4. Click the Type drop-down to select the appropriate staff type for a substitute.
5. Click Save. Now, when you enter an attendance record for a teacher, you can select this staff member to be a substitute.

   Note: If the substitute is a long-term substitute for a teacher, you can make the substitute a secondary teacher on the sections assigned to the primary teacher. This way, the substitute can access the gradebook to take daily and period attendance for the sections they are covering.
