For each day, Chancery SMS calculates each student's daily attendance code for every school in the district. Chancery SMS calculates this code based on rules set up at each school [Setting up the daily attendance code calculation >>]. The resulting figures are used in reports for such purposes as school funding, communications to parents, and state reporting [Report results >>].
Since calculating daily attendance codes is a task that typically makes heavy demands of system processing power, Chancery SMS makes its calculations for the district at a scheduled time each day. Typically this is an off-peak time outside school hours. Chancery SMS calculates an attendance code for each student for each day only once and stores the result.
