How to use the driving instructor diary in ADI Admin

Use the diary to see your lessons, driving tests and non-lesson events for the selected day.

This guide explains how the feature works inside ADI Admin, the diary and admin app for independent UK driving instructors.

Basic steps

1
Open the Diary page from the main app navigation.
2
Use the date controls to move between diary days.
3
Check each lesson card for the pupil, lesson time, duration and address details.
4
Upcoming driving tests appear as separate driving-test cards, so they are easy to spot alongside lessons.
5
Add non-lesson events for things such as holidays, appointments, training or car servicing. They can be timed or all day, and can cover one day or several days.
6
If a driving test date has passed without a result being recorded, it is shown as Awaiting result so you know it still needs updating.
7
Open or edit a lesson if the booking, payment status or notes need changing.
8
Tests marked as Cancelled are kept in test history but no longer appear as upcoming diary bookings.

These screens show how the diary helps you plan the day and check lesson details quickly.

Screenshots use demo data only. Names, addresses, lesson details, test details and receipts shown are examples, not real customer records.

See the selected day with lessons, driving tests, non-lesson events and daily navigation.

Use each lesson card to check practical details before the lesson starts.
