Incorrect Attendance on Report Card
Problem: On the report card, my attendance appears to be counting presents rather than absences.
Solution: Check the FTE Code and change the conversion settings.
- School Management> Attendance> Full-Time Equivalencies.
- Click on the Name of the FTE Definition and the screen below opens. The name shown is an example. It may be different for your school. Make sure the rest of the screen is set this way and submit.
- School Management> Attendance> Attendance Conversions. Click the Code conversion option (see below)
- Set the values to present =1, half days = 0.5, quarter days (if you use them) = 0.75 and all absences = 0. You need to enter values for all of your attendance codes. You may have more, or fewer, than the ones listed in the illustration below. Note tardy values =1 because the kid is considered late not absent.
