Browser-Based Check-In, also known as Kiosk Mode, lets staff and volunteers check in attendees directly from a web browser without installing a dedicated application. This method is intended for attended stations only and should not be used on unattended, standalone check-in stations.
Tip: For the simplest experience on a computer, use the Desktop Check-In App for Windows or Mac.
How to run Browser-Based Check-In
- In People, navigate to Attendance > Check-In.
- Select a Check-In Station by name, or open it in Kiosk Mode.
- Follow the FIRST... prompt to download the Label Printer application and save it to the computer.
- Once downloaded, run the Label Printer application.
- Select the printer for the device and click Set Printer. Then select the same station chosen in step 2 and click Set Station.
- Leave the Label Printer application open and return to the browser window.
- Select Continue To Check-In to begin taking attendance.
Note: These steps must be repeated each time you launch browser Check-In. Close the Label Printer application at the end of each session once you are done printing labels.
Check in a person
- Search for the parent or guardian checking in the child using a partial first or last name, the last four digits of a phone number, or another available search option. (Search options are determined by your station settings.) Press Tab or click the name to select it.
- The system displays the linked family members available to check in.
- For each person being checked in, confirm that Smart Check-In has selected the correct group. To change the group, click Choose Group and select the correct group from the modal.
- Click Submit to finalize the check-in.
