This allows one teacher in your studio to fill in for another, without the need to reassign the student to the substitute. We hope that this change will improve the ease of use for multi-teacher studios by allowing you to more easily make scheduling adjustments when a teacher is absent.<\/p>\n<p>This feature comes with a number of related improvements:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Make-up credits can be used and will correctly deduct from the number of make-up credits owed by the original teacher.<\/li>\n<li>Payroll will automatically be adjusted in most cases. For ambiguous cases (such as teachers who are paid a percentage of studio revenue with students who pay a flat monthly rate), stub entries will automatically be inserted in the teacher&rsquo;s payroll log which you can update accordingly.<\/li>\n<li>Substitute teachers can be assigned from either the \u00ab\u00a0<strong>Event Details<\/strong>\u00a0\u00bb page or by drag and dropping from the calendar. (To use the \u00ab\u00a0<strong>Drag and Drop<\/strong>\u00a0\u00bb option <strong>you must toggle this behavior<\/strong> from the buttons located at the bottom of the calendar page.)<\/li>\n<li>Studio reports have been updated so that \u00ab\u00a0<strong>Billable Hours<\/strong>\u00a0\u00bb and \u00ab\u00a0<strong>Lessons Taught<\/strong>\u00a0\u00bb are attributed to the teacher who actually taught the lesson.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Currently this feature is opt-in. <\/b>If you wish to help us beta test this feature, please email <a class=\"moz-txt-link-abbreviated\" href=\"mailto:support@mymusicstaff.com\">support@mymusicstaff.com<\/a> and we&rsquo;ll get this enabled for your studio!<\/p>\n<p>Other changes this week:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>When a new item is added to the Download Library, the \u00ab\u00a0<strong>Notify Students<\/strong>\u00a0\u00bb checkbox is now <strong>always unselected by default<\/strong> to reduce the risk of accidentally notifying your students before you&rsquo;re ready to do so.<\/li>\n<li>The sign-up email that you receive when a new student signs up now correctly states that the student profile is \u00ab\u00a0<strong>Active<\/strong>\u00a0\u00bb if you have \u00ab\u00a0<strong>Auto-Active<\/strong>\u00a0\u00bb enabled for your sign-up page.<\/li>\n<li>On the sign-up page the \u00ab\u00a0<strong>Gender<\/strong>\u00a0\u00bb field has been renamed \u00ab\u00a0<strong>Student Gender<\/strong>\u00a0\u00bb for clarity.<\/li>\n<li>On mobile devices the invoice drop-down menu should no longer be cut-off if there is only one invoice in the family list.<\/li>\n<li>We adjusted the <strong>Student Login<\/strong> email template so that the <strong>login URL is always a clickable hyperlink<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>We added an option to <strong>delete\/deactivate students in bulk<\/strong> from the \u00ab\u00a0<strong>Tools<\/strong>\u00a0\u00bb menu on the <strong>Student List<\/strong> page.<\/li>\n<li>We fixed an issue with the \u00ab\u00a0<strong>Make-Up Credits (Unscheduled)<\/strong>\u00a0\u00bb option that would cause it to display all zeros in some circumstances.<\/li>\n<li>We adjusted the behavior of the bulk attendance options (on the <strong>Home<\/strong> page) so that make-up credits won&rsquo;t be issued in bulk for events in categories that do not allow make-up credits.<\/li>\n<li>We made a small adjustment to the auto-invoice behavior: If your studio&rsquo;s \u00ab\u00a0<strong>Negative Invoices<\/strong>\u00a0\u00bb setting is set to \u00ab\u00a0S<strong>how as $0.00 due<\/strong>\u00a0\u00bb and \u00ab\u00a0<strong>$0 invoices<\/strong>\u00a0\u00bb is disabled in your Auto-Invoice settings, then <strong>no invoices will be generated for families with a positive balance<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>Invoices generated in <strong>Expanded<\/strong> format will now display scheduled lessons that require a make-up credit (they will appear as $0 line items).<\/li>\n<li>If you&rsquo;re using a My Music Staff hosted website, your \u00ab\u00a0<strong>Blog<\/strong>\u00a0\u00bb page can now have some content at the top of the page that will be displayed above the blog posts.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Did you know? \u00a0<\/strong>It\u2019s no longer necessary to use the checkboxes to download the \u201cInvoice Details\u201c.
