The room dashboard: headcounts, allergies, birthdays

Every open room has its own dashboard, and you reach it by pressing the room's card on the Today dashboard. Use it to see who's in your room, hand children back and read medical notes.

What you can do from it

  • Press Close room when nobody is checked in. See When a room closes.
  • Press Edit duration to change when check-in closes. See Check-in duration.
  • Waiting for you lists children whose trusted person (the parent or caregiver collecting them) has checked them out and is waiting for your Confirm handover. See Check a child out.
  • Who's here lists everyone currently checked into the room, and Move on a child's row sends them to another open room. See Move a child to another room.
  • Look back at who has already left under Who was here.

Medical notes and birthdays

A child with a medical note on their record carries a Medical note badge in Who's here and Waiting for you. Press it to read the note without leaving the dashboard.

Children with a birthday today, this week or last week are flagged in Who's here, so you can wish them a happy birthday.

Sounds

Sounds are off by default. Press Enable sounds on the attendance card to turn them on for the device you're holding, and Mute sounds to turn them off again. The device remembers your choice.

Short cues play when a child checks in, when a trusted person asks to collect a child, when a child is checked out, and when the room closes. Some browsers stay silent until you've tapped the page once, so tap anywhere if the page says sounds are waiting.

Troubleshooting

  • You expected a Waiting for you card and don't have one. A Relaxed room releases children without asking you to confirm, so nothing lands here. Check the room's Check-out setting, or ask your church's Owner.
