Working with custom pages, panels, and fields

Adding pages, panels, fields, and objects to a custom schema in PowerSchool SMS involves the following steps, in strict order:

1 Add a page [>>].
2 Add a panel to the custom page [>>].
3 Add fields to the custom panel [>>].
4 Turn off the PowerSchool SMS Task Manager to enhance performance while applying pending changes to custom pages [>>].
5 Apply pending changes for custom schemas [>>].
6 Publish and apply pending changes for custom pages [>>].
7 Reset the Internet Information Server (IIS) [>>].
8 Turn on the PowerSchool SMS Task Manager to regenerate the data access views [>>].

Other optional steps include grouping custom pages to create a collapsible menu in the control bar [>>] and adding objects to a panel [>>].

Note: If a custom schema is locked [>>], only the schema creator can make changes to the schema. Other customizers can extend the schema, but cannot edit it directly or delete it, and can add new panels to pages in the locked schema but cannot change existing panels and fields.
