This object provides attendance for a student in the context of a SectionInfo object. It is used to represent the final/official attendance that has been assigned to a student. Only one agent in a zone should generate events for this object. That agent is responsible for receiving and validating all StudentPeriodAttendance events and for generating a corresponding OfficialStudentPeriodAttendance event once any unofficial events have been processed.

This object defines the marking periods (TermInfo) that marks (StudentSectionMarks) are recorded in for a particular section (SectionInfo) and lists the types of marks (MarkTypeInfo) that are valid for that marking period (TermInfo).

This object provides attendance for a student in the context of a SectionInfo object. This object is used by all agents in a zone that provide period attendance, but don't have the logic to determine whether or not they have sufficient rights to override attendance from another user or system. Agents that represent a system that can validate attendance based on, among other things, its source, should subscribe to StudentPeriodAttendance events to collect "suggested" attendance changes from the zone, and should then publish "accepted" attendance changes as OfficialStudentPeriodAttendance events. A rejected change would result in an event that reverts the system that generated the rejected event back to its previous state or to some other state that represents the correct "official" attendance.

The GUID of the student that this attendance applies to.

The GUID of the section that this attendance applies to.

The school where the attendance was recorded. Somewhat redundant, needed for requests.

The date of the attendance event.

The period within which attendance is being reported, e.g. "4D". Conditional on the SectionInfo object having MeetingTime elements. If one or more are defined for the Section, this element is required.

The time the student entered or returned to this class.

The time the student left this class.

The local attendance code.

An audit trail to help determine who entered this attendance event and when.

Information about which staff member created this attendance record.

The role of the staff member for that created this attendance record.

Unique identifier of the user that created the attendance record. This will depend on the user and the source. The preferred identifier would be a RefId for a StaffPersonal, StudentContact, or StudentPersonal Object. However, the user may not be associated with any of these SIF objects. In that case a unique Id given by the source should be used.

The date and time of this attendance record was created.

This element contains the comments that are relevant to this attendance record.

This object contains the marks entered for a student in a class section for a specific marking period.

A GUID that identifies an instance of this object. This RefId is new for 2.7M and MUST be supported like other objects that have a RefId (i.e. it is the key for the object). The alternate keys MUST continue to be supported.
