Scheduling
genXtimeTable
genXtimeTable is genXarc's academic scheduling product, built for schools and colleges: build the timetable once, catch conflicts across teachers, rooms, sections, and departments before publishing, and keep everyone synchronised when substitutions or changes happen.
Who it’s for
Schools, colleges, and educational institutions that need to build and maintain academic timetables across multiple departments, teachers, rooms, and sections without conflicts or outdated printed schedules.
Key features
- Conflict detection across teachers, rooms, sections, and departments before publishing
- Substitution workflow (teacher unavailability → HOD approval) that doesn't overwrite the permanent timetable
- Role-specific dashboards for dean, principal, HOD, teacher, and student
- Push notifications for schedule and substitution updates
- Excel-based bulk user provisioning for onboarding teachers and students
- Centralised academic calendar management, including terms, holidays, and department-specific overrides
Problems it solves
- Timetables that look correct on paper but conflict once teachers, rooms, and sections are all accounted for
- Double-booked rooms or teachers only discovered after publishing
- Coordinating substitutions when a teacher is unavailable, without disrupting the permanent schedule
- Printed or spreadsheet-based timetables becoming outdated the moment something changes
- Onboarding large numbers of teachers and students manually, one account at a time
How it works
- Build the institution's timetable across departments, teachers, rooms, and sections
- The system checks for conflicts involving teachers, rooms, sections, and departments before the timetable is published
- When a teacher declares unavailability, a substitution request goes to the HOD for approval
- Approved substitutions apply only to the relevant date, without overwriting the permanent timetable
- Dean, principal, HOD, teacher, and student each see a role-specific dashboard and schedule view
- Schedule and substitution updates are pushed to teachers and students as they happen
Frequently asked questions
- Who is genXtimeTable built for?
- genXtimeTable is built for schools, colleges, and educational institutions that need to manage academic timetables across multiple departments, teachers, rooms, and sections.
- Does genXtimeTable handle teacher substitutions?
- Yes. A teacher can declare unavailability, which creates a substitution request for HOD approval. Once approved, the substitution applies only to that date and does not overwrite the permanent timetable.
- Can different roles in the institution see different things?
- Yes. Dean, principal, HOD, teacher, and student each get role-specific access and dashboards rather than one shared interface.
- Can we onboard a large number of teachers and students at once?
- Yes. genXtimeTable supports Excel-based bulk user provisioning, so accounts don't need to be created one at a time.
