Check In/Out Kiosk

Tool Search: Check In/Out Kiosk

 

The Scanning toolset is part of the Campus Workflow Suite.

The Check In/Out kiosk can be used by students who arrive at school late or to track students who leave before the end of the school day.

Check In/Out Kiosk is designed to be used by students in a self-service mode to check in and out of school. After scanning in and selecting check in/out, students select a button for the reason. Options set for each button in Scanner Settings determines how the event is processed in Absence Request Processing.

It is recommended to have a webcam with the ability to auto-focus at close distances if you plan to use your webcam as a scanner. Webcams without this feature may have trouble reading barcodes.
