The Toolbox is where to begin setting up your Calendar4Schools application.
Add Buildings first so you can attach facilities, resources, signup sheets, and calendars to the appropriate building. This forum will cover Buildings, with Facilities and Resources covered in separate forums on our support site.
Facilities are usually considered spaces (rooms, areas, gymnasiums, football field, etc…) within or near a building.
Resources are usually smaller items that may need to be moved to a facility or signed out when they are needed; like computers, projectors, athletic equipment, and so on.
Buildings
When you select Buildings from the Toolbox dropdown list, you will be able to add each of the buildings in your district to the list.
As facilities, resources, and signup sheets are attached to a building, you will be able to see how many of each are attached to a building in the Building Usage column. The Dropdown Position column will let you move a building to a different position in the list by simply clicking on the up or down arrow as desired. Use these arrows if you desire to have a specific grouping like placing all the elementary buildings together.
Use the SORT APHABETICALLY link above the Edit and Delete columns if the entire list should be sorted in alphabetical order.
Click the pencil icon in the Edit column to edit the building name, or to add/edit email addresses that will be sent a notification email when the Facility Use Request tool is used in CMS4Schools and the facility is attached to this building.
Note: A building can only be deleted when it does not have any facilities, resources or signup sheets attached to it. Lincoln Elementary is the only building above with the garbage can icon in the Delete column, indicating that it could be deleted.
Adding a Building
Click on the + ADD BUILDING link in the upper left shown in the previous screen shot.
Key in the building name and add the email addresses that will be sent a notification email when the Facility Use Request tool is used in CMS4Schools and the facility is attached to this building. Separate multiple addresses with a comma.
Click Add.
