This article guides the user on how to configure the periods of the day in the e-Schooling system. This feature allows the definition of time blocks (such as morning, afternoon, or full day), which can later be used for bulk absence registration, making daily tasks easier for teachers and school management.

1.     Accessing Day Period Settings

From the side menu, go to:

    Academic Settings > Support Tables > Day Periods

2.    Creating a New Day Period

Click the “+” button to add a new period

Fill in the following fields:

• Name: Assign a name to the period (e.g., “Morning”)
• Start and End Time: Define the time range (e.g., from 07:00 to 12:00)
• (Optional) Color: Choose a color to help visually identify the period
• Click Save

Configuring day periods allows for more efficient management of instructional time and simplifies processes such as absence tracking. While this article does not go into detail on that topic, it’s important to note that the periods defined here can later be used to streamline absence marking.
