Totals and named check-ins

Use general attendance totals for the overall headcount, including people who are not individually checked in. Named attendance identifies particular attendees. Record each measure deliberately; do not assume one automatically replaces the other.

Save a headcount

  1. Open the relevant service, event, department or cell-group meeting attendance workflow.
  2. Confirm the meeting date, session and location.
  3. Enter the required total headcount. Add adult/children or male/female breakdowns only when you have those figures.
  4. Review the form’s validation, save and check the recorded totals.

When a breakdown is unknown

Leave an optional breakdown blank when it was not collected. Zero means a known count of zero; it is different from an unknown figure. Correct the existing session’s totals rather than creating a second session for the same count.
