This add-on allows you to create custom statuses that you can select when completing lessons. The statuses that you create will be associated with the regular status types (Attended, Cancelled, Missed) and will have the same effect on lesson costs and wages as these status types.
Enabling the Add-on
Click on "Account & Settings" and then click on "Integrations & Add-ons".
Use the search field on the right and enter "Custom Lesson Statuses".
Click on "Enable" under the add-on's section.
Using the Custom Lesson Statuses Add-on
Once enabled, you can click on “Settings” to begin adding new custom lesson statuses. You can follow the steps below to add a new status:
Click on the "Add New Custom Status" link at the bottom of the table.
Enter a name for the custom lesson status in the "Custom Status" field.
Assign the lesson status to one of the default lesson statuses in the "Status Type" field. You can select between "Attended", "Missed", and "Cancelled".
Submit the form to save your changes.
You can delete any custom lesson status you've created by clicking on the "X" icon next to it's row.
Usage
The "Complete Lesson" form will now display the customs statuses in the "Status" menu. The Lesson History and Lesson History by Student tables will also display the custom statuses when you check the boxes for setting the status for multiple lessons.
NOTE: The Custom Lesson Statuses you create will appear in the "Status" menu in the order that they appear on this page. The status "Scheduled" will be included at the beginning by default.
Lessons that have been saved with custom statuses will display the custom status when you view the lesson details. If a custom status has not been saved, the regular status will be displayed.
Group Lessons
Lesson statuses are set for each student in a lesson. When a lesson has more than one student, the custom status is saved individually for each student. If all students have the same status, then the group lesson status will display the same value. However, if students in the lesson have different statuses, the status for the group lesson will use the status type rather than the custom statuses.
Adding Custom Lesson Status to Invoice
If you want the custom status for the lesson to appear on the "Description" field on invoices, please follow the steps below:
Click on "Account & Settings" and then click on "Account Settings".
Scroll down to the "Invoice Settings" section.
Under the "Invoice Lesson Description" field, add the lesson description merge tag for "Custom Status", which is {CUSTOM-STATUS}.
Submit the form to save your changes.
