Attendance Dates

The Attendance Date Range is a required entry for both the Start Date and the End Date.  Both dates must fall within the dates of the selected calendar in the Campus toolbar and the End Date must be on or after the entered Start Date.


The Modification Date Range is not required.  The date fields can be left blank in order to display all attendance modifications in the specified Attendance Date range. The Modification Date range can be entered to narrow the attendance information displayed in the report.


All dates fields can be entered in mmddyy format, or use the calendar icon to select a date.

Filter Criteria

To reduce report results, users can enter a Student Number, a Student State ID or select the name of the person who was responsible for modifying the attendance records. Additionally, one of the following options can also be selected:

  • Include only attendance audit records that are tied to a course section
  • Include all attendance audit records
  • Include only attendance audit records that are no longer tied to a course section.

When a student has attendance for a section and that section is deleted from the student's schedule, the attendance data is no longer tied to a course section, but still exists as an attendance event in the attendance audit table.
