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.

We do this as part of a nightly export/script/import but I would like to see it built in. In that script we deal with odd cases like a dismissal excuses them for all later periods and if a student comes in tardy but was dismissed before it only goes up to the early dismissal codes. Not sure how all cases will be covered for everyone but it would be interesting to see something that has more logic in it.
