2. Download the Illumine Mobile App
Install the Illumine mobile app on your phone to manage operations on the go. Staff and parents will also use these apps to access their respective accounts.
3. Customize Your School Profile
From your left-hand menu:
Go to: Settings → School Details
(click here)
Fill in the essential information:
School/Center Name
Address & Contact Info
Upload your Logo
(Optional) Add Bank Account Details — even dummy data is fine — to explore the Billing & Payments features.
4. Set Up Staff Roles and Access Control
Defining staff access levels ensures data security and smooth operation.
Go to: Settings → Access Control System
Here’s what you can do:
Assign existing roles (e.g., Teacher, Admin, Center Head) to each staff member.
Define module-wise access for each role (e.g., Attendance, Billing, Communication).
Create custom roles with tailored permissions for different responsibilities.
🎯 Pro Tip: Set roles before adding staff to ensure accurate permission mapping during onboarding.
✅ Ready for the Next Steps?
Once your app is installed and roles are configured, you’re all set to move forward with adding classrooms, staff, and students.
