Roll Settings

General Settings

Attendance Admin

  • Gives staff access to the Attendance Records page and Daily Reconciliation

  • Lets staff use locked roll codes when taking or editing a roll

  • To let teachers update their own submitted rolls without seeing locked roll codes, keep Edit pass, location, gating, roll records on and turn Attendance Admin off for their role. Those teachers will no longer see Attendance Records or Daily Reconciliation; admins still can.


Passes/Excuses

End and Activate Passes

allows staff users to :

  • to add a new pass

  • to activate and end the pass

  • to edit the actual start and end time

  • to reschedule/reactivate the pass

Note - Even without this access staff can delete or edit pass attributes like location, address, scheduled time, transportation, notes, files etc.

Note - Even with this permission enabled, a staff user may still see the error "action performed on pass is not permitted for a staff user" when trying to end a pass. This happens when the pass type's workflow names a specific approver or role for ending the pass. Check Pass Settings > the pass type > Workflow. The workflow setting takes precedence over the role permission, so the pass can only be ended by the person or role the workflow names. If the pass type has no Workflow section, or its workflow doesn't name an approver or role, also check whether a deactivated pass type has the same name as the one being ended, then contact support if the message persists.

Process Pass Requests

allows staff users to :

  • to access Summary > On Pass list on Homeboard

  • to access the Request Page

  • get the link to the Public Request Pass

  • able to Endrose, Decline, Resubmit, Approve a pass request

Pass Settings

Note - Pass terminology can only be edited by a staff user with admin rights
