IEP Settings

How do I change the settings in the IEP Module to suit my school's needs

You can switch off any of the standard fields in the IEP module that are not required in Admin>Settings>IEP. To switch off the field click on the green/white button and the option will change to white meaning that the field is switched off.

The form also has 12 customisable fields that you can switch on. When you have done this click 'Save Changes'. 

Next go to Admin>Terminology>IEP and rename the customisable fields that you have switched on.

Once you have switched off fields you do not wish to use and turned on the extra fields you require and clicked save you can then drag and drop all of the fields into your required order by clicking the left mouse button the on the hand icon and moving them.

Then remember to click save changes

If you wish to update or remove one of the drop-down or check box options you have created firstly select the option in an IEP and click on 'Manage'

Either type the new name and click 'Update Name'

Or click 'Delete' and then click 'Confirm'. Please note the delete button only allows you to move the selected data entry to another entry.  When you have done is and clicked update the selected entry for deletion will no longer appear in the list of options.  Therefore if you do not want a data entry in this field for the IEP you will need to create a new dropdown called for example None and select this option.

***Please Note*** 

1. Alternate View gives you the option to change the print layout of your IEP from Portrait to Landscape. This is useful if you have entered a lot of information in for example the strategy field and the IEP is printing over a number of pages. 

2. Selecting Restricted only allows users to access to IEP records belonging to pupils or classes allocated to them in their User Profile. Please click here for how to set up Users on your SOLAR.

Note1: If you have already entered data into this field this data will no longer display in the IEP and no more data can be entered into this field.  If you subsequently switch the field back on any data that was already entered will display again.
