Keep Over‑Recovered Students Visible in Attendance Recovery Bank
Currently, when a student recovers more attendance minutes or absences than they are eligible for, their record can disappear from the Attendance Recovery Bank (ARB). This makes it difficult for schools and districts to identify and correct attendance recovery issues.
This idea proposes keeping all students visible on the ARB page, even when Total Attendance Minutes Available (TMA) or Total Recoverable Absences Available (TAA) become negative. Negative values would be clearly highlighted in red and explained with tooltips, helping administrators quickly spot over-recovery situations, understand why they occurred, and take corrective action without losing visibility into the student’s data.

Hello, this work item has been completed and was released on 5/19/26. Here are the relevant revision notes:
Attendance > Attendance Recovery Bank - Students whose Total Minutes Available (TMA) or Recoverable Absences Available (TAA) computed to a negative number were excluded from the Attendance Recovery Bank, preventing administrators from identifying students with over-recovered absences. The Attendance Recovery Bank now displays all students including those with negative TMA or TAA values, which render in red with a minus sign to indicate that the student has utilized more minutes than they earned; the TMA and TAA column headers include tooltips directing administrators to review ATT records and verify ADA make-up codes in District Settings. See Attendance Recovery & Supplemental Attendance.

Also, if we could get a column added that listed the dates that Attendance Recovery was used to Makeup Absences - that would be amazing!

Even if we had the ability to toggle these students on and off OR if these students showed up shaded a different color. But to not have them show is very confusing!
