Filter/sort instructor attributes for schedule
The Instructors list in the All Instructors/One Day view can be filtered or sorted by Instructor attributes in order to customize which Instructors are displayed on the Schedule tab described above.
1. Access the Filter/Sort Preferences tab.
2. Click Filter/Sort list based on these selections to activate the filter/sort process, which allows the Instructor list in the Schedule tab to be filtered/sorted based on selected criteria.
3. Enter a User Def Group if you would like to see only Instructors in that group listed in the Schedule tab.
4. Use the blank, Pref and Req radio buttons to choose how each criterion affects the Instructors list – the choices are summarized below.
Choice | Description |
Blank | This selection causes the filtering/sorting process of the Instructors list to disregard the value(s) in the field(s) associated with this button. The attribute field remains greyed out and inactive. |
Pref | This selection causes the Instructors list to be sorted based on the value(s) in the field(s) associated with this button. In other words, Instructors who meet this criterion are listed before Instructors who do not. When a particular attribute is assigned Pref, the field becomes active. |
Req | This selection causes the Instructors list to be filtered based on the value(s) in the field(s) associated with this button. In other words, only Instructors who meet this criterion are listed. When a particular attribute is assigned Req, the field turns red. |
5. Use the two time fields to filter or sort based on Instructor availability. Choose the time range during which Instructor availability is needed. The Instructors list is sorted/filtered based on availability during this time range.
Note: This allows the operator to page between days in the schedule to see a list of Instructors available during the specified time range on each day.
6. Use the Female/Male fields to filter/sort the Instructors list based on the gender of Instructor.
7. Use the List 1 dropdown box to select a value in List 1 by which to sort/filter the Instructors list.
8. Using the Alpine/Snowboard/Telemark/Other fields, check the type of Level and enter a Level value with which the Instructors list is sorted/filtered. Instructors who are at that Level or above are selected in a sort.
9. If you use the user-defined Check Box fields, check them to filter/sort Instructors based on the value assigned them for this field. For example, if the label on one is Patient, checking this box sorts/filters on all patient Instructors (Instructors who have this box checked in guest preferences).
10. Use the dropdown Prefer list to select an Instructor who appears at the top of the Instructor list regardless of how well the Instructor matches the other selected sort/filter criteria. This is used in the case that someone wants to check the availability of a preferred Instructor.
11. If you use the user-defined Numeric fields, enter values in them to filter/sort Instructors based on the value assigned them for these fields. Instructors whose value is equal to or greater than the value entered here are included in a sort.
12. Use the List 2 dropdown box to select a value in List 2 by which to sort/filter the Instructor list.
13. Enter an Experience value to filter/sort Instructors based on number of years of experience. Instructors whose Experience value is equal to or greater than the value entered here are included.
