Advanced settings and customization

Campuses

Campuses are used to organize classes by internal structure: location, faculty, department, program or any other grouping specific to the institution. This concept is optional and remains distinct from sites: a site is a physical place, with its own time grid, rooms and travel times, whereas a campus is simply a logical organizational unit.

Campuses become especially useful when geography does not match your logical organization well: several faculties in the same buildings, or several schools of a group sharing several sites in overlapping ways. Even when campuses and sites overlap, this level of organization can still be useful for filters and groupings.

Use Create to add only the campuses that genuinely serve to organize or filter the work. They then become available in the class creation screens and some diagnostic filters.

Translation and terminology overrides

The screen also lets you override translations to adapt the displayed vocabulary to your institution. This area is used to customize the labels visible in the interface, without changing the functional structure of the product.

There are two distinct mechanisms:

• Translation replacement rules: they replace one term with another across a set of labels;
• Translation redefinitions: they replace the value of a specific translation directly.

Replacement rules

Replacement rules are used to harmonize vocabulary across many labels at once. Typical examples:

• replacing Professeur with Intervenant;
• replacing Élève with Étudiant;
• adapting certain terms to the culture of the institution.

Rules are ordered. Order matters: a rule placed higher applies before the following ones. The screen lets you:

• enter a source text and a target text, then confirm with Add;
• preview the affected labels;
• reorder the rules;
• delete a rule.

The available options refine the type of replacement:

• Aa: case-sensitive matching;
• underlined ab: whole-word matching;
• .*: regular expression.

Use rules when you want to change a term consistently across several screens.

Rules are saved in their own area: adding, deleting and reordering are recorded separately from the other settings on the page.

Full key overrides

Full key overrides are used to correct or rewrite a label case by case.

The screen lets you:

• search for an existing translation;
• add it to the list of overrides;
• enter your own version;
• save or delete this override.

Use this mode when a general rule would be too broad, or when you want to rewrite an entire sentence rather than a single term.

Each key override is saved line by line with its own save or delete button.

Good practice

Rules and overrides are meant to customize the displayed vocabulary. They change neither the underlying business concepts, nor the internal identifiers, nor the behavior of the application.

Prefer:

• a rule for a recurring renaming;
• a key override for a local exception or a complete label.

Avoid overly broad or ambiguous replacements that would make help, searches or terminology inconsistent from one screen to the next.
