How do I edit attendance statuses?
The Attendance tool is set up by default with the following attendance statuses in this order: Present, Absent, Excused, Late, and Left Early. These statuses can be removed and/or reordered on the Settings page in the Attendance tool.
Follow the steps below to edit your attendance statuses:
-
Navigate to the Attendance tool in your Sakai course site.
-
Click on the Settings tab at the top of the page.
-
In the Edit Status Settings section, drag and drop the statuses or change the number in the box to reorder the statuses.
-
Uncheck the box next to any attendance status that you do not want to track.
-
Press Save Settings.
-
Any changes you made will now be reflected when you take attendance or view attendance records.
