Overview
Adding new staff with a Management Information System (MIS) sync:
Derventio Education’s software easily integrates with all Management Information Systems (MIS). If your organisation has already adopted an MIS system, then the adjustments for deleting old staff must be processed in the MIS first. Information will be automatically available in the system allowing you to streamline the process.
If you need to activate an MIS system contact customer care:

Once imputed here, the additional steps must be taken in iP:
1: Delete old staff and add new staff to your MIS.
2: In iP select Users and Group, then navigate to Staff Management.
3: Select Sync Data. The data will be then drawn from your MIS.
Instructions
MIS Settings
To access the MIS go to Users on the side menu, then select Staff Management. Click on the settings icon in the top right. Then select MIS setting from the staff settings menu.
Restore staff from the inactive list?: If this is ticked it will restore any staff you have previously made inactive when you perform an MIS Sync. If the user is still active within the MIS and not SchooliP when this is ticked it will be restored.
Allow the line manager to be changed?: Allows you to edit the user and use the reports to drop to change the line manager, if this is not turned on it will not allow you to edit this.
Allows the job title to be changed?: Allows the users to change job titles manually, in the MIS these users might have generic job titles such as classroom teacher. By allowing the teacher to change this to be more specific e.g maths teacher.
Only import the teacher records?: This will only import staff marked as teachers in the job title section.
Allow the management of staff members’ initials?: Allowing the user to change the initials within the system.
Remove departments when synchronising users?: When ticked this archive the departments.
By checking these boxes it will mean the MIS will not be able to override these changes.
