Available Classes
We will be able to see if there are any classes, that we are able to check people into, when we go to the Check In module. Any classes that are available to check people into, will show in green.
Check-In Process
To check people into a class, we will first need to click the Launch Check-In button.
We will then be taken to the Check In page, where we can start the check in process.
First, we will need to take the parents card, and scan the barcode on the card. This will then bring up a list of children they have permission to check in to the class. If the parent doesn’t have a card, we can search by name, in the search box, and click the relevant person, in the list of results.
We’ll then need to select which children are being checked in, by ticking the tick boxes, to the right of the children’s names, and clicking the Check In button, below.
If the child is a member of more than one class, that is currently running, we will need to select which class we are checking them into, followed by the Confirm button.
We can then put a wristband on the first child’s wrist, and scan the barcode, which will check the child in. If the parent is checking in more than one child, we can then repeat the process for the second child. We’ll then get a confirmation screen, showing which children we have checked in, and can click OK to be returned to the Check In screen. We can then scan the card of the next parent, so that we can check their children in, in the same way.
First Time or Guest
If we are checking someone in who isn’t already on the system, because they are visiting, or it’s their first time at church, we can click the First Time User/Guest, button.
We’ll then need to enter the details of the parent, who is checking the children in, on the form. All of the details are required. You can ask the parent to enter a password, that they can remember. They will need to enter the password again, when checking the child out.
If we want the details of the parents and children, to be added to People in iKnow, we can tick the Add as iKnow Member tick box. We’ll then need to enter their address details, as well. We can then click the Continue button.
Next we’ll need to enter the Children’s details. Once we’ve entered their name, date of birth, and selected the class they will be joining, we can put their wristband on, and scan the barcode.
If the parent has another child to check in, we can click the Add Another Child button, otherwise, we can click Finish, to be taken back to the Check In page.
