The Edit Sizes screen in Akada allows you to manually override the size that was selected by the program. You will have students who are in between sizes due to having longer arms, shorter legs, etc... In these cases, you should choose the best size based on their other measurements and use the edit size screen to manually choose the appropriate size.
To edit costume sizes:
Click on the Performances tab at the top of Akada Online.
Select Manage Costumes.
Select Edit Size.
At the bottom, you will see a list of the assigned costumes.
Next to the appropriate class click View Students.
You should now see the students and their measurements listed above the list of costumes.
To change a size click Edit next to the student's name.
A pop-up window will appear.
Use the drop-down menu to select the correct size.
Click Save and the window will close.
The name of the student should now appear in orange indicating the costume size has been manually changed.
You may move on to the next student or click on any other screen in the program if you are finished.
Note: If a student quits or needs to drop the recital after you have assigned their costume you can remove the assigned costume using the Clear function.
Clearing a costume:
Click on the Performances tab at the top of Akada Online.
Select Manage Costumes.
Select Edit Size.
At the bottom, you will see a list of the assigned costumes.
Next to the appropriate class click View Students.
You should now see the students and their measurements listed above the list of costumes.
Click Clear next to the student's name.
Their name will now appear in red (pictured above) indicating the costume has been removed and they will be listed as "NoSiz."
Updating sizes:
If you make changes to a costume (price or color, for example) you will want to use the Update Sizes tool to make those changes take effect for the costume if it has already been assigned. You may do this from the Assign Costume or Edit Sizes page.
