Entering new absences

If you wish to enter a new absence for a student, check the box to the left of the relevant student's name and click on the <absent> button.

You can now enter the details of the absence. You will generally not change the preset start and end times of the period. If there is a suitable reason of absence, enter it. You can leave the field empty if you do not know why the student is absent. You also have the possibility to enter an explanatory text.

The students entered will now also be displayed in the list of absent students.

Furthermore you have the possibility in WebUntis to mark in the editing mode if the absence of a student has been reported to a parent or legal guardian or not. Just click on the editing symbol under <Absent students> and then choose the option <Notified to>.

Alternatively, you can enter an absence for a single student by simply checking the box to the left of the student's name.

Note: Abences need to be checked

If no students are absent or all absent students have been entered click on the <Absences checked> button. The system notes that the lesson has been edited and it is no longer displayed in the ' Open lessons' list.
