Teaching venues may be defined as being of one or more particular types in FineTime. This information is used by FineTime to determine which courses may be taught at a particular venue. For example, you may wish to specify that the course Biology (Year 4) may be taught only in a biology lab, of which there are three, called Lab 1, Lab 2 and Lab 3. In this case, you might specify a venue type Biology Lab and specify that Lab 1, Lab 2 and Lab 3 are of type Biology Lab. You would also specify that course Biology (Year 4) requires a venue of type Biology Lab.
Choose School - Venue Types from the menu bar to invoke the (initially empty) Venue Types dialog. You can add, modify and delete items from the list of venue types as explained in section 2.1. The New Venue Type dialog (see Figure 2.2) has just a single field for you to enter the name of the venue type.
