Custom Registers
Custom registers in Kids Club HQ allow you to create a single register made up of multiple different clubs.
This is useful in cases where you have multiple clubs running in a single or more settings and want to have a single register to sign children in and out.
For example, if you collect children for an After School Club from different schools, you may have a different number of spaces available for those different schools. This is commonly dealt with by creating separate clubs. In this case, it’s likely that you would like to view all of the children on one register. That can be achieved with custom registers.
Accessing Custom Registers
To access the custom registers for your organisation, log in to Kids Club HQ then click on Registers in the left menu.
The registers view has 2 tabs, click on the Custom Registers tab.
Custom registers work the same way as other registers in the system, you can:
- View the register online
- Export to Excel
- Use the tablet mode where parents can sign in or out on a tablet
The main difference is that the dates shown for the custom register aren’t grouped by date range and instead you use a date picker to select the dates to view:
