Attendance

These settings allow you to configure required attendance tracking for your students for each year. Attendance may be tracked in either days or hours via the Calendar and be viewed in various reports.

The Attendance configuration may be found by selecting the Settings button in the top application bar and navigating to Attendance under General Settings on the right-hand menu.

Configuration

Each year may have attendance tracking configured for it independently. Whenever you create a new year in Years & Terms, a corresponding entry will appear in the Attendance settings. By default, no attendance is required for a year.  To enable it, click on the year and alter its requirements.

As you can see, attendance may be tracked in either days or hours but not both. Whenever you save tracking in hours, the days requirement will be reset to 0 and vice versa. In order to disable attendance tracking for the year, simply set it back to 0.

Tracking Attendance

You may track attendance for a student in the Calendar. First, pick a day on which you would like to record attendance and a side-bar will appear with daily details.

If you are tracking attendance in days, you'll see a place to check off attendance for the day. If you are tracking attendance in hours, you'll see a text entry to record the hours. When either of these are marked, the indicator to the right will turn green and a checkmark will appear on the top left corner of the calendar date.

Reports

There are two custom reports available for attendance tracking:

• Attendance Summary - view a student's attendance by month.
• Detailed Attendance - view a student's daily attendance.

Attendance information is also available on the report card if it has been enabled for the corresponding year.
