The block bookings system enables ad-hoc attendances to be entered for up to 14 weeks in one block.
Family & Children
From the drop down list, select the name of the family you are entering a block booking for and tick the names of the children to be included in this booking.
Rolls
Tick the names of one or more rolls that you wish to block book.
Insert
Note: Pressing Pencil or Charge will not close the Block Bookings screen. This allows for entry of multiple block bookings for different families without continually reopening this screen. When you have finished entering block bookings, press Close. If you press close without first inserting pencil or charged bookings no changes will be recorded.
Bookings
Show - retrieves the current attendances and bookings. It is possible that a child may already have bookings in the period covered by the block booking. Clicking Show will display any current bookings.
When you are retrieving bookings for multiple siblings, it is likely that the children may have different bookings entered for a given day. In this case QikKids will display -?- to indicate that there is a difference between the children. Any days where the attendance is left as -?- will remain unaltered.
Note: Bookings can also be removed using the Block Bookings screen. To do this, press Show to display the current bookings, then set any attendances you want removed to -No-
Week Beginning
Using the drop down calendar, select the first week in the block booking period. The dates for the following rows will automatically cascade in weekly increments. Place a tick in all weeks you are entering a booking for.
Note: You can add bookings for discontinuous periods by simply ticking an unused week and selecting a date from the dropdown list.
