Preview of the School Details page
The School Details page of SBS Online contains reference information and a few preference options for the software. We currently have separate sections on one page that can be updated as required. For example, the report signatory name could be edited and then appear on the salary statements and exports of reports. The same information will be available here, but instead of scrolling downwards there will be separate tabs for each section that can be navigated across to view and edit the information accordingly.
This is how it looks currently:
About this blog series
As mentioned in the
previous blogs of this series, the redesign of our school budget management software SBS Online will greatly improve the user experience, make financial planning easier and save significant time when navigating across the menus.
We have always concentrated on functionality and performance over cosmetics. However we feel that it is about time SBS Online had a bit of a facelift.
In preparation for this we will post several blogs from now until the release to give you a taste of the differences and similarities between the current software and the new design.
Our support before, during and after release
We are working hard to ensure that the redesign will greatly improve the user experience, make your budgeting easier and save you time when navigating across the software.
It's also very important to us that the update causes minimal disruption to our users. We're excited for you to see the redesigned software in full and we're confident that this series of blogs will ensure that you are familiar with how it looks before it is even released!
The vast majority of menu items and sub-menu page locations will remain untouched. They may just appear in a different layout. We love that SBS Online is simple to use and intuitive and this will remain central to the redesign brief.
On the release day the SBS Online Service Desk team will be on hand as ever to help you with any queries.
