When migrating your school data to Arbor via Groupcall, we migrate the majority of the data you need to be census-compliant and effectively run your school site. However, there are some additional data points you may wish to input into Arbor, which we've outlined instructions for below.
Please note that some of these actions may require permissions that you don't have active on your profile. For information on adding the necessary permissions for users, see our article here.
Pay Scale Information
Entity Importer
This information can be added to your Arbor site using the Entity Importer. For details on how to do so, see our guidance here.
Manual entry
Adding pay scales requires either the Finance: Administer, Staff/HR: School HR: Policy, or the Staff Profile: All Staff: Contract Management permission.
To begin adding and updating pay scales, go to School > All Staff > HR Admin > Pay Scales and click the +Add button. From here, you can input all the necessary salary information for your staff. See our guidance on Pay Scales here for more information.
Future School Destinations
Adding Future Schools requires the School: General Admin: Administer permission.
To update this information, follow these steps:
- On the student's profile, scroll down to Education & Employment Status History
- Click the +Add button and select Future School
- Enter an Educational Institution (if you have already used an Educational Institution before, you can just select this in the dropdown menu) and add the Expected Entry Date. While you can enter the name of a new Educational institution here, we have a dedicated page where you can add Educational Institutions and include additional information. See our guidance here for more information.
- Click Add Future School.
