Hi @tpoirot

We recommend you try using the Attendance Tracking and Notification, which can be used in combination with the basic PowerSchool attendance setup. The additional setup elements allow for tracking truant attendance using a combination of thresholds and triggers.

 

Each time a student meets or exceeds a specific threshold, a notification record is created in the PowerSchool database. The notification records can be used to print attendance letters for students with truant attendance.

For more information, you can review the document Attendance Tracking and Notification. Let us know if you are looking for something else or in case of further queries.

Hello!

 

 We have users that are looking for this automation also. 

I was able to read the information on the link provided on Tracking and Notifications yet fail to see any subject on automation. Please let me know if this is something that is available, or something to add to my PS Wishlist. 

Thank you.
