The next items are not found on the standard setup options document:

  • Team- Absentees by Teams can be selected by clicking in the cell and choosing the team(s).
  • Exclude Program - This option allows certain programs to be excluded from the report.
  • Skip Codes- These are non-attendance codes that you do not want to be considered for the report. Be sure to select all numeric codes for the same alpha code. For example, if you select 03 P to be skipped then you must also select 04, 11, 34, 37, 40, 42, 45, and 47.
  • Skip L Codes - Check to NOT list students who have leave codes in Student Master and have dropped from your school.
  • Check Today's Abs Only to limit the list of students to those who have records on the to date.
  • Print Detail - Print attendance history with the letters.
  • Show Remote Only
  • If your school does NOT offer any remote classes, this feature does not apply.
  • As a school that offers remote classes, by checking this box the list of students will be those from other schools in your district that attend classes on your campus. Students from your school will not be on the list if this box is checked.
  • Check Do Not Print Previously Printed Letters to not include the students who have already had a letter printed for this letter title.

Click Letters to choose a letter that corresponds to the number of absences. To do this, check the row of the Letter column that corresponds with the number of absences, then click on the row in the blank space under the Letter Selections column to choose the letter name needed. Also place a check in the Letter column.
