Removed FOCUS-50714 - Discipline: Adding Attendance by Period Enhancement to Referral Actions
This update enhances the Discipline module by expanding the functionality of the existing Detention Periods field on referral actions. Previously, when an action included an attendance code, the system applied that code to the entire day, regardless of periods selected in the Detention Periods field.
With this enhancement:
- If specific periods are selected in the Detention Periods field, the attendance code is applied only to those periods.
- If no periods are selected, the attendance code continues to apply to all periods (preserving current behavior).
- The Detention Periods field dynamically pulls period options from the current schools bell schedule.
- By default, no additional permissions are granted for this field, ensuring existing workflows remain unchanged until districts enable it.
This change provides greater accuracy for recording discipline-related attendance while avoiding unnecessary full-day attendance overrides.
