How do I enroll a new child when I know the starting date and the enrolled times for the child?


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 do know the starting date and enrolment times for this child, you must enter all of the relevant date details (birth, starting and application date) for the child. The leaving date will automatically be set as the child's fifth birthday.

Enter the attendance times for this child in the top set of "From and to" times. Only use the bottom set of times if this child is attending two separate sessions on the same day with a break in between.

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 you have given this child a starting date, in the "Attendance" box, select the "Regular enrolment" 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 on 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.
