# Bulk recording tools

To make it easier to record bulk attendance, we've included some extra tools for attendance officers.

### **Single session/lesson recording**

At the top of each column is a **+** which when clicked will allow you to record marks/add notes for an entire column. When clicked you can select a mark to record for all students, or using the **BLANK** option, remove all marks for a column. To overwrite any existing marks, you need to select to **Overwrite existing marks and notes** option. If you'd like to just enter a note, you can click the option to add a note, and then select the **Insert note only** option:

### **Group recording over multiple days/lessons**

In certain instances, you may need to record a set of marks for a single student/group of students over a period of time. Using the date filter, set the period of time that you want to record the marks for, and then using the **Bulk fill** button at the top of the register, you are given similar options to the method above. **NB:** This button will not be visible if the amount of data to record would cause performance issues - you may need to do the bulk filling in chunks of time instead of the full date range.
