What do I have to pay attention to when creating or changing activities in a template?

Each activity has its own functionality, often with separate configuration options. Most of the selection options are obvious.

• You must tick one or more actors for each activity. They are then authorized to carry out the activity. This does imply that they have to be linked to the dossier, which is done in the coaching groups screen or the step-by-step plan.
• Monitoring rules can be attached to each activity: deadlines that are shown as coloured spots (‘traffic lights’) and announcements on the dashboard.
• Triggers can be attached to each activity: these are either notifications or visibility rules. Notifications in particular must be generated beforehand in the e-mail templates screen.
• One special activity is the ‘Report’ type. This has two actors, namely a provider (generally the student) and an assessor (the dossier coach or the administrator). The step therefore has two phases: one for handing in and one for assessing. If the assessor chooses ‘Changes/more details required’, the activity reverts to the hand-in phase. The report activity has its own notification options and a link to a plagiarism scan (optional).
• Specific activities have specific configuration options.
