Notes concerning this program
Days prior to the beginning of school will have the letter C as well as holidays.
Weekends will have dashes and also for students who enrolled after school started or exited the next month.
The highlighted yellow number 1 on the report means the student is recorded as being present with an excused absence. So a yellow 1 is an excused present.
Students that have a check out with no check in and then a Dr excuse are not a highlighted yellow cell on the report.

Q & A
Q - In Posting Attendance, we have been using code 66 (N Medical Quarantine) for COVID positive students but this is showing up as a zero (unexcused) on the LA 4 report. We thought that code 66 (N Medical Quarantine) was an excused absence and therefore, should be showing up as a yellow 1.
A - On the setup box, the Skip Codes field defaults to D, P. Choose the 66 code and the 0 will change to 1 in the report.
