How Do I Take Attendance?
Welcome to the Attendance Mode guide! This document will help you navigate the attendance features in FinalForms, ensuring you can easily track and manage attendance for your team. Let's get started!
Attendance Mode Overview
Attendance Mode lets you efficiently take attendance for your sessions. You can toggle between different modes to suit your needs and ensure accurate record-keeping.
Taking Attendance
To take attendance, follow these simple steps:
Click and input the session title, date, time, and team (Varsity, JV, etc.).
When calling roll, click for present and for absent.
If a student is marked absent, select whether the absence is excused or unexcused.
Add notes as needed to provide context.
Upon clicking the appropriate button, an email will be sent to the athlete's parents or guardians.
Helpful Tips
Here are some tips to make your attendance tracking even smoother:
If a student arrives late to practice and you wish to update their status, simply click the appropriate button.
If you discover that a student you marked as absent and unexcused has a valid excuse, click to change their status from unexcused to excused.
Click on any student's name to view their individual attendance history.
To view a past attendance session, click on the relevant option.
For comprehensive reports, go to the reports section and click EXPORT, then select either MISSED PRACTICES or ATTENDANCE SESSIONS.
Eligibility Status
As with all modes, athlete rows reflect their eligibility status. All athletes should be marked in green. If there are any eligibility problems, use the alert feature to notify the athlete and their parents or guardians while taking attendance.
We hope this guide helps you make the most of the Attendance Mode in FinalForms. Happy tracking!
