have the required prerequisites in order to install or update PARS. If any components are missing, install them then rerun the PARS Service Pack. 

[[Image:prequisites.jpg|800px]] 

==Application==

This tab allows you to select the website where PARS will be installed. 

===Installation===

You should see a message box asking whether you wish to perform a new install. '''If you do not see the window below, contact our [[Online Helpdesk]].''' 

[[Image:newinstall.jpg]] 

You will see "Default Web Site" and "Create new website", as well as the names of any other websites hosted by this IIS server. We recommend installing PARS as a new website. However if you do not know where to install the files for the PARS website, you can use the Default Web Site instead. 

===Updating PARS===

'''If you see a message box like the one below, please contact our [[Online Helpdesk]].''' 

[[Image:newinstall.jpg]] 

You will see a list of websites here, one of which should have an asterisk (*) after its name and will already be selected. If you can see multiple sites with an asterisk after their names then PARS has been installed more than once. 

You should then see a window like the one below: 

[[Image:application03.jpg|800px]] 

==Database==

At this stage the Service Pack will check the connection to the SIMS database. If the Service Pack cannot find your SIMS database, you will need to find out why then resolve the issue before running the PARS Service Pack. Running SIMS on the server may provide some clues as to why the PARS Service Pack could not connect to the SIMS database. 

[[Image:database2.jpg|800px]] 

===Installation===

If you are installing PARS you will be asked for your SQL System Administrator (sa) password. 

[[Image:sapwd.jpg]] 

Enter your SQL sa password then click "Connect". 

===Updating===

If you are updating PARS for the first time since migrated your SIMS SQL server, you may be asked for your SQL SA password. If this is not the case and you are being asked to provide an SA password '''when updating PARS''' then do not proceed any further and contact our [[Online Helpdesk]]. 

==Session State==

This tab gives options for handling the session state of logged in users. '''If you are unsure of which option you need to select, or do not know the pros and cons of each option, then you should choose In Process.''' 

[[Image:sessionstate2.jpg|800px]] 

==SIMS Workstation==

This tab of the Service Pack will stop IIS. If you need to perform a SIMS update you must run the Service Pack up until this point - and not proceed any further - then leave the Service Pack open and perform the SIMS update. Once SIMS has been updated the Service Pack can be continued. 

[[Image:service_pack_SIMS.jpg|800px]] 

==Commit==

As long as there are no errors, you will not see this tab. The installer will skip past this tab and perform all of the steps for you. 

[[Image:commit01.jpg|800px]] 

A window will open explaining whether or not the Commit tab ran successfully. If everything was successful then the window will disappear after 5 seconds. Otherwise the window will stay open telling you what went wrong. 

[[Image:auto_success.jpg|800px]] 

==Auxiliary==

If your window looks like the one below then the installation or update has completed successfully and you can click the "Finish" button to finalise it. 

[[Image:auxiliary02.jpg|800px]] 

If you see the following image then the Service Pack thinks that the server you have used is not your main PARS IIS server. If this is correct, click "Finish". 

[[Image:whichmain.jpg]] 

If this server '''is''' your main PARS IIS server (perhaps because you have migrated your server) then select "Yes", then click "Finish". 

=Extras=

==CAPTCHA==

If you wish you can set a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captcha CAPTCHA] which will be required for users to log in to PARS Connect. To enable this, find the web.config file on the IIS server (by default it is found in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\pars) and open the file in Notepad. Find the lines of text below and make sure that "value" is set to "On". 

<setting name="CAPTCHA" serializeAs="String">
<value>On</value>
</setting>

==Configuring External Route==

If you want PARS to be accessible on machines outside of the school network, you will need to ensure that a route is configured from outside to the PARS Connect IIS server. Although the details will change according to the environment your PARS server operates in, the principle remains the same. Your school will have a static IP address that it presents to the Internet, and you will have to forward requests to this address, on the port chosen for PARS when installing, to the internal network address of the PARS server on the same port, for example: 

Assuming your schools external IP address is '''62.63.64.65''', and your PARS server's internal network address '''is 10.0.0.20''', and that PARS is installed to listen on TCP port 1595, the forwarding rule would be '''62.63.64.65:1595''' is to be forwarded to '''62.63.64.65:1234'''. 

This rule would normally be configured either at the school's main incoming router, or you may have to put in a change request to your LA to have this facility enabled - again, details will vary according to circumstance. 

When you know the external address you will be using, you can either embed this in your school's main web site as a link, or distribute it as is. 

As a final note, it is strongly suggested that you install and use an SSL certificate on the PARS server, and also that it is not a self-signed certificate, unless you will be also using the server as a root certificate authenticator. 

Although not authoritative, the example below may help you to with this stage. 

<div>[[Image:network_topology.jpg|1000px]]</div> 

==SSL certificate==

To encrypt traffic between the server and client and to enable https for Insight, an SSL certificate will be required. This can be purchased in advance of installing Insight (the URL that will be used for Insight and the name of the server that Insight will be installed on will be required). 

An SSL certificate is not required when installing Insight initially and can be acquired after installation. 

To associate the certificate with the site, first follow the instructions from your certificate provider both to apply for and receive the certificate. 

Once you have acquired an SSL certificate, the Insight traffic can be encrypted by following these steps: 
* Open IIS Manager. Under the Sites folder, select the Insight site
* On the Actions panel, click the '''Bindings''' option in the Edit Site section
* A Site Bindings window will open. Click the '''Add''' button
* Another window will open to Add Site Bindings. Set the Type to https and the SSL certificate to your certificate. The port over which traffic is secured is usually 443
''If port 443 is already in use, you can enter the host name of your Insight site so that port 443 can be shared. The host name is the Insight URL that is used outside of the school, without any page extensions or https prefix e.g. Insight.MySchool.co.uk''

Preparing for September

2019-09-04T08:06:06Z

Admin: /* Pupils appear on menus/registers without a name or with person:xxxx, person:ID or ", (-)" as their name */

=Things to do once the academic year has advanced=

===Mapping sessions to lessons===

The Registration Preferences page is now used to configure session mappings, and is accessed via: 
'''[[PARS main menu]]''' > '''[[System management]]''' > '''[[Registration preferences#Session times|Registration preferences]]''' 

See the registration preferences page for information about create session mappings. 

===How to set the Academic Year to 2019-2020===

This needs to be done for each user account. In SIMS .net go to: 
'''Tools''' > '''Academic Management''' > '''Set academic year''' 

===Resetting students' behaviour points to zero===

Behaviour incidents do not need to be deleted. The reports in PARS will only look at one year's worth of data at a time so the previous year's behaviour incidents will not be seen in behaviour reports, behaviour screens, etc. The pupil information is capable of displaying behaviour incidents from previous years. This can be prevented by going to: 
'''[[PARS main menu]] > [[System management]] > [[Preferences]] > Pupil info > Only show this year's behaviour on Pupil information screen.''' 

If previous incidents were entered for testing purposes only then these can be deleted by following the instructions on the [[edit behaviour incidents]] page. 

===Reschedule Detention / Removal / Extra Class timeslots===

Detentions and/or removals will need to be rescheduled for the academic year. This is performed via: 
'''[[PARS main menu]] > [[Detentions and Removals|Detentions]] > Configure > Configure time types''' 
'''[[PARS main menu]] > [[Detentions and Removals|Removals]] > Configure > Configure time types''' 
'''[[PARS main menu]] > [[Extra classes]] > Configure > Configure time types''' 

Select a timeslot and click the Calenderise button to create a new schedule. See the [[configure time types]] page for further details. 

===Reschedule On Report / Student Review grade elements===

The grading elements for PARS On Report and/or for Student Review elements will need to be rescheduled for the new academic year. This is performed via: 
'''[[PARS main menu]] > [[On report]] > Configure > Elements''' 
'''[[PARS main menu]] > [[Grading]] > Configure > Configure grading elements''' 

Further information can be found on the [[edit PARS grade element]] page. 

===Setup Heads of Subject===

PARS cannot determine which staff members are the heads of subjects or faculties from SIMS. Therefore this information must be manually entered into PARS. The page used to do this is: 
'''[[PARS main menu]] > [[System management]] > [[Subject leaders]] 

===New staff members===

If you have any new staff members, they will need to have their PARS [[permissions]] configured after their SIMS account has been created. SIMS permissions do not have any effect in PARS. 

=Troubleshooting=

===PARS is running slowly===

See the [[performance issues]] page if users are reporting that PARS is running slowly. 

===How do I run reports or view data from last year?===

On the [[homepage]], near the top left of the calendar click the "Academic year" dropdown option and choose the year you wish to view. There is a permission required to see and use this feature so if the dropdown is not visible you may need to review your [[permissions]]. 

The permission is called "Allows user to change current attendance year" and is found in the PARS section. 

===Some (not all) classes missing from timetables in PARS===

The staff member should log in to SIMS. On the homepage, there is a My Timeline section which displays the staff member's timetable. If the class is also missing on this section in SIMS then the problem is not with PARS and must be fixed in SIMS. We cannot assist with this issue. 

===All lessons are missing from timetables in PARS===

This means that the timetable has not been applied in SIMS. Apply the timetable in SIMS then log out of PARS and back in again. The [[applying the academic timetable]] page can be used as a guide but you should also contact your SIMS support. 
'''Warning''': reapplying the timetable in SIMS can cause attendance data to be lost. 

===Classes are missing from a subject===

If the classes are missing from their subjects in PARS, log in to SIMS and go to: 
'''Tools''' > '''Academic Management''' > '''Course Manager''' > '''Maintain Course''' 

Search for the course that the class should belong to. Open the course and check section 6, classes. The class must be listed in this section. 

===Some/all students are missing from some/all user defined groups===

Students have a start and end date for their membership to a user defined group. The membership for some or all of the pupils may have expired. To check this, use the Academic Year dropdown option on the PARS [[homepage]] to change back to the previous academic year (If you do not see the Academic Year dropdown, you may need to edit your permissions. See the [[Preparing_for_September#How_do_I_run_reports_or_view_data_from_last_year|How do I run reports or view data from last year]] section, above). 

Next go to: 
'''[[PARS main menu]]''' > '''Group management''' > '''[[Group manager]]''' 

Select the user defined group that is missing students. The list of students will be shown on the right of the page, and their membership dates will be displayed. Select all of the students whose dates need to be changed then click the Edit button. Set the End date forward, or delete the end date if you do not want the students' memberships to expire. 

===I can see a message about the Automation module not running===

A message will appear at the top left of PARS if automation has stopped running. Automation is an important process that performs various housekeeping jobs for PARS as well as sending automated reports. See the [[automation]] page for more information is your automation has stopped running. 

===Pupils appear on menus/registers without a name or with person:xxxx, person:ID or ", (-)" as their name===

These are pupils who were expected to attend the school this year and had timetables etc configured. They subsequently have not been admitted but have group memberships left in the database. '''You must back up your SIMS.net database before proceeding with the following steps.''' 

Login to SIMS and go to: 
'''Tools''' > '''Validate Memberships''' 

Once the Validate Memberships process has completed, log in to PARS and go to: 
'''System Management''' > '''System''' > '''Cache Viewer''' 
Find a cache called "StudentsCache" (you can use Ctrl+F to search) and click the cross button to the left to delete the cache. The students' names will now appear correctly in registers. 

===All registers can be opened but no marks can be entered===

Go to: 
'''System management''' > '''Registration Preferences''' 

Visiting this page will update SIMS Lesson Monitor settings which allows PARS to handle registers correctly. Once you have visited this page, all registers will become active. You do not need to click or save anything on the Registration Preferences page.

Getting started

2019-08-01T12:59:09Z

Admin: /* Recommended permissions for Office, SLT and Teachers */

'''You have now purchased PARS Connect and want to configure a few areas to get started!''' 

PARS can be configured in either the client version (installed on a machine) or PARS Connect which is web based. This page explains how to configure PARS using PARS Connect. 

==Logging in==

This is the PARS login page: 

[[Image:gsclogin.jpg|500px]] 

Enter your SIMS username and password to login into PARS and begin configuration. 

==Configure User Permissions==

To access this page go to: 

'''[[PARS main menu]] (circular button top left corner) > [[System management]] > [[Permissions]]''' 

[[Image:GSc01.jpg]] 

The recommended way to give user permissions to staff is by creating a template for various roles and then assigning this template to members of staff. This way if you want to edit users' permissions, you update the template only and not all users individually; makes it quick and simple! 

===Create a Template===

To create a template for yourself, click on 'Add template' 

[[Image:GSc02.jpg]] 

Name the template - example 'Admin' and click Accept. You will now see the template name 'Admin' in the table. Select the admin template by clicking the radial button on the left of "Admin" then click the "Modify" button from the top toolbar. 

Next download and save the file below, by right-clicking and selecting "Save target as..." 

[http://www.tascsoftware.co.uk/wiki/PARS/files/Admin%20Suggested%20Permissions.xml Suggested Admin Permissions] 

Click the "Import" button from the top toolbar and import the file you have just downloaded. 

===Applying a Template===

Once you have imported your template click the "Save" button at the top-right of the page. This will take you back to the page showing your permissions templates. You now need to apply the template to yourself and any other staff members requiring admin rights. 

Click the "Users" radio button at the top of the page - this will switch the view so that you can see a list of users instead of templates. 

[[Image:Gsc04.jpg]] 

Select the staff member(s) who require admin permissions by clicking the boxes on the left of their names. Once the staff are selected, click the "Modify" button from the top toolbar. 

Click the "Apply a template" button from the top toolbar and select the admin template that you created earlier. 

[[Image:gsc07.jpg]] 

Click "OK" in that window to apply the admin template to the users then click "Save" at the top-right and you will be taken back to the page showing the permissions templates. If you want to check and see which templates have been applied to users, then click the "Users" button at the top of the page. After each users' name, you will be able to see the name of the template that was last applied to them. 

[[Image:gsc09.jpg]] 

You must log out of PARS and back in again before the permissions changes will take effect. To do this, click the padlock button at the top-left of the page. 

[[Image:GSC08.jpg]] 

===Recommended permissions for Office, SLT and Teachers===

You may wish to create permissions templates for other users at school, so that they can begin using the system straight away. The process will be exactly the same as above except that the users should have a different set of permissions than admin. Please see below for more suggested permissions templates.

*[http://www.tascsoftware.co.uk/wiki/PARS/files/Teacher%20Suggested%20Permissions.xml Suggested Teacher Permissions] 

For a more informative list of the permissions and their purposes, please go to [[List of permissions]]. 

==Configure Preferences==

Unlike permissions which are specific to each user, preferences are global to the school. It is recommended that you stick with the default preferences in most cases, though there are a few details that you will need to input. 

To access this page go to: 

'''[[PARS main menu]] (circular button top left corner) > [[System management]] > [[Preferences]]''' 

[[Image:gsc10.jpg]] 

This will take you to the preferences page. The preferences are divided into sections depending on which area of PARS they affect. First click on the "General" section. There is a preference called "PARS Connect URL - Used for IEPs and Student Review writeback". You need to enter the URL of your PARS Connect site - '''please note this should not be a localhost address'''. 

Once done click on the "Email" section. You need to enter the details of your SMTP server as well as login credentials to access it. 

[[Image:gsc12.jpg]] 

Once you have entered the SMTP details (username, password, port and servername/IP address) click the "Send test email" link at the bottom of the section. This will open a window where you can enter an email address to send a test message to. Test this with both an internal and external email address to check that emails are working properly. 

==Registration Preferences==

Registration preferences are similar to preferences in that they are system-wide settings, although they only apply to [[register|registers]]. Again it is recommended that you stick with the default preferences in most cases, though you will need to check the session times, which are the start and end times of the periods that pupils spend with their form tutors. If your school does not have form tutor sessions, you can skip this step. 

To access Registration preferences go to: 

'''[[PARS main menu]] (circular button top left corner) > [[System management]] > [[Registration preferences]]''' 

There are tabs at the top of the page which allow you to edit various different settings. Click on "Session times". 

[[Image:gsc13.jpg]] 

Please enter the correct times for your Statutory AM and PM registers. Once you have entered the times, take a note of the earliest start time for a PM session. 

Now click on the "Operational preferences" tab at the top of the page. The first setting here is called "AM/PM cutoff time" - this '''must''' be set to an earlier time than the earliest start time for a PM session (the time you just took a note of). 

One you have finished selecting all your preferences click the "Save" button from the top-right of the page. 

==Timetables and mapping periods==

If the pupils at your school have a period with their form tutor in both the morning and the afternoon, ignore this section. Otherwise the attendance mark that would normally be given by a form tutor will come from a lesson register instead (the form tutor periods provide statutory attendance marks for the AM and PM halves of the school day - these marks are required by law). 

The process for dealing with this is to 'map' a lesson register to the form periods, so that the attendance mark given to a pupil during that lesson is copied to their AM or PM mark. This configuration needs to be done in SIMS, but you can see a guide for this on the [[mapped periods]] page. 

==Configure proxy==

The PARS Connect IIS server needs to be able to connect to the internet to check for a valid license file, send SMS and email messages, etc. If it requires a proxy server then this is configured on the proxy server page. 

The proxy server is configured via: 

'''[[PARS main menu]] > [[System management]] > [[Configure proxy server]] 

[[Image:configureproxy.jpg]] 

You should first try using the details shown above as these work in the vast majority of cases. Enter "DEFAULT" into the "Proxy details" field and then click "Save" at the top-left. Once done, click the "Test" button - this will give you a window showing the results of the test. 

[[Image:gscproxytest.jpg]] 

If this fails, enter the IP/Port number of the proxy server in the "Proxy details" field and if necessary, a fully qualified domain name, username and password in the boxes below. Save and test again. 

==Configure SMS==

If you plan on using PARS to send [[SMS|SMS messages]] then you will need to create an account with Text Anywhere, the SMS provider that we work with. You can find a link to their website on the Configure SMS page in PARS. 

Go to: 

'''[[PARS main menu]] > [[Contact management]] > Configure > [[Configure SMS]]''' 

[[Image:gscsms01.jpg]] 

Click the link that says "Here" to go to Text Anywhere's website. You can setup an account for free which will provide you with 50 free SMS messages. The messages never expire so there is no harm in setting the account up now. 

Once you have created an account, enter the Client identifier and Client password into PARS. Please note that the Client identifier is not an email address and will normally be in the format shown in the screenshot above. Once you have entered those details, contact us at TASC Software to obtain your authorisation code. You can either use the email address provided or ring 01902 824281. 

Once all details on this page are entered, click "Save" at the top-left. Then click the "Test" button which will open a window - enter your mobile number and click "OK".

You may also want to click on the "Options" tab at the top of this page for some additional settings. This can be done at a later date and will often require an operational decision from SLT. More details about these settings can be found on the [[Configure SMS|configure SMS page]]. 

[[Image:gscsmsoptions.jpg]] 

==[[Automation]]==

The automation module is something that performs automatic jobs for PARS. It can send automated reports (i.e. an attendance report sent weekly to each HoY), run [[Rule based behaviours]], copy behaviour incidents to SIMS and other housekeeping jobs. '''Automation must run daily.''' 

Please see our dedicated section to [[Automation]]. Once you have configured automation, PARS will be ready for basic usage!

Getting started

2019-08-01T12:58:36Z

Admin: /* Create a Template */

'''You have now purchased PARS Connect and want to configure a few areas to get started!''' 

PARS can be configured in either the client version (installed on a machine) or PARS Connect which is web based. This page explains how to configure PARS using PARS Connect. 

==Logging in==

This is the PARS login page: 

[[Image:gsclogin.jpg|500px]] 

Enter your SIMS username and password to login into PARS and begin configuration. 

==Configure User Permissions==

To access this page go to: 

'''[[PARS main menu]] (circular button top left corner) > [[System management]] > [[Permissions]]''' 

[[Image:GSc01.jpg]] 

The recommended way to give user permissions to staff is by creating a template for various roles and then assigning this template to members of staff. This way if you want to edit users' permissions, you update the template only and not all users individually; makes it quick and simple! 

===Create a Template===

To create a template for yourself, click on 'Add template' 

[[Image:GSc02.jpg]] 

Name the template - example 'Admin' and click Accept. You will now see the template name 'Admin' in the table. Select the admin template by clicking the radial button on the left of "Admin" then click the "Modify" button from the top toolbar. 

Next download and save the file below, by right-clicking and selecting "Save target as..." 

[http://www.tascsoftware.co.uk/wiki/PARS/files/Admin%20Suggested%20Permissions.xml Suggested Admin Permissions] 

Click the "Import" button from the top toolbar and import the file you have just downloaded. 

===Applying a Template===

Once you have imported your template click the "Save" button at the top-right of the page. This will take you back to the page showing your permissions templates. You now need to apply the template to yourself and any other staff members requiring admin rights. 

Click the "Users" radio button at the top of the page - this will switch the view so that you can see a list of users instead of templates. 

[[Image:Gsc04.jpg]] 

Select the staff member(s) who require admin permissions by clicking the boxes on the left of their names. Once the staff are selected, click the "Modify" button from the top toolbar. 

Click the "Apply a template" button from the top toolbar and select the admin template that you created earlier. 

[[Image:gsc07.jpg]] 

Click "OK" in that window to apply the admin template to the users then click "Save" at the top-right and you will be taken back to the page showing the permissions templates. If you want to check and see which templates have been applied to users, then click the "Users" button at the top of the page. After each users' name, you will be able to see the name of the template that was last applied to them. 

[[Image:gsc09.jpg]] 

You must log out of PARS and back in again before the permissions changes will take effect. To do this, click the padlock button at the top-left of the page. 

[[Image:GSC08.jpg]] 

===Recommended permissions for Office, SLT and Teachers===

You may wish to create permissions templates for other users at school, so that they can begin using the system straight away. The process will be exactly the same as above except that the users should have a different set of permissions than admin. Please see below for more suggested permissions templates.
