Check-In Suite Settings

Edit the following Configuration Settings in the Platform to determine how Check-In Suite operates.

Important: You may have some "CHECKIN" Configuration Settings in your system. These settings controlled the legacy Check-In system and do not apply to Check-In Suite. Changing a CHECKIN Configuration Setting does not affect Check-In Suite.
Note: Most applications reset and reload new settings after 24 hours, so don't be surprised if your Configuration Setting changes don't take effect immediately.
CIM, AutoLoginPassword
The password of the user account associated with the user and their related Check-In security roles for the Auto Login URL.
CIM, AutoLoginUsername
The username of the User account associated with the user and their related Check-In security roles for the Auto Login URL.
CIM, CallNumberChar
The number of characters to include in the Call Number.
CIM, CallNumberType
1 = ContactID, 2 = HouseholdID, 3 = Family Call # (from households table), 4 = Deprecated.
CIM, FamilyNoteCareContact
Contact ID that will be assigned to all Household Care Log items created by Check-In. 2 = Default Contact.
CIM, FamilyNoteCareOutcomeID
The outcome type for the Household Care Log Entry. 1 = Pending Assignment, 2 = Assigned, 3 = Closed-Success, 4 = Closed-Failed.
CIM, FamilyNoteCareTypeID
The Household Care Type ID to be used for Check-In 2 when creating new Household Care record.
CIM, FrontDeskSMSNumber
The number that receives text messages (SMS) at the front desk of a church.
Note: This number should be a ten-digit phone number that can accept text formatted with dashes (for example, 222-333-4455).
CIM, GuestOfFamilyHHPositionID
The Household Position ID to be used for the Contact created using the Add Guest feature.
CIM, HideCallParentsButton
Hides the Notify Parents button on the Classroom Manager so no one can notify parents using custom workflow through the application.
CIM, PersonalAttributeTypeID
The Attribute Type ID used for identifying personal characteristics available for printing on labels.
CIM, ShowAddGuest
Default is True. Set this to False to hide the Add Guest button in Attended Mode. It may take up to ten minutes to see the change in the Check-In Suite.
CIM, ShowsInCheckinHHTypeID
The ID of the Household Type "Shows in Checkin". Other Households with that Type will then show in the "Family and Permitted Guardians" section of Classroom Manager for a selected Participant. (Household Types are found in System Lookups/Household Types. If you are missing the type "Shows in Check-in", add it to your system.)
Check-In Suite also uses the following Common Configuration Settings:
  • COMMON, PhoneMask
  • COMMON, GlobalCongregationID
  • COMMON, defaultContactStatus
  • COMMON, ParticipationStatusID
  • COMMON, defaultParticipantType: the Participant Type given to any new individual added.
  • COMMON, State: determines the state abbreviation that's defaulted for any address entry in the system.
Check-In Suite also uses the following CoreTools Configuration Settings:
  • CORETOOLS, TwilioSID
  • CORETOOLS, TwilioTOKEN
  • CORETOOLS, TwilioSMSNUMBER
Additional settings to note:
  • If you select a group while you add or edit a new family member through Check-In Suite, the Group Role assigned is the one defined in that group's Group Type record.
Note: There is no longer a Configuration Setting for Search Instructions because Check-In Suite is now available internationally. If you need to change this value, you can use a Kiosk Theme.
