Membership Reports
The membership reports use daily attendance to generate average daily attendance and average daily membership numbers that depend on the number of days a student has attended. These reports can be run in either Meeting or Daily mode.
Depending on the mode, there are two conversions that can be applied to the report. For Meeting mode, select either "Period to Day" or "Time to Day" attendance conversion. The "Period to Day" option uses the Period Items conversion, and the "Time to Day" option uses the Time Items conversion. For Daily mode, select either "Code to Day" or "Time to Day" attendance conversion. The "Code to Day" option uses the Code Items conversion, and the "Time to Day" option uses the Time Items conversion. For more information, refer to Attendance Conversions.
The reports adjust to reflect Time In and Time Out values if used when recording attendance.
To perform a membership audit by section, refer to Aggregate Membership Reports.
ADM/ADA by Date Report
The ADM/ADA by Date report produces membership and attendance information by date for selected students. This report uses the attendance codes and minutes entered into PowerSchool under the student's daily attendance information. The report then sums the total membership for a date and the total number of students attending, with a final average for the number of students having membership and attending for a given date range.

ADM/ADA by Student Report
The ADM/ADA by Student report generates membership and attendance information per student. This report uses the attendance codes or minutes entered into PowerSchool. The report then sums the total membership and attendance for each student for the given timeframe, with a final average for the number of students having membership and attending for a given date range.
To avoid slow processing time while running the ADA/ADM by Student report, please check the following:
If the reporting date range spans the entire year, try running the report for a smaller date range.
Check the selected grade levels when running this report. Instead of running the report for all grade levels, run the report only for those grade levels you would like to report on.
If you intend to run the report for a selection of students, ensure prior to executing the report that your report parameters are set to run for the current selection instead of all students.
When starting the report, choose to run the report ASAP instead of in the background.
Check the reporting queue for other jobs that are currently running. When multiple reporting jobs are running, all reports may run slower. Run the ADA/ADM by Student report when fewer users are processing reports.
Check the report queue for reports that are not responding. Often, these reports can prevent any other report from completing.
