Dancer Check-In

Check in dancers as they arrive at your competition venue.

The Dancer Check-In page lets you track which registered dancers have arrived at the venue on competition day. This helps you identify no-shows before the event begins.


Accessing Dancer Check-In

  1. From your Event Dashboard, click Dancer Check-In in the sidebar
  2. Or invite your check-in desk under Event Staff Access with the Dancer Check-In screen. The Dancer Check-In shareable link only works for signed-in people who hold that screen

Who Can Check Dancers In

Only you, an event staff member who has been given the Dancer Check-In screen, and Kompdesk support can tick or clear a check-in. Anyone else who opens the page gets a message saying check-in is for the organiser. Each check-in records who made it. See "Event staff and what they can open".


Checking In Dancers

Search Tab:

  1. Type a dancer's name, ID number, studio name, entry number, or routine name into the search box
  2. Matching dancers appear as cards showing:
    • Dancer name and check-in status
    • Studio affiliation
    • Date of birth and ID number
    • All entries with entry numbers, routine names, and fees
  3. Click the "Check In" button on a dancer's card
  4. The dancer is marked as checked in across all their registrations

Filter by Status:
Use the filter buttons to show:

  • All: every registered dancer
  • Pending: dancers who have not checked in yet
  • Checked In: dancers already marked as arrived

Tracking No-Shows

Switch to the No-Shows tab to see all unchecked dancers grouped by studio:

  • Studios are sorted by number of pending dancers (highest first)
  • Each studio group shows contact details (phone, email) so you can follow up
  • Click "Check In All" on a studio group to bulk check-in all their dancers at once
  • Individual check-in buttons are also available within each group

Progress Tracking

The sidebar shows a circular progress indicator with:

  • Total number of registered dancers
  • Number checked in (green)
  • Number still pending (amber)
  • Percentage complete

Undoing a Check-In

If you check in a dancer by mistake:

  1. Find the dancer (they will show a green "Checked In" badge)
  2. Click the "Undo" button
  3. Confirm the undo action
  4. The dancer returns to "Pending" status

Fee Visibility

Each dancer card shows their fee breakdown:

  • Registration fee
  • Entry fees (per routine)
  • Custom fees
  • Total fees for quick reference at the desk
