Log In/Out Preferences
The first section of our “Prefs” tab contains our Log In/Out preferences. These preferences control how the log listing displays, kiosk preferences, additional kiosk features, and more. This article will go through every preference in this menu, explaining exactly how they function.
Log In/Out
- Choose Consultant on Login
- Ask for Subject
- Ask for Reason
- Field Size
- These settings control which options appear during the login process, as well as how many options appear at once. As an example, the screenshot below matches the configuration above. Since we have the Reason choices set to 2, we can see 2 reasons at once in the login window, and can scroll down to see all available options. If Subject and Reason are enabled, they are inherently required. Consultant is optional unless "Yes (Required)" is chosen.
- Choose Consultant on Logout & # Choices
- If enabled, TracCloud will ask what consultant the student visited with while concluding their visit. Consultant is optional unless "Yes (Required)" is chosen. # of choices behaves just like the preference above.

- Set initial status to waiting on log in
- If enabled, when a student logs in, the visit status will be “waiting” by default rather than immediately starting the visit with their consultant. This would be utilized when you need to keep track of wait time in addition to actual visit time.

- Format to display Subject
- This preference controls how the subject field is displayed during the login process. For example, you can choose to only display the Subject (MAT500) or the Title (Introduction to Example), or you can include the full Subject Section Title (MAT100 01 Introduction to Example) if needed.

- Order for KIOSK Login
- This preference controls the order of questions asked during the login process. For example, if you want the student/staff to select a consultant first, then select a subject that the consultant can assist with, you would put “Consultant” prior to “Subject” in this section. This also works in reverse, if you want you want to select a subject first, then a consultant that is able to assist.

- Show Location when Logging in to an Appointment
- When a student logs in on a Kiosk near the start time of their appointment, the student will be asked if they're logging in for that appointment to help speed up the login process (and to link the Visit record to the Appointment). Enabling this option will include the Location of their appointments in this prompt.
- Override: show all appointments in all related centers if logging in via KIOSK

- Enabling these options adds a "please rate your satisfaction" question to the logout process of both the log listing *and* kiosk. These responses are only accessible to groups who have been provided access to these fields in the 'Student / Visit' tab. Responses will be visible on the student listing and in reports such as Visits by ??.

- Show Touchless QR Code for KIOSK Student Signin on Phone
- This preference adds a QR code to your Kiosk. Students can scan this with their phones, which will take them to a URL where they can enter their ID to login/logout. This QR code automatically regenerates after several minutes, so students can’t keep the URL for later use. QR Code Width allows you to adjust the size of the QR code on your screen.
- QR Code is clickable
- If checked, the kiosk QR code can be clicked on to open the login form. This option is typically disabled.

- Show Queue and Consultant login buttons
- This preference adds separate login prompt on the log listing and kiosk for work visits. If selected, users are prompted to enter their IDs, and as long as they have a valid consultant account, they can directly login for a work visit. Allow Consultant Login for Custom KIOSKs as well also enables this feature on Custom Kiosks. This additionally enables the "Queue" button on the Log Listing to view a more restricted list of students who are logged in (typically for a queue TV).

- Require Single Record Found
- Typically used if Prevent Login Via Name is unchecked. This requires that any Log Listing/Kiosk login attempts must return only a single student to continue. If unchecked, a student might search for 'Dave' to login, and scroll through other existing students to find their own name. Checking this box would prevent that, requiring that the student be specific enough to only return a single applicable student profile to continue.
