Explanation:

The ClassCode and Semester are used to uniquely identify the class where the swipes should be saved.

The SessionStart should follow the next format YYYYMMDD HHMM. This specifies the session's start date & time (again in military time). For example 20131104 1730 refers to November 4th 2013 at 5:30 PM.

The Status should be one of the attendance statuses defined on settings. For example, it could be present, absent, excused, left-early, tardy, etc…

The StudentId has to match an existent student ID in the system. The CardNumber has to match an existent card number associated with a student in the system. You must set at least one of these fields in order to import the roll call.

The SignInTime should follow the next format YYYYMMDD HHMM. This specifies the student's sign-in time. For example 20131104 1730 refers to November 4th 2013 at 5:30 PM.

The TotalTimeIn specifies the amount of minutes the student was in the session. For example, 10 specifies that the student was in the session for 10 minutes.

The Notes are attached to the student's roll call record.
