The Absentee Module is your tool to automate and streamline the administration of absence notifications and responses between parents on a daily basis.
Automated Handling of Absentees
...
Requirements to implement Absentee Slips
The school creates a SQL view, uvEdSmart_Absentees, for EdSmart
...
to read each morning. The view needs to deliver these columns:
schoolStudentId
absenceDate
Where absence date is the date of absence - i.e. we can read it each morning and it gives us the unexplained absent students for the day.
That way we can query it along these lines;
Code Block |
---|
SELECT schoolStudentId
FROM uvEdSmart_Absentees
WHERE CONVERT(varchar, absenceDate, 101) = CONVERT(varchar, GETDATE(), 101); |
2. EdSmart Support enables Absentee Slips Module for the school in Admin and sets up read of data from the Absentee SQL view.
3. The school creates Parent Slip Template which will be sent to contacts for Absentees
...
4. The school turns on Absentees by going to Absentee Slips and setting up the following:
Set ‘Enable Absentee Slips’ to Yes
Choose Form Template for the Parent Slip that will be used
Setting the Slip Title
Choosing a folder to save Absentee Slips in
Choosing days of weeks to send Absentee Slips
...
5. Absentee Slips that are sent each day can be found under Parent/Student Slips, and responses can be found under the Responses tab.
