Taking Attendance

Taking attendance can be done from the admin Dashboard page. This page has two main sections. At the top is the Quick Start Dashboard. The Quick Start Dashboard may require you to select "Show Me The Full Dashboard". It may also be hidden, which requires you to click the Show Dashboard section at the top of the page to show. Click again to hide it once more.

Please note, you can also take attendance through the Evaluations tool. If you intend to perform an evaluation it is more convenient to skip these two attendance taking methods and perform attendance within the evaluation feature.

There may be many reasons to add a guest participant to a program. To do so, simply use the Guest Participant drop down menu and begin typing the participant's name. Select the desired participant from the system suggestions to add them to the list. Guest skaters added in this manner will be indicated by the Guest icon. Guest participants are only added to this specific event, not the whole program.

Please note, there are two additional methods to add guest participants to a program/event. The first is through ticket redemption and the second is through the drop in feature. The drop in feature is handled completely by the system and/or site admins.
