6.14 Student Information Systems Working Group

The Student Information Systems Working Group provides maximum interoperability between K-12 applications that need to exchange SIS information such as student, teacher, school, and enrollment using SIF by designing SIF data objects that are easy to understand, implement and extend, and by making the communication between applications as efficient as possible by ensuring that only the minimum required amount of data is exchanged in each transaction.

6.14.1 AttendanceCodeInfo

This object provides information about a particular attendance code, allows applications to synchronize each other's attendance code tables, or provides a dynamic list of attendance codes.

SIF_Events are reported for this object.
