-The reader may ask: How do officers and students browse the portal? Where are the step-by-step operating instructions on how to use Kofa? We are always tempted to answer: The menu navigation should be self-explanatory and it's quite easy to follow the menu prompts or flash messages which appear above page titles in a green, yellow or red box. For the students section this answer seems a bit over the top. We must indeed describe some browser pages and what their clickable actions are doing with the data. The reason is, that a lot of Kofa's functionality is embedded in view and utility methods and not only provided by the functionality of content components as described above.

-Pages, or more precisely web pages, are browser views which render (produce) HTML or PDF code to be displayed in a web browser or a pdf reader respectively. Views are dealing with request and response objects. In Kofa most pages are form pages which means they are views on data. These pages are either used to display, edit or add persistant data. Thus we can further distinguish display, edit and add form pages. Kofa is using the `Zope Formlib`_ package to auto-generate these forms.

-  Briefly, Zope Formlib is wedded to `Zope Schema`_, it provides display and input widgets (= views) for the fields defined in the Zope Schema package.

-Whereas display and add form pages are usually shared by officers and students, edit form pages are not. Students are not allowed to edit all of their data all the time.

In most cases, Kofa uses two different form pages which require different permissions: An `EditFormPage` requires the :py:class:`HandleStudent<waeup.kofa.students.permissions.HandleStudent>` permission and a `ManageFormPage` requires the :py:class:`ManageStudent<waeup.kofa.students.permissions.ManageStudent>` permission.

Has the student to be accommodated in a special hostel (`IHostel.special_handling`)? The resulting bed type string contains these information. Example: ``regular_female_fr`` means that a bed for a new female student in a regular hostel is wanted. If the student record allows to determine such a bed string, Kofa starts searching a proper bed space.

-Before Kofa searches for a free bed space, which meets the bed type criteria above, it checks if a bed space has already been allocated manually to the student. If so, then this bed is used, no matter whether the bed meets the criteria or not. (Theoretically, a male student can be accommodated in a hostel which is reserved for female students.) If no manually allocated bed space is found, Kofa searches for the right space. If bed booking is subject to a charge, Kofa also checks, if the student has entered a valid activation code, before delivering the bed coordinates to the student.
+The customizable utility method
+:py:meth:`getAccommodationDetails<waeup.kofa.students.utils.StudentsUtils.getAccommodationDetails>`
+composes a bed type string. Three criteria are checked: Is the
+student a new, a returning or a final year student? Is the student
+female or male? Has the student to be accommodated in a special
+hostel (`IHostel.special_handling`)? The resulting bed type string
+contains these information. Example: ``regular_female_fr`` means
+that a bed for a new female student in a regular hostel is wanted.
+If the student record allows to determine such a bed string, Kofa
+starts searching a proper bed space.
+
+Before Kofa searches for a free bed space, which meets the bed type
+criteria above, it checks if a bed space has already been allocated
+manually to the student. If so, then this bed is used, no matter
+whether the bed meets the criteria or not. (Theoretically, a male
+student can be accommodated in a hostel which is reserved for female
+students.) If no manually allocated bed space is found, Kofa
+searches for the right space. If bed booking is subject to a charge,
+Kofa also checks, if the student has entered a valid activation code,
+before delivering the bed coordinates to the student.

-Officers with  `ManageHostels` permission do see a 'Relocate student' link button which calls the `BedTicketRelocationPage`. This view relocates the student if student parameters or the bed type of the bed have changed. The `update` method of this view checks first if the student has a 'reserved' bed space. Students in reserved beds are never subject to relocation. It checks secondly if booking has been cancelled in the accommodation section but other bed space has been manually allocated after cancellation. Then this bed is used, no matter whether the bed meets the bed type criteria or not. If both checks are negative, Kofa searches for a free bed space, which meets the student's bed type criteria. Only if it finds a new and free bed space, it starts the relocation process by releasing the old bed, booking the new bed and designating the new bed in the bed ticket.
