Hi Beth,
Apparently I was accidentally excluding the Attendance History screen topic when I was generating the What’s New document. I’ve corrected that error and reposted the doc, so if you download it again (you may need to clear your cache first) you should see the Attendance History section in there now.
To quickly sum up, the Attendance History screen displays performance and special access area attendance entries for a constituent, including attendance entries for member admission scans (i.e. the data in T_ATTENDANCE). You could, theoretically, come up with a custom process to insert data into that table for a list of constituent who attended an activity or event, but there is no standard way to do so right now without scanning a ticket or a membership. If you did want to create that custom process, one thing to keep in mind is that the description displayed on the Attendance History screen is not pulled directly from T_ATTENDANCE, it’s pulled from the performance or special access area tied to the attendance entry, so if you were inserting custom attendance entries, you would probably want to set up a special access area that you use just to reference the description.

Hi Kevin!
I assumed it was overly hopeful that non-ticketed things would be updated here. But it's not a big deal. The tab itself is exciting as it is. :)
Thank you so much for clarifying and updating the documentation!
