The Custom Register feature adds custom checkboxes or drop-downs to your register which can be used within class registers to keep track of important information, such as:

  • Awards, grades and achievements
    ​

  • How the child travels to and from the class
    ​

  • Signing in/ out
    ​

  • Absences

The Custom Register columns can only be seen by the club, parents and carers will not be able to view this information.

Custom Register columns can be managed by coaches, if you have given them 'Basic Register' access or above.


How to Add a Custom Register Column

Custom Register columns can be added by accessing 'Settings' > 'Register Settings' > 'Custom Registers'
