The webapp has a login feature. The headofdepartment can mark the attendance . List of employees are rendered in the template without any issues , I want to mark attendance to the respective employees sorted in ascending order of their first_name .
That is when marking attendance employees will be listed in template, and to the right attendance form will be displayed for all the employees . It is saving only one object and not assigning the initial value for employee
