The Convert Period Attendance feature allows you to automatically generate daily attendance from existing period attendance records.
When to Use This Feature
You may want to use this option when:
- Teachers and administrators need a single daily status instead of reviewing multiple periods, especially when daily attendance is not being recorded directly.
- Parents confirm that a student will be out for the remainder of the day after period attendance has already been marked.
- Summarizing attendance for reports that require a full-day presence or absence designation.
Steps to Convert Period Attendance to Daily Attendance
- Navigate to Admin > Attendance/Discipline > Period Attendance.
- For single records:
-
- Locate the “Daily” column of the record converting and select the type
-
For multiple records:
- Select the desired period attendance records that you would like to convert.
- Use the “Generate Daily” multi-action option.
- Review the generated daily attendance records and make any necessary adjustments
