What are session based programs? How to manage them in iCare?
In addition to the ongoing Program/Class (P/C) functionality, iCare introduced Session-based Programs/Classes (P/Cs).
Features introduced in Session-based (P/Cs),
- Create multiple sessions under one P/C.
- Each session has its own capacity, schedule Start & End Date.
- Schedules can be common or different for each session.
- Default bills can also be common or different for each session. Separate bills can be added to each session from the Single Edit page (explained later in this doc.) and will be visible on the single edit page.
- At present, Children/staff can be enrolled in the sessions from the Single Edit Page only.
