Welcome to Brilliyo

Congratulations on choosing Brilliyo as your Learning Management System! This guide will walk you through the complete setup process from account creation to managing your institution and branches.

Step 1: Create Your Account

  2. Select "Institute" from the registration type selector
  3. Fill in the required information:
    • Full Name: Your full name (only alphabets and spaces)
    • Mobile Number: Your 10-digit mobile number
  4. Click "Send OTP"
  5. Check your WhatsApp for a 6-digit OTP (valid for 2 minutes)
  6. Enter the OTP in the verification field
  7. Click "Verify & Register"

Alternative: Google Sign-Up

For faster registration, you can use Google authentication:

  1. Click the "Sign Up" button
  2. Select your registration type (Institute or Student)
  3. Click on "Continue with Google"
  4. Select your Google account
  5. Grant necessary permissions
  6. You'll be automatically registered and redirected to your dashboard

Step 2: Set Up Your First Institute

After successful registration, you'll be redirected to the admin panel. Now it's time to officially register your institute:

Register Your Institute

  1. Navigate to the "Institutes" tab (default view after login)
  2. You'll see a registration form with your contact information displayed
  3. Enter your Institute Name in the provided field
  4. Click "Sign up" to register your institute
  5. Your institute will be created and appear in the institutes list below

Important: Institute names must be unique. The system will prevent duplicate institute names.

Managing Multiple Institutes

Brilliyo allows you to manage multiple institutes under one account:

  • All your institutes are listed in the institutes table
  • Each institute shows its name, contact info, and available actions
  • You can edit institute names or delete institutes as needed

Step 3: Add Branches to Your Institute

Once your institute is registered, you can add multiple branches for different locations:

Accessing Branch Management

  1. Click on the "Branches" tab in the admin panel
  2. You'll see the branch management interface

Creating a New Branch

  1. In the "Add Branch" form, fill in the following details:
    • Branch Name: Name of your branch (e.g., "Main Campus", "North Branch")
    • Branch ID: Unique identifier for the branch
    • Branch Registration Number: Official registration number
    • Branch Address: Complete physical address
    • Branch Mobile Number: Contact number for this branch
    • Branch Email: Email address for this branch
  2. Click "Add Branch" to create the branch
  3. The new branch will appear in the branches table below

Branch Accounting Setup

Each branch requires accounting ledgers for financial management:

  • After creating a branch, you'll see a "Create Default Ledgers" button
  • Click this button to automatically create:
    • Default account groups
    • Essential ledgers for fee collection, expenses, and more
  • Once created, the button changes to indicate ledgers exist
  • This setup is essential before you can process fees and transactions

Managing Branches

For each branch, you can:

  • View: See complete branch details and information
  • Edit: Update branch information like address, contact details
  • Delete: Remove branches that are no longer needed

Dashboard Overview

Your admin dashboard provides quick access to:

  • Student enrollment statistics across all branches
  • Fee collection summary and pending payments
  • Attendance overview for all classes
  • Recent activities and updates
  • Quick action buttons for common tasks
