Consecutive Absences Report

In daily mode, the report searches for students with consecutive absences codes in their daily attendance record. In meeting mode, the report searches each student's attendance records period by period for consecutive absence codes.

    Description

    Attendance Mode

    Use the pop-up menu to select one the attendance recording methods for which you want to run this report.

    • Use Default: Searches for and displays report output based on FTE. By default, this menu option is selected. If your school uses more than one FTE to differentiate students, such as full time and part time, and you want to run the report for those sets of students, the only way to effectively run these groupings with different modes and conversion items is to use the default.
    • Daily: Searches for and displays report output by day.
    • Meeting: Searches for and display report output by period.

    For more information about attendance modes, see Attendance Overview.
