  3. Click the Edit Scheme icon in the drop-down list beside the new copy to make revisions to it.

You can safely add new statuses to an existing scheme without impacting your attendance data. You can also edit the properties of your statuses, even if the scheme is being used in a register. When you save your changes, all associated attendance data is automatically updated.

  1. Click the triangle icon next to the attendance scheme you want to edit on the main Attendance Schemes page.
  2. Click on Edit Scheme.
