Can you please clarify what TARDY means? Is it late to class? We don't use this expression in the UK.

Why is is that STATUS and EXCUSED are right by each other...shouldn't there just be one drop down menu that states:  Present, Absent (excused), Absent (unexcused), etc.  On top of that it doesn't really make sense for it to be excused or not excused.  If it were in an actual school setting and grades were determined by attendance I suppose it might matter then.  But we just need to know who was here and who wasn't.  We can add notes to someone's account for special circumstances.  I hope that makes sense!

I guess I just liked V1 attendance MUCH better.  It was simple and much less confusing.  You just marked them here or not and hit save.

I agree with Mathew David Reedy.  Under the old iclass version, our coaches took attendance on ipads and it was very efficient.  The next day we always ran an attendance report showing which class roll was not taken.  There are consequences for coaches that do not take roll in our gym.

Does it mean we would not be able to use the original attendance site once we transfer to V2? I wasn't aware of that? What would happen to our attendance data? Where and how do we run an attendance report in V2?

The original attendance taking feature was very easy to use and works very well. I'm surprise it's being changed.

Also, it was a good feature that each coach can only see their own classes and take attendance for those. It was simple and worked very well.

I think the options with the new attendance works great. I just wish I could access the system on my IPhone and IPad like I did in version 1. That is a big disappointment.

Is there a way to print an attendance report for one student? I have a parent that wants to know the attendance of her child over the last three months. I would like to just look it up and print it out for her.

YES PLEASE WORK ON IPAD or IPHONE INTEGRATION!  We would LOVE to go paperless!!  Sorry for the all caps, but it would help a ton!!!

I can access v2 via my iPhone but its not exactly usable.  Taking attendance via a phone browser would be a great feature. 

iClassPro is still working on brainstorming a new attendance module for V2, we get a lot of feedback that V1 was a good start. However we are looking for some more specifics.

There seems to be a lot if interest in iphone/ipad integration and it's definitely in the plans- but requires a relatively simple interface for the new module. In addition individuals have requested excused/unexcused option and an option to view a single student's attendance history (with a start and end date).

I have done some brainstorming myself and come up with what I believe is a  useful attendance function using the calendar (see Calendar Attendance Function under Feature Requests). If there are additional features you would like to see in the new attendance module, please put them in the feature request section!

Thank you!

It's 2011, let's get IPHONE and IPAD intergrated!

Well summer is over now.  We start a new gym season next Monday.  Any chance there is a new Attendance Module coming out between now and then??  I need a quick easy way for coaches and teachers to input attendance.  The current choice is either use paper rolls or have them go through a 6 step process taking valuable time out of classes. (besides asking for mistakes to be made)

The attendance module was one of the PRIMARY reasons we chose IClassPro over JackRabbit's software.  I am beginning to really doubt my decision.  This is SAAS.  (Software Application As Service)  it should not take months and months to implement functionality that already existed in previous versions.

I can't be the only gym owner that sees the value in accurate attendance.   

With accurate attendance, we can then ramp up our after class customer service by running "We missed you" email campaigns.  We can track and show the parents what time they are actually paying for.  We can use this information for a considerable number of things.

The old version was SO much better than the V2.  Each coach took roll using iPads.  The next morning we would run reports showing who didn't take roll the previous day (that report is no longer available in V2).  Also, with the OLD version the family page would show all of the adsenses of a student at a glance versus having to click through each week.  At a glance is much better than having to constantly skip through the weeks.  Sometimes I need to go back more than 3 months and it is a pain.  Please hurry up and return to the old way so we can quit wasting paper and money having someone take the roll sheets and enter adsenses into iclass.

Lol, I second Judy's thoughts as well!!

Matthew, Judy,   it is so glad to see that other owners/users see the urgency for a functional attendance module.

Ok, Iclass guys/gals, what's the word?

I'm with you Jeff.  I've had the opportunity to test many systems over the past 40 years, as well as being an accountant, and would love to be a tester.  To me the simpler the better.

Yes I agree with Judy the simpler the better. Just the two options of present or absent would do our gym just fine.
