Student Lifecycle › Rooms & Timetabling
Timetable Runs
The automatic builder: build a conflict-free timetable for a term as a preview, see what it could not place and why, then apply it or throw it away. Exam scheduling runs land here too.

The rules that apply here
Everything on this screen obeys the platform rules rather than rules of its own. The ones worth knowing before you use it:
- Narrowing a list — search, conditions, sort, totals, export and saved views.
- What may be changed — the five grounds a record may not be edited on.
- Companies and business units — what the switcher above this list is doing to it.
