The justification of absences allows training organizations to recover funding. Edusign allows you to identify who is absent and add supporting information and documents.
This article will guide you on marking students as absent if they were unable to do so themselves from their space.

On the student's card
From the student's profile, you can access all justified absences that are in progress, accepted, or refused in the Justified Absences sub-tab and Absences.
In the Justified Absences sub-tab, you can modify a justified absence.
It is also possible to access modification from the Absences sub-tab.
On the calendar view, you can modify the justified absence by clicking on the yellow banner representing the justified absence to open the modification window.
In the list view, you simply have to click on the reason for the absence to open the modification window.
4️⃣ Retrieve a justification document.
Whether the justified absence was added by you or accepted/refused following a student's request, the documents will be available in the future on the latter's profile.
To find them, go to students then click on the relevant student's name.
Finally, click on the Justified Absences tab and select Accepted Documents or Refused Documents.
It is also possible to go through the students sub-tab and click on the yellow banner to then download the document from the window that will open.
A final method is to click on Justified Absence directly on the attendance sheet and to download the document from the window that will then open.
