## Managing Teacher Substitutions: Assigning a Substitute for a Teacher's Daily Schedule

 

To assign a substitute for another teacher's daily schedule, navigate to the main calendar - **Day View - By Staff** - to assign a substitute for another teacher's entire day's worth of appointments and sessions. Click **Show filters** at the top-left of the calendar.

In the '**Filter a staff' field**, specify the staff for whom you'd like to assign a substitute.

To assign a substitute for the entire day's worth of appointments and sessions, click the **Batch Update** button on the calendar.

 

![3-May-27-2023-05-51-23-3772-PM](https://kb.opus1.io/hs-fs/hubfs/3-May-27-2023-05-51-23-3772-PM.png?width=688&height=375&name=3-May-27-2023-05-51-23-3772-PM.png)

 

Toggle on **Update staff** and specify the name of the substitute in the field directly below. To proceed with assigning a substitute for the entire day, click **PROCEED WITH APPOINTMENT**.

 

![4-May-27-2023-05-52-33-8380-PM](https://kb.opus1.io/hs-fs/hubfs/4-May-27-2023-05-52-33-8380-PM.png?width=688&height=340&name=4-May-27-2023-05-52-33-8380-PM.png)
