Why can't I mark attendance for a day

Find out why the buttons are switched off on a date.

1 min readAttendance → Mark attendanceFor: School admin, Teacher

The page shows the reason in a message, and the buttons are switched off.

The reasons

  • The date is in the future. Pick today or an earlier day.
  • The day is not a working day, such as a Saturday. A school admin sets working days in Attendance rules.
  • The day is a school holiday. A school admin can remove it in School holidays.
  • You do not have permission to mark. You see the statuses as labels only.
