Prior to the implementation of the Administrative Record Editing custom feature, instructors held exclusive authority over the editing of student attendance records. This process often proved to have some flaws, particularly when dealing with large groups of students who were absent for events like sporting events for student athetes. To streamline this process and reduce the potential for errors, administrators requested the ability to modify student statuses across designated date ranges from a centralized location.

The new feature, currently availabe to Qwickly Attendance Pro licensees, offers several significant advantages: administrators can now efficiently make bulk changes to student attendance records, saving time and reducing the likelihood of errors. By centralizing the editing process, the accuracy of student records will be greatly improved. Additionally, the feature's flexibility allows administrators to handle a variety of attendance scenarios, such as absences due to athletic events or other unexpected circumstances.

Feature Implementation Details:

• Administrative Activation: The feature must be enabled at the administrative level.
• User Authorization: Administrators can select specific individuals who are authorized to make record changes.
• User Access List: A clear list will indicate which users have the necessary permissions.

This new functionality empowers administrators to manage student attendance records more effectively, providing a valuable tool for maintaining accurate academic data and improving overall administrative efficiency.

This new feature will be highlighted in our upcoming webinar, "What's New in Qwickly Attendance," scheduled for January 16, 2025. Don't miss this opportunity to learn more about this exciting update! Register now or visit our knowledge base article for additional details on implementation.
