Custom Kiosks are a great way to manage and track visits for workshops or for groups of students coming into your center. Custom Kiosks can be accessed by staff from the kiosk listing after they are saved. However, these Kiosks are custom and have Centers, Reason, Staff, and Sections all predefined. This way, students can swipe their card or enter their ID and move on without having to make any of the normal selections of a general Kiosk. This Custom option allows for quick and efficient login and logout. No lines for students to wait in, just an easy scan-and-go process. Custom Kiosks work best when all students visiting are logging in for the same center or visiting for a specific reason and/or section.<br><br>

You can track staff hours based on 1 of 3 possible criteria. <b>Schedule</b>, where work hours are based on hours of availability.
