Student Attendance Audit Report
Use the Student Attendance Audit report to generate a roster detailing attendance by day and the average daily attendance and average daily membership by date range.
The report adjusts to reflect Clock In/Clock Out values if used when recording attendance.
Run the Student Attendance Audit Report
- Navigate to the System Reports page.
- Select Student Attendance Audit.
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 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 displays report output by period.
For more information about attendance modes, refer to Attendance Tracking Modes.
Menu options appear based on your attendance setup configuration. For the Use Default menu option to appear, FTEs must be set up and the “Use default settings” checkbox on the Attendance Preferences page must be selected. For the Daily or Meeting menu options to appear, the Daily or Meeting checkboxes on the Attendance Preferences page must be selected.
Attendance Conversion
Select the method by which attendance is calculated for which you want to run this report. Menu options appear based on the Attendance Mode selected.
- If the Attendance Mode of Use Defaults was selected, Use Defaults appears by default. There are no other menu options to choose from.
- If the Attendance Mode of Daily was selected, choose either Code to Day, Percent Time to Day, or Time to Day.
If the Attendance Mode of Meeting was selected, choose Percent Period to Day, Percent Time to Day, Period to Day, or Time to Day.
For more information about attendance conversions, refer to Attendance Conversions.
