🗃️ ALE Configure Default Values for Creating Classes (Connect)

Here, you will learn how to use this interface to configure ‘create class’ defaults that will be used when scheduling a class from a course or when creating classes via Courses/Classes >> Create Class or All Classes >> Add Class button. When scheduling a class for a course, the data will autofill from the course and fill in any blanks using these default settings.  

1. Start by going to Configure Settings in the left navigation menu, then choose Default Settings/Values, and finally Create Class Default Values.

2. When scheduling a class for a course, the data will autofill from the course template first, then fill in any blanks using these default settings. You can choose which default fields to set or leave blank.
