## Closure

Closure is used to close (lock) attendance data of one or more people at once. Closing can be done in bulk through **Attendance report** or right in the personal report of a selected person.

It is divided into three functions - **Closure**, **Confirmation** and **Check**.

### **Check**

This function is used to indicate that the attendance has been verified and its closure can subsequently be managed. This indication does not close the data; all values can still be edited or deleted. The data is only locked during the closure process, which is described in the next chapter.

1.  Select the person(s) for whom you wish to mark a check
    
2.  Click the **Closure**
