Check-In Users
==============

Each database should have a user role named `Checkin`. This is the **only** role that is needed in order to log into TouchPoint Check-In.

We recommend that you create a people record to use exclusively for logging into Check-In. Once you create the people record, create a user account and select only the `Checkin` role.

.. note::
    `Checkin` is the only role that you can assign to a user without also needing to assign the `Access` role. `Checkin` has a special use case.

.. admonition:: Check-In User Records

    If you have stations for children and for students, create people records named ``Child Check-In`` and ``Student Check-In`` in the same family. Create user accounts for each one with usernames of ``Child`` and ``Student`` accordingly. Set passwords and assign only the `Checkin` role. All of your children's Check-In stations will log in using ``Child`` and the student Check-In stations will log in using ``Student``.

The reason we recommend this type of set up is so you can give the username and password to a volunteer who can open your Check-In kiosks, but who cannot use those same credentials to log in to the normal TouchPoint application and have access to all of the people records in the database.
