Up to about 30 names can be displayed on the same page,  The default radio button is set to Present - most people come to work most days.  The manager, supervisor, teacher explicitly chooses absent.

I tried to do this with look up field in the form but could not succeed.  This is a best approximation of how people work today.

then ensuing reports can calculate attendance, pay, leave records etc.

supervisor should be able to add/delete employee names, student names,whatever.

appreciate any help in this regard.

just started with creator, so pardon if asking very basic question.
