Edit or Delete a Schedule

Introduction

This task is typically performed by Course Administrators and Tutors to edit or delete a Lecturecast recording for a specific lecture or series of lectures.

It involves:


  1. Searching for and selecting an event
  2. Deleting one or multiple schedules
  3. Edit a schedule


  • You can only edit or delete Lecturecast schedules which you created.
  • If you need to edit or delete a Lecturecast schedule which was created by another user, please contact the Lecturecast team using MyServices
  • When a CMIS room booking is cancelled, the corresponding Lecturecast schedule is also cancelled. A notification will be sent to the event owner informing them of this and it will need to be rescheduled in the Lecturecast Scheduler.


1. Search for and select an event

Click on this link (Lecturecast Scheduler)to access the Lecturecast scheduler. In the search bar enter a module code, select the 'Scheduled Event' tab and click the 'Search' button. In this example, I have used 'MSIN0028' and the default search type is 'Department/Module Code' and the current academic session is set to 22-23.

It is possible to delete a schedule directly from the ‘Events’ tab. However, it is easier to find events using the appropriate tab.

2. Deleting one or multiple schedules

On the 'Scheduled Event' tab, the search result should show you a list of scheduled events that you have created for the module code that you have entered in the search bar. 

You can select one or multiple checkboxes of the event that you want to unschedule and click the 'Unschedule' button to delete the schedule.

Click the 'Confirm' button and then click ‘OK’ to complete the deletion.

The event will no longer appear in the 'Scheduled Events' tab as it will now be available as an available event.

3. Edit a schedule

Select the checkbox of the event you want to edit and click on the 'Edit Schedule' button.

You can only edit one scheduled event at a time. If you have selected multiple event checkboxes, the 'Edit Schedule' button will be greyed out.
