Attendance Count Report

Use the Attendance Count report to generate multi-day period-by-period attendance code information.

You can search on any absent or present attendance code that is stored in the database. However, instances where the absence of an attendance code indicates a presence is not searchable as an attendance code value is not stored in the database.

Run the Attendance Count Report

1. Navigate to the Attendance Count page.

2. Use the following table to enter information in the fields:

   Field	Description
   Attendance Mode	Select one the attendance recording methods for which you want to run this report. Use Defaults: 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 displays report output by period. Interval: Searches for and displays report output by interval. Time: Searches for and displays report output by time. Time/Interval: Searches for and displays report output by time and interval. For more information about attendance modes, see Attendance Tracking Modes. Menu options appear based on your attendance setup configuration.
