Pinned notes are a feature in Arbor that allows you to create notes for learners regarding anything that might require attention. These appear in different sections of Arbor, including Pastoral, Academic and Medical.
Once a note has been created, anything important can be pinned to a student’s profile. These pinned notes are what Edulink One pulls into Registers and Contacts. A cache will be required before you see any changes in Edulink One.
Adding Important Notes to the Register
To enable pinned notes, go to the Registers tab in the Edulink One administration settings.
If you haven’t set up your registers tab, you would need to do this to enable pinned notes in registers, but if you have, you can enable this setting Enable Register Tags field.
Save your changes by selecting ‘Save’ at the bottom of the screen.
Once you open a register to view any important notes from Arbor’s pinned items, you must click on the student’s name to open their details.
Important Notes in Student Contacts
Pinned notes attached to students in Arbor will be visible in Edulink One’s Contacts for the student. Contacts must be enabled in Edulink One’s General tab to pull in this information.
Important notes are only visible to school employees.
Save your changes at the bottom of the screen.
You can view the pinned notes by selecting the Learners icon.
Search for the learner you require and click on their image to enter the screen.
Go to their Contacts and select it.
The important note will appear at the top of their contacts screen.
MIS Compatibility
Important notes also work with SIMS Quick Notes.
