After you first purchase TimeTabler (and after you have worked through the step-by-step Tutorial) you will need to enter your own data.
The first step is to go to File Menu -> Blank Data.
This will delete all the Tutorial data, leaving the screens blank, ready for your data.
Then you can enter your own Basic Data, of Teachers, Subjects & Rooms,
• either: by typing them in,
• or: by importing this data from your SIMS MIS. Details of how to do this are shown in a document you can download here.
You only need to enter all the Basic Data in the very first year of using TimeTabler.
Thereafter you will simply update the data by editing it. For example, if a Teacher leaves or if you introduce a new Subject.
For full details of how to do this, see the HelpMovie on “Tidying-up last year’s data”.
