Introduction to Activity Registration

The Activity Registration module provides districts with a tool for managing activities that require a registration process including a registration packet, payment, and a roster. Activity Registration is completed in the Campus School Store based on registration dates you control. Once a student has registered for an activity, that activity no longer appears for them in the School Store.

Before You Begin

Be sure you have finished setting up the School Store and Payments modules.


Activity Registration Setup Workflow

Step Campus Location
Set Up Custom Forms and Ad Hoc Filters
1

Upload and manage supplemental Activity Registration documents in the Custom Forms tool. Activities require at least one form but more can be added.
The following Activity Registration options are available in the Module field in Custom Forms: Activity, Activity Preapproval, Athletics and Field Trip. Forms created with these options can only be assigned to a student via the Campus School Store and Activity Registration.

The Activity Preapproval process can only use custom form types of Interactive Form with Database Table and Interactive Form.

If you use an interactive form, you can also use the following Ad hoc fields to prepopulate the form: activityName and studentFirstLastName. For prepopulating to work, you must use the Ad hoc fields as the field names in your PDF. These fields are case sensitive.

Create an Ad Hoc filter for selecting eligible students. Each activity requires an Ad Hoc filter. Campus only allows students who are included in the Ad Hoc filter to register for the activity.

Make sure the Enable Activity Registration Viewing Tool option has the Student and/or Parent checkboxes marked if you want to allow users to see Activity Registration information in Campus Student or Campus Parent. When these options are enabled, users can see the activities for which the student has registered. To be considered "registered" the activity fee must be paid. Any applicable forms and options purchased for the student also display.Screenshot of the Enable Activity Registration Viewing Tool checkboxes Tool Search: Portal Display Options

The following checkboxes display on the District Assignments tool and determine which staff may be assigned to activities.
  • Activity Staff: When this checkbox is marked, the staff member may be assigned as the primary or secondary owner responsible for an activity.
  • Activity Preapproval: When this checkbox is marked, the staff member may be assigned as the School Approver, District Approver, or International Approver for an activity preapproval request.

Preapproval Process

The preapproval process is the process in Activity Registration that requires activity owners to request approval before an activity can finish being created and/or is made available for registration in the School Store. The specific rules that trigger the preapproval process and the forms that the activity owner must complete and route to internal approvers are defined in the Preapproval Configuration tool.

Tool Rights for Activity Registration

Tool Rights determine the level of access users have to tools throughout Campus. This article refers to tool rights in abbreviated form (i.e., R, W, A, D or any combination of the four). Sub-rights appear as italicized.

If no Roster Payment rights are granted, manual adds will have no Purchase Option and the registration will be unable to be confirmed by that specific user unless the student completes their registration and pays via the School Store.

You need at least one Payment Option (Cash/Check/Credit) for Roster Payments to be made. If you have no access to one of those, you cannot take a payment.

Right Description

R (Read)

The R right indicates the information on the corresponding tool may be viewed by the user. When applicable, the user is also allowed to print information. The user will NOT have access to the Save, Add or Delete icons in the action bar.

W (Write)

The W right indicates the user may view and modify the information on the corresponding tool. The Save icon in the action bar will be functional. This right allows the user to modify only existing data in the area since adding new data is controlled by the A right. This right includes the ability to change or remove data from a specific field.

A (Add)

The A right indicates the user may view, modify and add to the information on the corresponding tool. The New and Add icons in the action bar will be functional. This right allows the user to add new data/records.

D (Delete)

ASSIGN THIS RIGHT WITH CAUTION. The D right indicates the information on the corresponding tool may be deleted. The Delete icon in the action bar will be functional. This right provides the ability to completely remove an existing record, including all data contained within the record. The ability to change/remove data from a field is controlled through the  W  right.

RWAD Rights assigned at the module or folder level give those rights to all features within the module. For example, giving RW rights to the System Administration Health folder assigns RW rights to all tools within that folder, including any sub-rights.
