Recording a recurring absence event

You can record recurring absence events if a student will repeatedly be absent at a specified day or time, for example if they have a recurring medical appointment.

    The Recurring Absence Event window is displayed.
  3. Select the date that the absence event should start to recur in the Recur daily from field.
  4. Select the date that the absence event should stop recurring in the Until field.
  5. Select which days of the week the absence event should recur.
  6. Click .
    The absent event is scheduled to recur.
