[Year 12 SofDev] cases21

Tue May 15 10:01:11 EST 2007

Interesting discussion!

Cases21 will accept imports of third party attendance software in the form
of a CSV file. We use A+ from Human Edge, and it aggregates the session by
session recording of attendance into AM/PM entries. These are then imported
directly from a CSv file to special tables in Cases21 which are used for
Annual Reporting.

Not much use for developing the TT though!

Hello Anton

apart from agreeing with the 'yuk' experience with CASES, unless it has
changed recently doesn't it only do half-day attendance, not
period-by-period attendance?
