Center sign-in administration

Accessing the Administration page:

Administrators can access the Administration page through the Sign in/out icon in the global navigation bar. This page shows all users who have signed in within the last 24 hours, updating in real-time as users sign in and out.

User details displayed:

• The table displays each user's name, sign-in and sign-out times, and specifies whether they signed in themselves or were signed in by an administrator.
• Manual Sign-out: Administrators can manually sign out users who forget to do so by clicking the icon in the Sign out column.

Additional options

• Copy Kiosk URL: Generate a URL to create a kiosk on any supported device.
• Remote Sign-in Users: Allows admins to sign users into the center without the need for a kiosk.
• Sign Out All: Quickly sign out all users at once, ideal for closing time.
• Refresh Users: Manually refresh the user list when needed.
• Download as Excel: Export center sign-in data in raw format.

Center sign-in kiosk

The kiosk interface enables users to log their time in the center but does not grant access to the system.

Kiosk registration

A SimCapture admin must register each new kiosk to ensure that only authorized devices are utilized for sign-ins.

Kiosk page

Users are greeted by a customizable message and Sign in/Sign out buttons. If SSO (Single Sign-On) is enabled, users can also sign in and out using their SSO credentials.

When a user selects Sign in/Sign out, they will be taken to a page prompting them to enter their SimCapture username, along with a required password.

Upon successful sign-in or sign-out, a configurable message will be displayed to the user before the interface redirects back to the home screen for the next user to sign in or out.

Center sign-in configuration options

System administrators can adjust several settings from the System Setup area:

• Manage Center Sign-ins: Grants access to the administration page and reports.
• Require Password: Determine whether passwords are required for signing in or out.
• Message Display Duration: Set the length of time messages are shown after sign-in or sign-out.
• Auto-sign-out Duration: Specify the time for automatic sign-out to prevent inactive sessions.
• Custom Messages: Configure messages displayed at the kiosk home, after sign-in, and after sign-out.
• Post-Sign-out Message: This message is shown to users upon successful sign-out.
