Hello, when I try to add a future absence while logged in as a parent, the absence type dropdown list does not have any entries.
I can’t save the absence since it’s a required field. It does work when I add it from an administrator login.
Hi DorisG, welcome to the Gibbon community.
The future absence tool isn’t necessarily intended to be used by parents, since it allows a user to set absences for any student in the school and there is no approval/notification process. Generally, parents would contact the student’s pastoral teacher or reception and then the teacher or office admin would enter the absence for them. Hope this helps!
Thanks Sandra,
Yes that helps. Thanks!
