This screen will allow you to select which attendance mode(s) you want to use with time in/out. Most likely you will have schools that use one or the other. In that case, choose both daily and meeting reports.

Daily Report – Used for schools that utilize daily attendance mode

Meeting Report – Used for schools that utilize meeting/period attendance mode

Select which mode(s) you would like to configure and click Next

Report Installation

Daily Reports

Meeting Reports

These 2 screens allow you to download the required reports based on attendance mode. Simply follow the on-screen instructions to download and install the reporting files. (There are 2 report files per attendance mode. If you are using both Daily and Meeting reports you should have 4 files downloaded.)

Q: What are these reports used for?

A: These files allow us to write back the specific time in and out data. Unfortunately, there is currently no way to run these reports automatically, and must be done manually. (More info on this is below.) Remember that attendance codes and the comments field will continue to update automatically in near real-time.

Q: Can I use the time in/out for certain schools only?

A: Yes! When you map your schools in the PowerSchool app you can choose which schools to map specifically for time in/out.

Installing the Report Files

The report files must be installed within your PowerSchool module. If you are using time in/out for more than one school you will want to make sure that you install these report files under your district office location. This ensures that when the report is run it will run for all schools with time in/out active.

Conversely, if you only plan to use time in/out for one school simply install the report files under that specific school in your PowerSchool module.
