Attendance
The Attendance section in B1 Admin gives you a complete view of who is showing up at your church and how your groups are growing over time. From configuring campuses and service times to reviewing trends and setting up self check-in, everything you need to track and understand attendance is managed from this page.
Page Overview
To open the page, open the Jump menu (the search bar at the top-left), expand People, and click Attendance. The page opens on a summary of this week (Sunday through Saturday).
The left column shows the week's dates and the total number of people in the room -- your headcount total if headcounts were entered this week, otherwise the number of people checked in. Below the total you'll see how many were checked in, counted, and guests, plus a split by service when you have more than one. If no one has checked in yet this week, it shows the last week that had attendance.
The main area of the page shows:
- Rooms -- each group people checked in to this week, with the number checked in (and a capacity bar for groups with a check-in capacity). Click a group to open it.
- Guests -- people who checked in as guests this week. Click a name to open their record.
- Last 13 weeks -- a small bar chart of weekly check-ins, with how many of those weeks had check-ins.
- Headcounts this week -- headcounts entered for this week's services.
Actions
The left column also holds the page's actions. Each one opens in the main area; click the Attendance back link to return to the weekly summary.
Setup
Click Setup to configure the building blocks of attendance tracking. Here you define your campuses, add services and service times to each campus (including an optional check-in schedule for each service time), and see which groups are assigned to those service times. Counts of campuses, service times, scheduled and unscheduled groups, and total groups appear across the top. You only need to do this once, though you can update it whenever your schedule changes. See Attendance Setup for a full walkthrough.
All years (Reports)
Click All years to open the attendance reports. Tabs across the top switch between Attendance Trend (church-wide trends over time), Headcount Trend (headcount totals by week), and Group Attendance (attendance broken down by individual group). Use the filters to narrow results by date range, campus, or service time. See Tracking Attendance for details on using reports and filters.
Enter headcount
Click Enter headcount to record a simple total count for a service, service time, or group instead of a named roster. See Headcount Entry & Trend for details.
Kiosk
Click Kiosk to open the Kiosk Theme settings, where you set the check-in kiosk's background images and idle screen behavior. A Check-in kiosk, QR, and labels link takes you to the full B1 CheckIn settings.
