Hosted SIMS

Exporting to SIMS when it is "Hosted"

If you have a version of SIMS.net which is "Hosted" (maybe known as "Connected SIMS"), then you can export to it from TimeTabler, in the usual way (as used by hundreds of schools each year).

But SIMS tell us that you need to let whoever is in charge of the hosting (whether it be SIMS itself, or they have recommended you use a third-party like SCOMIS) know that you will want TimeTabler to call the SIMS timetable import program, which is called "CurrMatch.exe".  You need to let them know this now / in advance of when you will need it, so they can set it up / be aware.

To quote SIMS, they say that: "it needs to be explained that whatever computer has the TimeTabler application and the CurrMatch.exe needs to be connected to the hosted platform by the third party connector.  It means that whichever local computer at the school where TimeTabler and CurrMatch.exe exist needs to have the third party connector".
This information has to go to what SIMS call "The Hosted Team".

In summary, they say: "A school will inform the Hosted Team of the Partner application (ie. TimeTabler) it uses and a local integration box will be made available (by the Team)".

But if you have any problems or, or if your "Hosted Team" need more information, then please just ask them to contact us.
