Initialize Today’s Attendance

Choose Attendance, Enter Attendance, Initialize Today’s Attendance. Each day’s attendance is kept in a Temporary Attendance Register that is changed throughout the entry of attendance information. Once all of the information has been entered and the Reports of Classes Missed have been printed, the file must be cleared for the next day’s use. Clearing the file designates all students as initially present, pending the entry of information to the contrary. The process also sets the teachers’ files to indicate that attendance reports have not yet been given to the office.

Caution: Failing to clear the file will leave all students absent who were absent since the file was last cleared.
