The PMP Setup screen is used by the district to customize the columns that display on the Academic PMP and Behavior PMP. The titles of the columns can be customized. Certain columns can be configured as free-form text, drop-down, or both. Columns can be enabled or disabled, and marked as required. The sort order of the columns can also be customized. This screen is view-only for teachers.
