Importing attendance

If registers were kept on paper or in a spreadsheet, you can import them instead of typing them in. Importing needs a paid plan.

Importing

  1. Open Attendance → Import.
  2. Choose whether you are importing student, staff or exam attendance.
  3. Download the template. It comes already filled in with the names for the class, staff or exam you chose.
  4. Fill in each person's mark: P, A, L or HD.
  5. Upload the file.

What happens to mistakes

Academium saves every valid mark, and lists any problems by name, for example an unknown student or a mark that is not P, A, L or HD. Fix those rows and import them again.

Common issues

Some marks were not saved. Check the list of problems Academium showed. The usual causes are a typing mistake in a mark, or a student who is not in that class.

Import is not available. Importing attendance needs a paid plan.
