Centers can setup bus run schedules to other centers or locations for pickup or drop-off service. Setting up bus run schedules allows students to be associated to buses and appear on bus rosters.
Key Point: Bus schedules are setup at a center level and not at the business level. Bus setup at the business level will not apply to centers underneath. Schools must be setup and Yes must be selected in the Year-Round Schedule to allow collapsible billing to function in the system.
