Cause
This situation is the expected system behaviour.
Setting someone as authorized to teach an item does not impede that instructor from teaching other Item's Class. Instead, it can block other instructors from teaching in that item this instructor is Authorized to Teach.
Resolution
If you want to make sure that only Authorized to Teach Instructors will be available in the selectable list of instructors, please note the following:
- Navigate to the Item >
- Access tab 'Instructors' >
- Add Instructors as Authorized to Teach. If you set Instructors as Authorized to teach that item via Instructors Menu ( People > Instructors > "authorized to teach" tab), that instructor will already be on the list.
- IMPORTANT: Check the option "Check Instructor Authorisation" checkbox >
- Apply changes.
After this if you navigate to a Class scheduled for this item, only specific instructor will be available in list of instructors.
