Event Attendance - How to Take Attendance for a New Event
This tutorial will show you how to take attendance for a new event.
1.) Navigate to the Take Attendance tab. Here you will have the option to create an event for a Unit Group. If you would like to do so, click 'Yes.' If not, click 'No' and skip to step ____. You will only see this option if you have Unit Group access - otherwise, ignore this step.
Note: A Unit Group can be a variety of things from an RSO to a class.

7.) The UIN or netID you typed in should appear in the Event Attendees box with a green checkmark on the right hand side. If you see a red "X" instead of the green checkmark, your attendees are not being saved. Type in more UINs and netIDs to continue taking attendance.
