Thanks for the reply, Tony. If it helps, the office staff are using Windows XP, so it's the Windows client accessing a database on a Mac Server. They do not recall having this trouble last year, when the database was on the Win2K3 server. Oddly, while our high school secretary is screaming bloody murder about the issue, our middle-school secretary (using the same client and accessing the same database) claims not to see the issue.
If you remember how you resolved it, please let me know. I'm going to ratchet up the level of concern with the JMC folks. Thanks!

It seems that the secretaries were not doing something correctly in the office portion of the program which caused this. I don't know how it works with Apple though. From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Timothy A. Limbert Sent: Thursday, January 29, 2009 11:01 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [info-tech] JMC attendance issue We're having an issue with JMC period attendance, where a teacher will send attendance for a period, but it doesn't come through to the office properly. The office shows that the teacher DID send attendance for that period, but the kids they counted absent don't show up as absent. I've witnessed the problem from both ends, so I know it's not user error. It happens seemingly randomly, with some teachers' attendance coming through fine, and doesn't even happen consistently with the same teachers. JMC acknowledges the problem, but claims it's a bug in Mac OS X 10.5 Server that they can't address. Of course, Apple claims it's a JMC software issue. Anybody have any suggestions? --- Timothy A.
