The Change Requests screen allows the district and schools to determine what student information can be changed by users in Focus and whether the change needs approval before being updated in the system. In Setup > System Preferences, the district can set up a disclaimer to display when parents access the Child Info screen. In Users > Profiles, the district or schools set the disclaimer to display for the parent profile(s), select the information each profile has the permission to view and edit, and select whether those changes require approval by the school.
1. To set up the disclaimer to be displayed upon accessing the Child Info screen, in the Setup menu, click System Preferences. Note: Using a disclaimer is optional not required.
