Stage 5: Generate & Manual Allocation

3. Manual Allocation

Apart from Auto-Generate, user can manually add the section to the desired slot. Manual slot in can be done in Timetable Output. User will use this process for few reasons: 

1. Specific Time, Day and Room is known
2. Alternative Method without using Specific Time Slot and Specific Room at the Constraint Box
3. Specified request for sections and lecturer 
4. Total Control by the User

User can slot section/s manually into the Timetable Output by choosing the slot (Day, Time and Room) and then right click to Add Course.
