Switching between Lightning and Classic

  • There are two Salesforce user interfaces - Classic and Lightning.

  • Lightning is the newer version and it is recommended all users use the Lightning interface to use Schoolworks.

  • Lightning brings a better user experience as well as a number of functional improvements particularly in the Reports system.

  • The database remains the same beneath the user interface - this switch only affects the way you interact with the database. You can toggle back and forth as much as you like.

  • This article explains how to switch between the two interfaces.
