Bader Squadron Management System v5

Nope - you need to update the “summary” page manually on each successful classification pass. SMS will show Ultilearn exam statuses on the page but does not update the actual classification data.

Thank you, that is surely a good opportunity for improvement then.

That whole area has not been developed as seemingly planned for quite some time.

Recognising a pass at Leading, Senior and Master should be relatively simple.
The Leading exams are unique to the classification, while the first 3 passes at S/M should earn you Senior, and the next 3 earn you Master.

I am sure there are complexities but I cannot think of any other potential pitfalls at the moment.

All good points.

It is on the road map, ideally tied to integrating SMS with the LMS so that when a cadet passes an exam it adds the result to SMS, and SMS then calculates whether a cadet has passed a new classification level.

Would be useful for that to then send a notification to the Training Officer so that they can arrange badges/certificates and keep track of what’s going on.

Presumably that development is on hold until the new LMS is confirmed?

Our TO account isn’t really in use at the moment due to double hatting and a bit of splitting of exec roles. Our Adj would take on the certs, while OC sets the programme, and everyone who instructs is responsible for updating the progress records.

It could equally go to the adj or OC I was just thinking in terms of the traditional squadron delegation of roles it would make most sense to send it to the TO. Understand that won’t work for everyone.

Or if it were sent to the TO account then whoever is double-hatting could delegate access to their other account.

They could then access the training account from within the adj account for example.

I was more amending your suggestion than criticising it.

:open_mouth: they can do what now? Log in as one but view both? Is that across mail/SPOL/SMS?

Just mail I believe. I don’t actually use the feature myself because I detest Outlook online (or Web Access or whatever they’re calling it now) and I use em Client instead.

But you should be able to log into the ‘second’ account and delegate access to your ‘main’ account. Then in the main account you can open the second inbox - like you would with multiple accounts in normal outlook.

I’ve tried this and for whatever reason couldn’t get it to work. It kind of worked in that I get calendar invites from one account inthe other as well, but I can’t see the inbox.

Ahhh that’s frustrating.

I’ve just had a nose through. Seems that only admins can set up delegation of mailboxes.

We used to do it ourselves at work under an older version of exchange server. I assumed it would be similar here but clearly not.

Fair enough. The other option is that you use an app (I do it with Windows Mail and on my phone) that can draw from multiple inboxes much as I assume you do with em.

Monitoring multiple inboxes can be a pain though - SOO much duplication.

Hopefully to be resolved with individual accounts at some point… @james_elliott ?

Yes. Under the old system it was easy - I had all my inboxes available in Outlook.
Now that we can’t use outlook with our O365 licence I have to use eM Client, and the free version only allows two accounts at once.

It’s workable though.

A request please James, when I am creating an event, and the traffic lights are showing red, can clicking on them take me to the page I need to correct that light?
