Attendance "Not Required" (Extra option for Workshop Attendance)
It would be nice to have a "Not Required" option for attendance.
When a student receives RPL or CT they are not required to be in class for the day/unit. There may also be times where a student arranges another day/session to Catchup due to personal reasons.
It would be helpful to be able to choose "Not Required" and add a comment specifying why (i.e. CT, RPL, Catchup complete on date etc.) to avoid the overall attendance % drop.
We would like to setup workflow automation for our attendance warnings/notifications but we are unable to do so because there needs to be a way to avoid negative impacts against their attendance % in these situations where it is not due (negative % is caused when attendance is left blank or set to not attended). If we enable the automation some students will be receiving a notification/warning where it is not due.
A little background: We don't create workshops for individual units, generally we will have a number of workshops per course and each workshop contains a number of units. I would assume that other RTO's have a similar process or have the whole class as one workshop.
We can modify attendance for an entire class on a public holiday or when a training day switches to a different day for whatever reason. But there is no way to do this for a student who's training plan or course requirements may differ slightly due to previous experience or individual circumstance.
