Attendance worklist export

The previous chapters explained how to submit attendance confirmations manually on SIS. This works well for individual students and smaller groups. If you have many students, you may want to submit the confirmations in bulk instead.

To do this, you should first export the attendance worklist file from SIS. You can then add your confirmations and import the file back into SIS to update all student records at once.

1. Go to the Attendance Worklist page and run a search to find the students you want to submit confirmations for.
   
   
2. Once you have your search results, select Filter and Export Results. This will open the Student Information Export page.

3. You can only export the results in the Summary Student Information format. This will be selected by default. When you choose to export the results, you'll see your filter criteria on screen but they'll be in read-only format.

4. Select the Attendance Confirmation Report radio button. The filename will default to Attendance Confirmation Report. You can overtype this with another filename if you like.
   
   
5. Select Export Results to export the file. You can export up to 50,000 records. If your search has returned more, you'll get an error message.
   
   
6. Alternatively, select Cancel to cancel the export and return to the attendance worklist.

You will not be able to see what liability period the attendance confirmation applies to in the exported file.

If you do not want the final column of the export to include any saved attendance codes, use the Attendance Status filter and set it to Attendance Unconfirmed.
