Admin Portal (Super Admin)

Overview

The Super Admin portal manages the SUMS platform across schools: onboarding institutions, packages, subscriptions, global templates, and platform-wide reports—not day-to-day classroom operations.

Logging in

Use Admin login: Login.aspx?type=Admin (no school scid required for platform admin accounts).

Core responsibilities

Area Typical screens
School onboarding School Master, School Group, Contact Master
Packages & subscription Package Master, Subscription Master
Users & roles User Master, Role Master (admin module type)
Communication templates SMS/Email template masters
Board & reference data Board Master, Status Master
Leaderboards / gamification Leaderboard configuration
Copy modules Copy module setup between schools

Menus are loaded from Module Master with ModuleType = 1 (Admin) per admin role.

Onboard a new school (high level)

  1. Create School Group if part of a chain.
  2. Add School Master record (name, code, contact, branding).
  3. Assign Package and Subscription dates.
  4. Create school admin user with School portal role.
  5. Provide school-specific Login URL with encrypted scid.
  6. Copy standard module/menu setup from template school if using copy tools.

Templates and credits

  • Configure SMS credits and sender IDs per school or globally.
  • Maintain email SMTP defaults (schools may override).
  • Manage WhatsApp bridge school mapping (IT operations).

Reports

Platform usage, subscription expiry, school-wise activity, and billing reports (exact names vary by deployment).

Best practices

  • Never share Super Admin credentials with school staff.
  • Use subscription end dates to trigger renewal workflows.
  • Document each school’s package features (LMS, hostel, etc.) in subscription notes.
