Everything a registrar's office needs to schedule a semester

From academic data readiness through constraint-driven generation to governed publication, Academic Schedule Creation covers the full workflow.

Data foundation

Campuses, faculties, departments and buildings; academic calendars with your teaching week, holidays and temporary period patterns; rooms, laboratories and feature tags kept accurate for the solver.

  • Multi-campus institution structure
  • Configurable teaching week and calendar
  • Room, laboratory and feature registry

Offerings and staff

Subjects, curricula, programmes and cohorts on one side; academic staff, qualifications and workload limits on the other, joined by dated preference campaigns.

  • Course offerings with lecture, lab and tutorial sections
  • Mobile preference and availability capture
  • Department head approval of unavailability

Constraint engine and solver

An immutable, hashed problem snapshot is solved outside the browser. Hard constraints make a timetable invalid; soft constraints are scored so scenarios can be compared honestly.

  • Hard constraints: clashes, capacity, sequencing
  • Soft constraints: preference, fairness, compactness
  • Multiple weight profiles per generation run

Editing and conflicts

Drag an activity and the server answers immediately: blocked with a named reason, or accepted with an updated quality score. The conflict centre groups issues by constraint with one-click fixes.

  • Live validation on every manual move
  • Conflict centre grouped by constraint code
  • Recommended, pre-validated swaps

Governance and publication

Reviewer comments and approver sign-off precede every published version. Publications are immutable and versioned, with personal and cohort timetables generated automatically.

  • Review, comment and approval workflow
  • Versioned, immutable published timetables
  • Change impact analysis and diffs

Integrations and reports

Scheduled pulls from your SIS and HR systems, signed webhooks, and a staged CSV/XLSX import pipeline with validation before anything commits. Standard and exportable reports for utilization and workload.

  • SIS, HR and LMS connectors
  • Staged import with pre-commit validation
  • Room utilization and staff workload reports
