The Dialer Extract Report generates a file for importing into an attendance auto-dialer. Districts using Campus Messenger tools need to enable phone messaging; districts not using Campus Messenger need to work with their attendance dialer service.
The extract returns the names, phone numbers and a period string where the student was absent and the excuse is unknown (or, attendance entries that have been recorded by teachers but the attendance office has not yet assigned an excuse).
Dialer Extract Editor
Report Logic
The Dialer Extract prints the students who have attendance entries with a status of Absent and an Excuse of Unknown. These display in a yellow color on the student's attendance tab.
The report displays the following fields:
- Student Number
- Student Name
- Home Phone Number
- Grade Level
- Periods of absence
Only those absent periods that have an unknown excuse are included. For example, in the image below, the student is marked absent/unknown for all periods on April 17. The list of periods is included in a string of periods numbers or period names, if the calendar in which the report was generated named their periods non-numerically.
