How do I check in volunteers for an event?

Volunteers for a particular event are typically managed by creating a Volunteer Event on the Volunteers page (Contacts > Volunteers). Once your volunteer event is live and volunteers are signed up, on the day of your event as the volunteers show up, you will go to Volunteer Page Overview page by clicking the Volunteer event on the Volunteers page. On this page, locate the Other Actions button, and choose the Volunteer Sign In option to go to the Sign In page. The sign in page will display all volunteers that are registered as well as any additional guest/volunteer within each registration. When a volunteer approaches the check in desk, and provides their details, you can look them up on this page and locate their registration, and next to their name click the Check In button to mark them as checked in. If their name was not provided when registering, you can enter their name and add them as a contact on this page before marking them as Checked In.

When a volunteer is marked as Checked In, their volunteer hours will be logged based on the duration of the shift they signed up for. The check in and hours worked information will be displayed on the volunteer's contact record, as well in the Volunteer Activity on the Volunteers page.
