Description
The luTransport lookup table is used to define:
- specific bus routes that are used on one or more days by students
- general modes of transport that are used to and from your organisation.
These are used on the Transport tab of Current Student Maintenance. See Current Student Maintenance - Transport tab in the Current students manual.
Specific bus routes
You can set up bus routes that you want to charge students for. For example, two bus routes are defined because students are charged different amounts. Charging is achieved using the fee codes.
General modes of transport
You can define general modes of transport, such as car, taxi and so on.
For example, you can have a student that takes the bus most days but they travel by taxi on the other days. You can also record other information about the arrangement in the Extra Description field.
