#### **Frequently Asked Questions**

**Q: Why don't all of my children appear on the kiosk?**

**A:** Only children who are registered with the provider and are eligible for check-in or check-out will be displayed. If a child is missing, contact your program provider for assistance.

**Q: Can I check in only one child instead of all of them?**

**A:** Yes. Simply select the checkbox next to the child or children you want to check in or check out. You are not required to select every child.

**Q: Can I check one child in and another child out during the same kiosk visit?**

**A:** No. The kiosk will only display children who are eligible for the current kiosk action (check-in or check-out). Separate kiosk sessions are required for different actions.

**Q:** **What if I enter the wrong PIN?**

**A:** You can try again by entering the correct PIN. If you're unable to remember your PIN, contact your program provider for assistance.

**Q: Why do I need to sign before completing the process?**

**A:** Your signature verifies and authorizes the check-in or check-out for the selected children.

**Q: What should I do if I accidentally checked in or checked out the wrong child?**

**A:** Contact your program provider as soon as possible so they can update the attendance record if necessary.
