Attendance Integrity: find and fix attendance gaps
Last updated 2026-06-13

Sometimes a child gets checked in but never checked out: a teacher forgets at pickup, an iPad dies, or a parent slips out quietly. Those unclosed records quietly throw off your attendance totals, your reports, and your CACFP meal claims. The Attendance Integrity page gathers them in one place so you can fix them quickly.
Where to find it
Open the Compliance section in the sidebar and choose Attendance Integrity. Lead teachers and up can see and clear these, not just the director, since whoever closes up the room usually notices the gaps first.
Clearing an attendance gap
- 1Open Compliance, then Attendance Integrity.
- 2Gaps are grouped by how old they are: Recent first, then Aging, then Stale (the oldest and most urgent).
- 3Each row shows the child, their room, when they checked in, and what is missing (usually a check-out).
- 4Set the time the child actually left to resolve the gap. If you genuinely cannot tell, mark it reviewed so it stops cluttering the list.
- 5The summary at the top tracks how many gaps are still open, the oldest one, and how many you have cleared.
If the check-out time you choose would stop a meal from counting toward CACFP, Neztio gives you a heads-up before you save, so a late fix does not quietly cost you a reimbursement.
Automatic close-out (optional)
By default, Neztio leaves these for you to review rather than closing them automatically. A center admin can turn on automatic close-out and set cutoff times in settings if you would rather have unclosed records resolved on a schedule.
