Canteen roll call sheet

Taking attendance

1. Menu Canteen → Roll call sheet.
2. Pick the meal date (defaults to today).
3. The list shows every pupil enrolled in the canteen that day, along with their dietary profile — shown in red if the pupil has a PAI (individual medical care plan).
4. For each pupil, select a status from the drop-down:
   • Present
   • Absent (reported)
   • Absent (unreported)
   • Absent (justified)
5. Click Save attendance.

No status is preselected by default: each row must be set explicitly.

Re-recording attendance

Attendance recording is idempotent: you can return to an already-recorded date’s sheet and change statuses at any time — saving simply overwrites the previous values. There is no cut-off time and attendance is never locked.

Canteen exports

Menu Canteen → Exports. This page lets you download a CSV file listing active enrolled pupils (last name, first name, academic year, dietary profile, days, billing mode, rate, currency, status). It is not an export of day-by-day recorded attendance — only the list of active enrolments is exported at this time.

Billing preview

The monthly amount due per pupil is estimated from meals counted as Present and Absent (unreported) for the month — both statuses remain billable, unlike Absent (reported) and Absent (justified).
