Taking Volunteer Attendance via Email with Scheduled Volunteers

Group

Right now, if you use the scheduling features for a group in Rock, you cannot also have a weekly attendance reminder email sent out for the same date. If someone is scheduled for a particular date, an attendance record is created in advance of that date, and the weekly attendance job will not run (it sees that attendance already exists, even if nobody is actually accounted for in the attendance).

This works fine if attendance for a scheduled group is taken via a check-in system. But if we are asking leaders to schedule their volunteers and then take attendance after the meeting and the email will not send.
