Manage student and staff attendance effortlessly with ECAS’s robust Attendance Management Module. Whether you want manual mark‑ups, biometric integration, or smart card time-log, this system automates attendance tracking, reporting, and communication to save time and reduce errors.
Faculty/faculty dashboard shows the list of students registered for a particular course or class; faculty can simply select checkboxes for present students — those not checked are automatically considered absent, cutting redundant work.
Optionally send SMS alerts for present, absent, or late arrival directly from the attendance panel.
Attendance records are stored & updated in real time in the central database for every class and period.
Import attendance data from CSV or Excel files. Faculty can define period settings then upload files to mark attendance automatically.
Integrate with biometric devices, smart card readers, smart ID‑card systems to log time‑in / time‑out automatically. Helps with accurate time tracking and reduces manual errors.
Real-time updates: server / device logs are synced to the system to reflect attendance or time log changes immediately.
The system produces many report types to help administrators, teachers, and parents monitor attendance and participation. Some of the key reports include:
Daily / Monthly Registers: Full monthly attendance summary, class‑wise or subject‑wise.
Headcount Reports: Daily headcount period‑wise; faculty‑wise over month; class or subject summaries.
Time-Log Reports: In‑Out logs date‑wise or student‑wise; working hours summaries if both entry and exit times are captured.
Absentee Lists: Students absent on particular dates with contact details for follow up.
Course Progress / Attendance %: Charts showing student attendance over time, subject or course progress, and participation metrics.
Short Attendance Notifications: Lists of students with attendance below threshold; letters or call lists for parents.
