Attendance confirmation

Checking for previous attendance confirmations


When you raise a Change of Circumstance notification (CoC) that affects a previous liability period, the student will reappear on the attendance worklist for that period. This means a student may need attendance confirmations for more than one liability period at the same time. You'll not be able to submit an attendance code for the later liability period until you've confirmed the earlier period.

Use the Liability Period filter on the Attendance Worklist to check if there are any students who need a confirmation for an earlier period. For example, if you want to check for outstanding confirmations in liability period 1, filter on all students within this period.

The Outstanding Attendance Confirmations section will show any attendance confirmations you need to submit for those students. Students need a confirmation for each of the 3 periods. You can not submit a confirmation for a period that has not started yet.

The 3 periods are headed AC1, AC2, and AC3. A dropdown with attendance codes is available under each period for each student. If an attendance confirmation is outstanding, the dropdown will say Select. Use it to select the appropriate confirmation code for the student.

The Attendance tab of the Student History section of a student’s record shows their attendance confirmation history for each of the 3 periods. If you've confirmed attendance, it will be marked with AC. If they're still awaiting attendance confirmation, it will be marked with AAC.
