This table describes logic for triggering Negative Attendance syncing of this object.
| Action | Trigger |
|---|
| Post | When a new attendance event is verified and saved for a student. |
Calendar Attendance Type is = 004 or 004a OR Student Enrollment Type = 004 or 004a
When a student has two enrollments in the same school in the same school year, report from the enrollment service type in the following order: - P: Primary Enrollment
- S: Partial/Ancillary
- N: Special Ed Services
When a student has multiple enrollments in different schools, an attendance event is sent for each school. |
| Unknown attendance events do not send an event to Ed-Fi. The original post does not display until an excuseID is entered in the attendance table. |
| Do not send records when the student's enrollment is marked as a No Show or State Exclude. |
| Do not send records when attendance records are associated with a Calendar when the Exclude check box is checked. |
| Do not send a record when the Student has an enrollment Start Status = E: NON-SAIS DISTRICT USE ONLY! |
| A record sends for each distinct Date and Attendance Event Category Descriptor. |
| Do not send a record when the only attendance records associated with a date are marked as Tardy. |
| Do not send a record when the only attendance records associated with a date are marked as Exempt. |
| Do not send records when the Grade Level Exclude checkbox is marked in the grade level tied to the calendar in which the student is enrolled. |
Update the attendance event when new attendance is entered.
When an attendance status is changed, the first event must be deleted from Ed-Fi and a new record sent. The Attendance Event Category Descriptor is a primary key and does now allow updates in Ed-Fi. |
| Delete | Delete attendance record when all attendance is removed for the day. |
Object Triggering Logic for AOI Positive Attendance
Click here to expand...
Set Up AOI Positive Attendance
- For AOI positive attendance to be enabled in any school, System Administration > Attendance > Positive Attendance Preference MUST be set to Yes.
- Note: Toggling this to 'on' does nothing to preclude negative attendance or non-AOI positive attendance from working in the district.
- Student must be set up with a service type = T: AOI.
- Student should also have attendance type = 017.
- Positive Attendance checkbox must be checked on a course.
- The regular Attendance checkbox can remain checked and has no impact on reporting.
- When a student is reporting positive AOI attendance - any other type of attendance (when entered) is completely ignored.
- AOI positive attendance ONLY sends data when present minutes exist and are entered/saved for a valid student (no defaults for being present are sent as is done with Non-AOI).
- AOI positive attendance sends whatever duration is saved, even when the amount of present minutes exceeds the actual course (it is based entirely off of time in/time out entered).
- lunch minutes and passing minutes are a not looked at in any way for AOI positive attendance.
- Once AOI positive attendance is entered/saved (via either teacher's campus instruction positive attendance module or via student's positive attendance module) it automatically pushes to Ed-Fi, with no resync needed.
This table describes logic for triggering AOI Positive Attendance syncing of this object.
- Enrollment Service Type is = T: AOI
- Calendar Attendance Type is = 017 or Student Enrollment Type = 017
- Do not send records when the student's enrollment is marked as a No Show or State Exclude.
- Do not send records when attendance records are associated with a Calendar when the Exclude check box is checked.
- A record sends for each distinct Date and Attendance Event Category Descriptor.
- Do not send a record on a date where a student has '0' instructional minutes.
| Action | Trigger |
|---|
| Post | When a positive attendance amount is entered and saved to the attendance unit table. |
| Put | Update the attendance event when attendance events are changed/added. |
| Delete | Delete attendance record when all attendance is deleted for a day.- Delete attendance events that exist past the end date when a student's enrollment in a course or program is ended.
|
Object Triggering Logic for Non-AOI Positive Attendance
Click here to expand...
This table describes logic for triggering non-AOI Positive Attendance syncing of this object.
- Enrollment Service Type is NOT = T: AOI
- Calendar Attendance Type is = 017 or Student Enrollment Type = 017
- Do not send records when the student's enrollment is marked as a No Show or State Exclude.
- Do not send records when attendance records are associated with a Calendar when the Exclude check box is checked.
- A record sends for each distinct Date and Attendance Event Category Descriptor.
- Do not send a record on a date where a student has '0' instructional minutes.
- Only positive attendance records for the school that the student is actively enrolled in on a given date are sent.
| Action | Trigger |
|---|
| Post | Records are suppressed for the current day and sent in a batch at midnight of each day. |
| Put | Update the attendance event when attendance events are changed/added for any day that is not the current day. |
| Delete | Delete attendance record when all attendance is deleted for any day that is not the current day.- Delete attendance events that exist past the end date when a student's enrollment in a course or program is ended.
|
Object Triggering for Learning Modality
Click here to expand...
When a student is in blended learning group that is 100% virtual or there is a 'Virtual Code Override' day event on the calendar, then districts should not use the distance learning attendance codes on the virtual days. When the distance learning attendance codes are used in this scenario, it creates a duplicate learning modality record causing data issues at the state.
This table describes logic for triggering Learning Modality syncing of this object.
| Action | Trigger |
|---|
| Post | Records are sent daily for each day the student is marked as attending any part of the day remote. It sends through batch at midnight of the day the student is marked as attending any part of the day remote. |
| Post | Send attendance event when a blended learning group is added to the current day or previous days for a student that was previously 100% in person and is now remote for any portion of the day. Note: When the blended learning group is added for a future date, the attendance event is sent at midnight on the day the membership starts. |
| Post | Send attendance event when a 'Virtual Override' day event is added to the current day or a previous day on the calendar. Note: When the day event is added to a future date on the calendar, the attendance event is sent at midnight on the day of the event. |
| Put | Update the attendance event when attendance events are changed/added for any day the student spent any amount of the day remote. |
| Delete | Delete attendance record when all attendance is deleted for any day that the student attended any amount of the day remote. Note: When the student is 100% virtual due to a blended learning group or 'Virtual Override' day event and attendance records are deleted, only the 'Absent' attendance events are deleted. |
| Delete | Delete attendance record when student's blended learning group is updated moving the student to 100% in person when they were previously remote for any portion of the day. |
| Delete | Delete attendance record when the 'Virtual Override' day event is removed from the current day or a previous day on the calendar. |
School Exclude, Calendar Exclude, Resource Toggle and Resync Logic
This table describes the School Exclude, Calendar Exclude, Resource Toggle and Resync logic of this object.
| Action | Trigger |
|---|
| None | When a resource is toggled to 'OFF' after data has sent, all sent data remains in the ODS but no new data sends. |
| Resync | When a record is in the Ed-Fi Identity Mapping table and not in the ODS, it is deleted from the Ed-Fi Identity Mapping table. |
| Resync | When a record is in the ODS and it does not have a matching record in Campus or the Ed-Fi Identity Mapping table, it is deleted from the ODS. |
| Resync | When a mapping is changed in Resource Preferences, a resync needs to be done to reflect the changes. |
Natural Key Changes, Cascading Updates, and Deletes Logic
This table describes the Natural Key Changes/Cascading Updates and Deletes logic of this object.
| Action | Trigger |
|---|
| Post/Delete | When any part of the Natural Key Changes When the School ID changes, all data remains under the old number and a resync needs to be completed to populate data under the new number. The delete tool needs to be used to remove all data from the old School ID. When an Ed-Fi ID changes, this happens with the cascading deletes from the Ed-Fi ID Change trigger. - The natural key changes for Student and Sessions results in a delete/post of Student School Attendance Events.
- When the Attendance Status, Excuse or Date changes, a delete/post occurs.
|
Scope Year Logic
This table describes scope year logic of this object.
| Logic |
|---|
Attendance sends to the scope year for the school year the attendance dates are associated with based on the student's enrollment. - Data only sends for the years that have a valid configuration.

- The Attendance Calculation drop list value determines how a school calculates attendance for grades 1-8. Please note that grades 9-12 and kindergarten do not use this setting. (Calendar Information).
HW | Half Day/Whole Day |
| QD | Quarter Day |
- Calculation: Number of Instructional minutes attended / (Scheduled Instructional Minutes X FTE).
- Notes:
- Scheduled Instructional Minutes sum all instructional periods with period start/end times that a student has ANY active, non-state excluded, attendance taking course scheduled into it.
- Instructional Minutes Attended include any present minutes entered for a period on the attendance screen.
- When 'Attendance Calculation' = QD: Quarter Day, report as follows:

Grades 9-12

The following considerations are made:
- A course is only considered as attendance taking when it meets the following criteria:
- Course is active.
- Attendance checkbox is checked.
- State Exclude is unchecked.
- Course has a grading task where the credit value is greater than 0 or Null (Scheduling > Courses > Grading Tasks > Credit).
- A Section Student Detail record with a Career Readiness value of Yes cannot exist for the same course number in a different calendar on the given attendance date for the student.
- 4 day calendar
- 5 day calendar
Report students as followings for 004a: Negative Method 1 Attendance:
- Absence amount = FTE x (1 - ((The number of classes attended) / (The number of classes scheduled)))
- Value is reported as rounded UP to the nearest quarter (eg.: 1, .75, .50, .25, 0).
- It should be impossible to send a value of '0', since that would suggest that a student's negative absence record for a date is '0', meaning there was no negative attendance event.
- To be considered a class for the purposes of the calculation, the course needs to be scheduled into an instructional period, and the student actively scheduled into a course/section on a given attendance date.
- To be considered absent for a period, a valid absent code must be assigned. Present minutes are ignored, so when an absent code is assigned to a period, the whole period is considered absent, even when the student was present for the majority of the period.
Report Students as follows for For 004: Negative Method 2 Attendance:

The number of hours a student is expected to attend on a regular school day is based on the FTE value for the student:
- When the student has 100% FTE, the student is expected for 4 hours.
- When the student has 75% FTE, the student is expected for 3 hours.
- When the student has 50% FTE, the student is expected for 2 hours.
- When the student has 25% FTE, the student is expected for 1 hours.
- When the student has 00% FTE, the student is not expected for any hours.
Sum total attended minutes for the day:
- An attended period is a period that has no attendance code or has an attendance code with an Absent Status that is NOT 'Absent'.
- When a period has an attendance code with an Absent Status of Absent and present minutes are entered, the present minutes are included.
- When a period is between 55 - 60 minutes, then it should count as 60 minutes in the sum.
When total attended minutes is 0, report an absence equivalent to the student's FTE:
- Stop processing here as the resource is reporting.
- Student FTE reporting:
| Student's FTE | Absence to Report |
|---|
| 100 | 1 |
| 75 | .75 |
| 50 | .50 |
| 25 | .25 |
When total attended minutes divided by 60 is >= expected FTE hours, do not report resource at all:
- Stop processing here as resource should not report.
When total attended minutes divided by 60 is < expected FTE hours, complete the following:
- Sum total scheduled minutes for the day. Note: When a period is between 55 - 60 minutes, then it should count as 60 minutes in the sum.
- Calculate total scheduled hours by dividing total scheduled minutes by 60. Note: Do NOT round this value.
- When total scheduled hours is > expected FTE hours, then set scheduled minutes to expected FTE hours multiplied by 60. Else, leave scheduled minutes as the original calculation.
- Calculate percent attended by dividing total attended minutes by total scheduled minutes. Round to the second decimal place using normal rounding.
- Report absence value based on the student's FTE table below:
| 100% FTE | 75% FTE | 50% FTE | 25% FTE |

Excludes/Defaults
For all calculations:
Do not report data with the following State Exclude Flags:
- Enrollment State Exclude flag omits student from report.
- Calendar Exclude flag omits school from report.
- Grade Level State Exclude flag does not omit student from report.
For the calculations in Appendix A:
When FTE is missing, the default is = 1.

Sum total in person attended minutes and store this value:
- An in person attended period is a period that has no attendance code or has an attendance code with an Absent Status that is NOT Absent and the state code is NOT DLA or DLP.
- When a period has an attendance code with an Absent Status of Absent, the state code is NOT DLA or DLP and present minutes are entered, the present minutes should be included.
- When a period is between 55 - 60 minutes, then it should count as 60 minutes in the sum.
Calculate the number of in person hours a student has attended by dividing total in person attended minutes by 60.
- When in person attended hour count is greater than or equal to FTE hours, do not report resource at all:
- Stop processing here as resource should not report.
- When the student has 100% FTE, the student is expected for 4 hours.
- When the student has 75% FTE, the student is expected for 3 hours.
- When the student has 50% FTE, the student is expected for 2 hours.
- When the student has 25% FTE, the student is expected for 1 hours.
- When the student has 00% FTE, the student is not expected for any hours.
- When in person attended hour count is less than (<) FTE hours, complete the following:
- Calculate the total remaining hours student needs to attend by subtracting the in person attended hours (rounded down to nearest whole number) from the FTE expected hour count. Store this number for future use.
- Calculate the total attended minutes for the student using the Negative Method 2 calculation
- When total attended minutes divided by 60 is >= FTE hours, then multiply the total remaining hours student needs to attend by 25. Report this value as In Attendance - DL.
- Stop processing here as 'In Attendance - DL' should only report.
- Whentotal attended hours is less than (<) FTE
- Sum total distance learning attended minutes:
- A distance learning attended period is a period that has an attendance code with a state code of 'DLP'.
- When a period has an attendance code with a state code of 'DLA' and present minutes are entered, the present minutes should be included.
- When a period is between 55 - 60 minutes, then it should count as 60 minutes in the sum.
- Sum total scheduled minutes for the day. Note: when a period is between 55 - 60 minutes, then it should count as 60 minutes in the sum.
- Calculate total scheduled hours by dividing total scheduled minutes by 60. Note: Do NOT round this value.
- When total scheduled hours is > expected FTE hours, then set scheduled minutes to expected FTE hours multiplied by 60. Else, leave scheduled minutes as the original calculation.
- Report 'In Attendance - DL' by completing the following:
- Divide total distance learning attended minutes by total scheduled minutes and round to the second decimal place using normal rounding.
- Report 'In Attendance- DL' value based on the table below using percent attended and student's FTE. Continue processing to determine, what, if anything for Absence DL should report.
- When total attended minutes is >= total scheduled minutes, do nothing further. Stop processing here as no 'Absence - DL' record should report.
- When total attendance minutes is < total scheduled minutes, do the following:
- Calculate the number of in person absent and distance learning absent minutes a student has and store each value.
- In person absent minutes are when a student has an attendance code with an Absent Status of 'Absent' and the state code is NOT 'DLA'.
- When there are present minutes entered, then subtract the present minutes from the total period minutes and use that value in the sum.
- Distance learning absent minutes are when a student has an attendance code with a state code of 'DLA' .
- When there are present minutes entered, then subtract the present minutes from the total period minutes and use that value in the sum.
- When distance learning absent minutes = 0, then do nothing. Stop processing here as no 'Absence - DL' record should report
- Calculate percent attended by dividing total attended minutes by total scheduled minutes. Round to the second decimal place using normal rounding. Store this value.
- When in person absent minutes = 0, then do the following:
- Report 'Absence - DL' value based on the table below using percent attended and student's FTE (Note, this value should match what was reported in Event Duration * 100).
- Stop processing here as all values have reported.
- When both distance learning absent minutes and in person absent minutes are greater than 0, then do the following:
- Calculate in person percent absent by dividing in person absent minutes by total scheduled minutes
- When in person percent absent + percent attended is greater than or equal to 1, then do nothing.
- Stop processing here as no 'Absence - DL' record should report.
- When in person percent absent + percent attended is less than 1, then do the following:
- Calculate distance learning percent absent by subtracting both in person percent absent and percent attended from 1.
- Report 'Absence - DL' based on the table for the student's FTE:
