Share lessons (1 lesson for 2 groups at the same date/time in the same classroom)

As a planner, I want to share lessons (1 lesson for 2 groups at the same date/time in the same classroom).

Solution in Omniscol. Model the shared lesson with an alignment or a group of groups: the shared lesson brings the groups together on the same time slot, in the same classroom, with the same teacher.

Place a lesson with several groups

As a planner, I want to place a lesson with several groups.

Status: ✓ Available

Solution in Omniscol. You can directly attach several groups — from the same class or from different classes — to a single lesson. For lasting or recurring groupings, structure them instead with a group of groups or an alignment as appropriate.

Place lessons by group in bulk

As a planner, I want to be able to place lessons by group in bulk, so that I can assign groups in bulk, in one click.

Status: ✓ Available

Solution in Omniscol. Two levers cover bulk placement.

• Multiple selection, then the pin. Select several lessons at once — with Shift+click, or through the Extend the selection menu (by day, week, month, day of the week, subject or group division). The pin then shows the time slots compatible with the whole selection: a single click places them together on the same time slot.
• Automatic generation. To place all the lessons on the grid at once, let the solver distribute them while respecting the constraints (see Automatic generation).

To bring several groups together on a single lesson, see "Place a lesson with several groups" above; to track the placed volumes, rely on the hours distribution.
