FAQ

  • I have done my aNewSpring course mapping to template per unit level, can I have activity across multiple units?
    No, when mapping to a unit you can only link the activity back with that activity. If you are looking to link activity across multiple units you will need to use Template per course or Template per unit of study/Subject.

  • My template in Ready LMS is not complete and I don’t want to publish it yet. can I still create a Course?
    No, sorry your template must be published in order to create a course.

  • When trying to create a course in the SMS, I can’t find my Ready LMS template.
    Please login to Ready LMS and publish the template. Only published templates will be displayed. 

  • I'm in Ready LMS and I can’t see the settings option.
    You need to have the Tenant role to be able to access the settings options within Ready LMS. 

  • I am units a clustered approach with units of study/Subjects. Is it possible to have the units linked to that unit of study/Subject updated as well?
    Yes, The units that are linked to the unit of study/Subject linked will be updated when that is updated.

  • How do I get the results to come back to the SMS?
    Results are auto-pushed back every hour through a batch job. You can however manually do a pull if you are doing testing

  • I have already created the users directly in Ready LMS manually rather than pushing them from the SMS. Is that ok?
    Yes. If they have been created manually they will auto link, if the following details match between the two system: 

    • Login (email)

    • First name

    • Middle name

    • Last name

    • The Ready LMS user does not have an existing external ID (linked to another party)

  • I am trying to link an existing LMS Course to the SMS. The Course is not displaying within the drop down menu
    Only LMS Courses without an external ID will be available for selection within the SMS. Please log in to Ready LMS and check if there is an existing External ID.
