The Sign by Proxy feature was created as a way to allow staff to sign a child in or out and indicate an Authorized Pickup contact. The Sign by Proxy record indicates which specific Authorized Pickup dropped off or picked up a child and what staff member signed in proxy of that authorized contact.
This can be important for security (to know which authorized pickup dropped off or picked up a student). It can also be important as any early arrival and/or late pickup fees are only assessed when an authorized pickup signs in or out or if the Proxy feature is used by staff.
Sign by Proxy can be completed using the following steps.
- Log into the app and navigate to the Attendance tab used by staff.
- Select the child
- Tap Sign
- Tap Sign In or Sign Out
- Type in a new staff name or select the correct Staff Member. Note: If there is a staff person who should no longer be displayed for sign in/out, swipe to the left on their name then select Delete to remove them.
- Select the correct Section
- Select Authorized Contact (the person dropping off or picking up the student)
- Select Time (the app allows you to retroactively go back within 24 hours); if no time is selected it will default to the current time.
- Tap Sign In 1 Child or Sign Out 1 Child
- Enter a new Staff signature
