MySchool User Interface (UI)

Depending on your attachment to certain user groups, the Interface automatically adapts to your security level. In this article, we explain the different features available to administrators. Other users can access the Student Portal, Guardian Portal, or the Teacher portal which outlines their respective views. 

User Interface (UI)

There are two levels of Administrator views in MySchool, Normal and Super. In most cases, Administrators have access to the normal portal. Once you have started with MySchool, we will introduce new functions and features, and assist Admins to become fully competent to control their schools data. 

Certain screen shots may contain options that you do not currently have access to, Please contact MSM support to discuss access features.

1. User dashboard

This section can be adapted depending on the communication structure used internally in your school. If you wish to use a full directory with contact details, then we can enable the Directory functionality. Transferring files from user to user is made easy with the My files feature. Scheduling and booking appointments/events can be accessed via these menus as well. 

2. Menu headers

These are adapted to the user group, and in certain cases the country. Contact our support team to configure these for your school. In Malta, we include the DQSE menu header, whereas in Canada, this would be TRAX/1701. if your school does not require modules like Finance or Donations then we can hide these from the menu headers. Within the menu headers, you will find functions, and advanced options. Clicking on Advanced options will provide further functionality related to the menu header.

3. User dashlets

These are adapted to the user groups, and offer quick views to features such as finance, attendance and announcements. The data completion tab gives a simple overview on user profile data.

The Plus icon is to access the quick link feature, listing appropriate menu functions most widely used by the user group. The Magnifying glass is the Super Search feature, which allows users to search the database for actual users. If you wish to search archived or non registered users then use the advanced search feature. The Question mark allows users to access the interactive help desk, and submit support tickets if their account is registered with MSM support. The People icon (head icon), gives the user access to their account details.

This screen allows users to change their password, and set a signature for Announcements. Users can see the groups they are attached to, by clicking on the link next to membership.
