# Learnexify Batch
Once courses have been set up and added to a program, the next step in Learnexify is to configure batches. A batch represents an instance of a program, and each batch must be linked to a specific program.
In most cases, the course instances within a batch correspond directly to the course descriptions defined in the program. This helps maintain a structured and consistent learning path for learners based on the program setup.
### **How to Create a Batch:**
Before creating a batch, ensure that the program has already been properly set up and that courses/course descriptions have been added to it.
Once this is done, follow these steps:
Go to the **Dashboard** and open the side drawer menu. Click on **Programs** and then select **Manage batches.**

Click on the **Add batch button.** A form will appear where you need to enter the **basic batch details.**
Fill in the following fields:
- **Program Selection:** Select the program from the dropdown list
- **ID Number:** Enter the unique ID for the batch
- **Name:** Enter the name of the batch
- **Description:** Provide a brief description of the batch
- **Start Date:** Select the start date
- **End Date:** Select the end date
You will also see **two checkbox options:**
- **Create all course instances:**
When selected, this option automatically creates all course instances for the batch based on the program structure, removing the need for manual setup.
- **Automatically assign semester users:**
When selected, all users assigned to the semester will be automatically enrolled in the batch’s course instances, ensuring automatic user assignment without manual effort.
