How do I add a child to the waiting list?


From the home menu, click the "Children" icon, or from anywhere in the system, click the blue piece of puzzle at the top left of the screen that is labeled "Child".

Click the "Add" button

Enter the details for this child. Fields that have a blue background are "required" fields which means that you are required to enter data into these fields. Fields that have a white background are optional fields that you can enter data into if you wish

To move between different fields, you can navigate using the mouse, or you can "tab" to move forwards between fields or "shift tab" to move backwards between fields.

Because you don't know the starting date or enrolment times for this child, all you need to enter is the application date for the child. The other date information can be entered when you move the child from the waiting list to the regular roll.

Remember that whoever you select as being responsible for the bill "Invoice who", needs to be defined as one of the contacts for this child.

Because this child is going on the waiting list, in the "Attendance" box, select the "Waiting List" option.

Child Update

Once you have entered all of the details for this child, you can save these details and continue to enter the contact details for the child by clicking the "Contacts" button, or you can click the "Update" button to save the details and return to the child selection screen.

If you click the "Contacts" button, you will now be able to add a new contact for this child by clicking the "Add" button or if this child has a sibling at your centre, you can select the siblings name from the drop down list and click "Same As" to give the new child the same contacts as it's sibling.
