Configuring attendance hot reports

Attendance hot reports are available in both SynWeb and Synergetic. You can configure them to be available from a single class or for each student in the class.
Attendance hot reports are configured through Synergetic using:

  • User Report Form Editor
  • Configuration File Maintenance.

  1. Select Module > System > User Report Form Editor from the Synergetic main menu.

    You need to modify the RecordSelectionFormula to match the view or other SQL object referenced by the selected report.

    The hot report is ready to use. 


Configuring the Crystal Report

When configuring the Hot Report Config Key, just enter the report code and description and the parameters are not required as the application passes these through automatically.

The Crystal Report needs to be based on a stored procedure that takes the following parameters in order:

@FileYear INT,
@FileSemester INT,
@ClassCode VARCHAR(15),
@ID INT,
@ClassCampus VARCHAR(3) = '',
@StaffID int


A sample call for a hot will look as follows:

exec {yourstoredprocname}  {fileyear}, {filesemester}, {classcode}, {studentid}, {classcampus}, {staffid}

--SAMPLE CALL FOR CLASS
exec ucrspStudentProfile 2019, 1, 'PE08A', 0, '', 45647

--SAMPLE CALL FOR STUDENT
exec ucrspStudentProfile 2019, 1, 'PE08A', 12345, '', 45647
