“Promptitude is not only a duty, but is also a part of good manners; it is favorable to fortune, reputation, influence, and usefulness; a little attention and energy will form the habit, so as to make it easy and delightful.”: Charles Simmons

Rightly said by Charles, being prompt is the basic step that leads us to success.

The first time we learn this valuable lesson is our school life.

Probably why teachers pay a little “extra” attention when it comes to attendance!

Speaking of the backend of attendance, faculty usually carries out the work process manually.

There are schools where all attendance related work is done on paper i.e. the whole session attendance is stored in the register and at the end of the session, the reports are generated. It makes the daily attendance a very weary task for the faculties.

To overcome such old-fashioned processes, there are various software applications for attendance to speed up and make the attendance process easy.

“Online attendance management system” or “e-attendance” is one of them!

Online Attendance Management System is an application developed for student’s daily attendance in school. It helps to maintain the accurate record and generate summarized student attendance reports for the students by applying various criteria.

To explain the working of an online attendance system for school, I am explaining to you one of the highly reputed MasterSoft online attendance systems for students. It will help you get an idea of the best online attendance system in the market and simplify your expectations.

It operates like the following -

  • On entering the specified URL, the online class attendance system opens the screen with menus - Home page, About Us, Contact, User Manual, and School Registration.
  • Administrator or authorized person from the school will go for ‘School Registration’ and on registration; it generates username and password and sends it to the user through SMS and Email. Users will have to log in through this user name and password for attendance. Links will be provided to the user as per requirement.
  • Download and then upload the Excel sheet where student’s details would be filled in specified format. Students will be registered in bulk.
