1. Integrating Orah with your FACTS SIS Account.
Before we can analyze data, we need to establish a secure connection between your systems.
Creating your Orah account as the first Orah user from your School.
2. Setting up your Integration: Connect Orah to your FACTS SIS environment. - Setting up your FACTS SIS Integration
3. Understanding Scopes & Objects: A look at what data (Students, Classes, Attendance) Orah pulls.
4. Setting up Single Sign-On (SSO): Enable your staff to log in using their existing credentials. - Single Sign-on Orah
2. User & Access Management
Now that the pipes are connected, we need to decide who can access the system and what they can see.
Staff, Student & Contact Setup: Create staff roles (Admin vs. View-only), manage your student and contact database, and invite users to the platform.
3. Data & Branding
To get accurate insights, we need to organize your Staff, Student, and Contact database.
Manage student tags, customize Orah’s appearance, and configure your preferred login method.
4. Attendance Logic & Workflow
This is where the "Insights" come to life. We map your Veracross attendance codes to Orah's logic.
Mapping Reasons: Ensure a "Late" in Veracross reflects as a "Late" in Orah.
Configuring Passes: Define why students are moving (e.g., Medical, Late).
5. Hardware & Checkpoints
If you are tracking physical movement on campus, you'll need to set up your kiosks.
Setting up a Checkpoint Kiosk: Configure a dedicated station for student check-ins.
Next Steps
Now that your configuration is complete, you are ready to move on to the Actual Usage phase, which is standard across all platforms.
