This manual provides step-by-step guidance on creating and personalizing an Institution, including uploading a logo, understanding My Institute form fields, and generating reports.

 

Create a New Institute

To create a new Institute, navigate to: CONFIGURATION > Main Settings > My Institute > + Create New.

 

  • Specify the Title of the new Institute.
  • Mark the Active checkbox.
  • Click Save.

 

Note: Only the configuration structure will be copied from the selected Institute; no data will be transferred. Moreover, the user who creates the new Institute can also log in to it, but other users may need to be transferred if there is a need.

Once the configuration structure is successfully copied, a confirmation dialog box will appear. Click Yes to close it and proceed.

Note: The newly created Institute will not have any data. So, you can mass import the data related to Students, Educators, etc., from the other Institute or add new records.
