Check-In
Section titled “Check-In”OKTO Check-In supports different attendance workflows because a Sunday service, a kids environment, and a conference do not need the same experience. Choose the check-in experience that matches the gathering you are operating.

Run service check-in
Use a fast attendance workflow for recurring worship services and gatherings where person-level attendance is useful.
Set up kids check-in
Work with family check-in, rooms, safety information, security labels, and parent communication.
Check in event attendees
Use event-specific rosters, walk-ins, and attendance for conferences, summits, and registered events.
Run a kiosk or paging station
Configure focused self-service or staff-assisted check-in and parent-paging workflows.
Recommended flow
A good first workflow
- Choose the check-in type that matches the gathering.
- Confirm rooms, rosters, labels, or service details needed for that experience.
- Test the staff-assisted or kiosk flow before doors open.
- Run check-in and keep attendance connected to the People records when person-level identity is captured.
