You can bulk pause ECCE/NCS schemes or temporarily change funded hours for all or selected children.
This is especially useful during midterm breaks, Christmas holidays, or any period when funding hours need to change temporarily.
Pause Schemes (Weekly & Timed Schemes): Temporarily pause ECCE/NCS funding for selected children by choosing a start and end date.
Change Scheme Hours (Weekly Schemes Only): Temporarily adjust the weekly funded hours for selected children over a specified date range.
How to Use These Features
Go to Attendance > Schemes.
Select either Timed or Weekly Schemes, depending on which one you use. Please note: You can only use one scheme type at a time (Weekly or Timed). Using both simultaneously may cause errors in your reports.
Select Pause Scheme or Change Scheme Hours, depending on what you need.
Choose your start and end dates. The date range must begin on a Monday and end on a Sunday.
Select the children you want to apply the change to.
Enter the new funded hours if applicable, then save.
Important: Once the selected period ends, each child's usual scheme hours automatically resume. There's no need to manually change them back!
These features make managing ECCE/NCS funding during holidays and temporary schedule changes quicker and easier.
