Tool Search: Custom Module Setup
The Custom Module Setup tool was previously named Custom Module. Any Custom Modules created prior to the functionality allowing for a Contact Log and/or Custom Forms can be modified by navigating to the Custom Module Setup tool and selecting from the checkboxes.
The Custom Module Setup tool is used to create and manage organizational modules that store Custom Forms and/or Contact Logs.
Custom Forms can be currently created for the following modules:
- Attendance
- Counseling
- Health
- PLP
- RTI
- Special Ed
When creating a new area to house custom forms using the Custom Module Setup tool, a form needs to be created using Custom Form Setup. The custom area that was created appears in the Module dropdown list for selection.
Custom Forms are uploaded using the Custom Form Setup tool and assigned to students using the Forms tool.
Custom Contact Logs can be created and are available in the Custom category of Student Information by default. The location can be edited using the dropdown lists for menu and category item when creating a Custom Contact Log. They can be moved to a different location in the index after they are created using the Custom Tool Placement Editor, or merged with other Custom Modules that also only contain Contact Logs.
