Tool Search: ADM and ADA Detail
This report calculates Average Daily Membership (ADM) and Average Daily Attendance (ADA) based on the selected calculation options. The report summarizes the data by student, grade, and calendar for the specified date range.
The state of Iowa uses attendance calculations aligned with SIF reporting requirements. For this reason, an additional radio button is available under Calculation Options for Iowa districts. The information below is specific to the generation of this report with the IA-specific attendance option selected. Please see the core ADM and ADA Detail article for additional information about the tool and the other calculation options.

The following defines the options available on the ADM and ADA Detail Report.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Which date range would you like to include in the report? | Entered dates are used to narrow the report results to include only attendance information for students enrolled during those dates. Dates can be entered by typing in the field in mmddyy format or by using the calendar icon to select a date. |
| Ad hoc Filter | When an existing Ad hoc Filter contains students to include in the report or enrollment information for a specific date range, this information can be selected from the Ad hoc Filter dropdown list. Only those students in the filter will be included in the report. |
| Report Type | The ADM/ADA Report can be generated in Summary or Detail Format. The Detail format lists the same information as the Summary report type, but includes student names and attendance data. |
| Calculation Options | Selection indicates the logic used to calculate ADM and ADA.
Please see the core ADM and ADA Detail article for additional information about the tool and the other calculation options. |
| Add Signature Line at the End of the Report | A signature line can be added at the end of the report when desired, where the principal or superintendent signs and dates the information, making the attendance data official. |
| Report Format | Determines the type of file in which the report generates:
|
| Calendar Selection | At least one calendar must be selected to generate the report. For verification of reported attendance data, it may be best to generate the report one calendar at a time. |
| Report Generation | The report can be generated immediately using the Generate Extract button. When selecting a larger amount of data (several calendars, a large date range, etc.), use the Submit to Batch button to specify when the report is generated. See the Batch Queue article for more information. |
