Change a class status

When you add a training class, its status is set to Open by default. It will remain in the Open status until you change the status to Completed, even if the start date and time of class have already passed.

Note: 

  • You must have the full version of PM to change a class status.

    For information on upgrading to the full version of PM, go to https://www.eso.com/pm-demo/ and fill out the fields to request a demonstration and speak with a sales representative.

  • When you change the status to Completed, the class and its credits, skills, and credentials automatically appear in the staff members’ individual records, on the Classes and Certifications & Credentials tabs, in the appropriate sections.

  1. Which version of the module opens depends on whether your agency or department has purchased the PM Basic or full version of the PM module.

    1. Do one of the following.

      • (If you are already working in the ESO Suite) Click the Home icon in the upper left corner of the screen.

        1. In a web browser, go to https://www.esosuite.net/EsoSuite.

          The ESO Suite login screen appears.

        2. Enter your user name, password, and agency name, then click Let's Go.

          If MFA is enabled, the Multi-factor authentication dialog box appears, displaying one or more methods you can use to verify your login credentials. The number of methods that appear in the dialog box depends on what MFA methods your ESO Suite administrators enabled in the Admin module.

          Click graphics
          to open them.

          Information on enabling MFA and specific MFA methods is available in the Admin module online help, in Configure multiple-factor authentication.

          Note: If your ESO Suite administrators have disabled MFA ("opted-out"), this dialog does not appear.

        3. (If the Multi-factor authentication dialog box appears) Depending on which buttons appear in the dialog box, verify your login in one of the following ways.

          1. Click MFA verification via authenticator app.

            The dialog box updates with boxes for entering the numbers of the authentication code, and the ESO Suite sends an authentication code to the authenticator application installed on your device.

          2. Open your authenticator application and note the authentication code currently displayed.

          3. Enter the authentication code displayed in the authenticator application.

          4. Click Log In.

          SMS

          1. Click MFA verification via SMS.

            The dialog box updates with boxes for entering the numbers of the authentication code, and the ESO Suite sends an authentication code to the phone number recorded in your PM records and identified with MFA codes.

          2. Enter the authentication code sent to your MFA-registered phone number.

          3. Click Log In.

          1. Click MFA verification via email.

            The dialog box updates with boxes for entering the numbers of the authentication code, and the ESO Suite sends an authentication code to your agency or department email address, recorded in your PM records.

          2. Enter the authentication code sent to your agency or department email address.

          3. Click Log In.

      The ESO Suite landing screen appears.

      Click graphics
      to open them.

      Note: If MFA is enabled, you can access and manage your MFA options through the PM module, on the Settings > Account page, as described in Manage a user account. If your agency or department has enabled MFA but has not purchased the full-featured version of the PM module, you can access your own MFA settings by clicking Change my Multi-Factor Authentication settings on the landing screen, then using the Settings > Account page that appears. If your agency has not enabled MFA, the Change my Multi-Factor Authentication settings link does not appear on the landing screen.

    2. On the top side of the home screen, click PM.

      Tip: If your screen or browser window is too narrow to display all your agency's ESO Suite module icons, an options icon appears on the right side of the icon bar. If you click the options icon, a menu appears containing additional module icons.

      A list of all the personnel in the PM module appears, displayed in a grid format.

      PM (full version) PM Basic

      Note: If you can access the full-featured PM module, you can view all your own information in it. The amount of information you can edit in the PM module depends on what roles and permissions your ESO Suite administrator assigned to your user account.

      Information on user accounts, roles, and permissions is available in Manage a user account.

  2. (If you are not adding a new class) Open the record of the training class you want to work with, as described in Find and open an existing training class.

    The training class record opens and displays class details, set to the Class details bookmark in the left pane.

  3. In the upper left corner of the page, click Complete this class.

    A dialog box appears, prompting you for confirmation to complete the class, and indicating how many students have passed the class, and other class information.

  4. Click Complete Class.

    At the top of the page, the class heading updates with the message that the class is completed.

    When you return to the Training screen later, in the Status column, the green Open indicator for the class changes to a black Completed indicator.
