Interval Totals Page

Use this page to view attendance interval information generated for a student by the Interval Totals calculation. The totals, which are based on the attendance views set up for your building, can apply to either the regular school year or summer school, depending on the environment selected.

The Totals panel includes two sections for displaying interval information:

Intervals	Shows totals for Membership and Code or Group. The values depend on the view selected.
Detail Day View Criteria	Displays the following for each criterion in the view: total attendance periods, the student's scheduled and unscheduled periods (or minutes, if applicable), and the number of attendance periods present and absent.

Prerequisites

Verify that the Interval Totals Calculation was run for the building, view, and intervals that apply to the totals you want to see.

To run the calculation, click the Additional Options icon, and then select Run Calculation.

Note:

When you run the Interval Totals Calculation from the Interval Totals page, Run Option's For Current Interval(s) Only is used to calculate the totals.

The Run Calculation option runs the Interval Totals Calculation and automatically selects the For Current Interval(s) Only as the Run Option selection. For more information refer to the Interval Totals Calculation Page.

If Day Totals were not recently calculated, you may need to run the Day Totals calculation before you run the Interval Totals calculation. To view the student's day totals, select Attendance > All > Student > Day Totals.
