Managing waiting lists within onCourse

Staff within your college can also add and remove students to waiting lists. Students need to be set up as contacts before you can add them to a waiting list.

You can add a Waiting List record by going to the Waiting List window. This window will show you all the students currently on waiting lists for various courses. You can add a student to the waiting list by clicking the plus + symbol in the bottom-right of the window.

In the record you can record the details about the student and the course, and select any venues they may particularly prefer. On the notes page you can enter other details such as time of day, day or week or any other preferences.

From the waiting list window you can also remove students by highlighting a record from the list view, clicking the cogwheel and selecting 'delete record'.

In the contact record you can see if a student is on any waiting lists, and in the course record, you can see how many students are on the waiting list.

When a student enrols in a course they are on the waiting list for, their waiting list entry is automatically deleted.
