How to excuse students' absences due to school representation automatically

A student, or a group of students represent school in a competition and do not attend that day's classes. Select "Mass evaluation" while creating a New event. A "representation" type of absence note will be created for the participating students.

Parents are notified that their child is safe in the company of the accompanying teacher and the class teacher has no additional work excusing absent students.

Select the students and press OK.

The type of absence is either set on representation (if the link between event and absence type is set in the system) or set this type yourself.

Absence type "representation" is displayed in the students attendance.
