Check In Portal

In the Administration module you can add and assign Users to have the ability to Check In Users. The Checkin role is defined automatically in Administration. Go to the Users tab and add a new User by entering in their name, email address and by setting a password. Select the Checkin role in the Role drop down field. These Users assigned to this Role are able to Check In Users in your App. On the top right of the screen they can tap their Profile and a drop down will appear. In the drop down they tap the option labelled "Check In Portal". In the Check In Portal these Users are able to browse and search for Users and check them in by tapping the Check In button next to their name. This all feeds back to the Attendees module in the CMS in real-time.

Users assigned the Checkin role are also able to edit details of Users by tapping the More Details button next to their name. When this is tapped a pop up will appear with all of the User's information (including custom columns). The Users assigned the Checkin role are able to edit and update this information. For example; when checking in a User you may want to find out if they have any food allergies. The User assigned the Checkin role is able to update your pre-defined custom column to show any food allergies the other User may have. This all feeds back to the Attendees module in the CMS where updated information can be viewed and downloaded to a spreadsheet (CSV).
