Attendance Report
After many hours and numerous service calls to skyward found there is no report within skyward that would break out attendance by day for a range of time (monthly) and then give totals for absence codes.
Need to run attendance data by month for administration. At this time no report will provide the "daily total" and then add up for a "monthly total" of # of students absent fpr what reasons. Reports are run by student not by day. By adding a range box to certain reports maybe able to accomplish this task.114 votes -
Add an additional code
If a student is late more than 20 minutes our district marks the student as absent. It would be so helpful if the tardy kiosk could be set up so that an additional code could be added in with set times each period to mark the student absent instead of tardy.
This enhancement would save time for attendance secretaries who now have to run reports and then change the students tardy to an absence.67 votes -
Ability to configure Hall Pass receipt info
Similar to the Tardy Pass it would be nice to alter wehat is included on the hall pass. We would like the alphakey and other id removed since this information is the basis of their network account. The hall pass as it is now can not be used. the ability to customize it same as tardy would solve this issue

Add Ability for Kiosk to Fill Missed Att. Periods
The intention of this request is to streamline the attendance entry process by enhancing the system to fill in attendance periods missed automatically. The goal is to enhance data quality and employee efficiency. The negative impact would be not utilizing the product or increased employee efforts to ensure data quality if component is used.
Ideally setup would be available for system to automatically fill in attendance periods missed prior to arrival or after student signs out. We would like for this component to be used for early dismissals and late arrivals.56 votes -
Create Option to Not Create Letters If Emailed
Attendance Letters are currently generated for all students who meet the criteria. Parents of those students may have email addresses and can receive attendance emails. At this time there is no way to not generate letters for students whose parents will already get attendance emails and those letters must be manually pulled from the batch that was generated. It would be nice to be able to flag a student whose parents will receive emails to not generate an attendance letter.
Ultimately the system would not generate an attendance letter for students whose parents will receive an email. This could be…

CLONE CALENDAR UTILITIES
Our District has MANY calendars for both public & parochial entities. Each year calendars for all entities schools & calendars within each entity within each school need to be set up. That being said one question that I continue to have is the utility for "Clone Calendar Info in Same Year." What does this utility actually do? I have tried to set up 1 calendar in 1 entity with all the calendar detail entered & then ideally I would like to clone this calendar to all the other entities & calendars but only the very basic term dates get cloned…

Absence/Tardy Thresholds for PASS+ Devices
There are a few critical items needed in the Positive Attendance features to work more effectively and efficiently. PASS+ devices already read the Skyward bell schedule. Add the functionality of being able to set thresholds to count entries as tardy X number of minutes after the period begins and count entries as absent after X number of minutes into the period. Currently it only marks students present and when students arrive in class after using the Tardy Kiosk in the office it removes their tardy and marks them Being able to mark students present tardy and absent (significantly late) with…

Additional ranges in Attendance Mass Change Utils
Would like to be able to add more than one day's attendance for a class or activity. At this time we can do one day at a time using Mass add for Single Day. Also we can only add attendance for a Class/Activity/Field Trip for one day. Going in one by one per student is very time consuming. If we could get a box for absence range...or by certain day of week that could be very helpful. EX: We have students that may leave our building during a certain period for 8 weeks and then return to finish the day.…

"DR NOTE REQUIRED"
This would be helpful if it could be seen in the attendance screen. While I do enter attendance through student profile I am usually on the enter attendance screen. This "Indicator would prove to be be
VERY helpful if it was visible on all of the attendance screens as sort of an indicator.
We have attendance rules like if a student has more than five absences in a semester their absences are unexcused w/o a Dr. note. Since there are no bells an whistles that sound when student reaches that threshhold. Having this indicator when entering attendance would be VERY…39 votes -
LETTER ATTENDANCE TYPE
Attendance Letters are sent by TYPE code only. We need the ability to send Attendance Letters by Type AND/OR Reason Codes. TYPE It works great for unexcused absences... but when we use the letters for CREDIT DENIAL WARNING based on 90% attendance, we need to pull by REASONS instead of Type because the 90% reason includes excused absences (dr appt, college visits, bad weather, military enlistment visit, etc. etc.--there are many).

Master Absence Report Include Student Status
It would be very helpful if the Master Absence Report included the ability to exclude Inactive Students. Our HS Principal uses this report and since she uses a range the results include both active and inactive students.

Add Day Number to Calendar report
It would be very helpful if you could add "DAY NUMBER" to the calendar report that currently lists the Calendar Days of the school year. Currently it lists the date and type of day but not the day number of the school year. When we use a snow day the day number of the school year changes so if we could see it listed on the report that would be great.

Add In/Out Times to Entry by Date Screen
Recently our staff have started to use the In/Out Minutes option for Attendance. They would love to be able to see that information on the Entry By Date screen without having to completely open up the student record. Is this something that can be added to that view?

Mass update grading periods
Please see the 2 attachments. I am trying to clone grading periods using WS\OF\AT\PS\UT\SC. I have updated the grading periods for campus 001. I am selecting to mass update "all entities" using 001. The entities all carry the same # of grading periods (same calendar terms YR & S1 & S2... all same throughout the district). It is not updating as requested. I have submitted this on SC#3297632 and they referred this to the ME. The ME said "It will set the Term start to the first grading period with that start term. It will set the Term stop to…

Percent Attendance by Teacher Needs Another Link
Nearly every single one of our 21 schools asks for Percent Attendance. We've obviously needed to update security access because the report is located under Educator Access Plus however telling them over and over again how to get to it has become a bit mind-boggling. Is there any way we could add the link to this report to ALSO show under Office\Attendance\Reports? Wouldn't that make sense? Yes it's teacher-based thus being here is cool but it's also teacher and grade level based from an office perspective. Out of convenience alone adding this report under the Attendance Reports would benefit everyone.…

Attendance taken by Alternate Instructor
When attendance is take by the Alternate Instructor. the primary instructor is still getting an email that they have not taken attendance. We would like to be able to have the Alternate Instructor record attendance without receiving this type of email for the Primary Instructor when technically the attendance for this course has already been taken.
