eymanage & eylog: Creating rooms/groups

Before you can start adding children and staff, you need to create the rooms that they’ll inhabit. Rooms/Groups represent the physical rooms you have in a nursery. On eylog, staff/child ratios are calculated on a room-by-room basis.

If you have both eymanage and eylog, you will need to create the rooms/groups on eymanage. Any changes will be reflected in eylog. 

Creating rooms on eymanage

1. In the top right click on  > System Settings.
2. Click on Rooms/Groups on the left.
3. Click the  icon in the top right to add a new room/group.
   
4. Click on Upload Photo to select a photo for this room, if you desire.
5. Give the room a Name and Description.
6. Enter the lower and upper age ranges (in months) for children in this room in Age Group Lower and Age Group Upper.
7. Enter the maximum number of children this room can hold in Capacity. 
8. Choose a Colour for this room from the colour picker.
9. Select which children and staff this room is assigned to by clicking on the Select Child and Select Staff fields.
10. Make sure Used for children sessions is ticked if you want this room to be selectable when booking sessions for children.
11. Click Save.
    

Creating groups on eylog (for eylog only customers)
