Article Summary

Build 1.1.7

Released December 2023

Enhancements

  • An Event organizer can complete the following steps when the Mobile Check-in app is online and offline.
    • Check-in and check-out an individual Attendee within an Attendee Group.
    • Check-in all Attendee Group members within a group at once by clicking the CHECK IN FOR ALL button.
  • When an Event organizer scans a QR code for an Attendee who belongs to an Attendee Group, a pop-up window will appear asking if the user wants to either individually check in the Attendee or navigate to the Group tab. If the user clicks Group, they are taken to the Group tab, where they will see the Attendees in the Attendee Group. If the Attendee does not belong to an Attendee Group, the Group button will not be visible. The user will see the regular action buttons.

Build 1.1.6

Released November 2023

Enhancements

  • On the Attendee details screen, an Events organizer will see a list of Attendees if the Attendees belong to an Attendee Group.
  • If an Attendee belongs to an Attendee Group and the user manually navigates to that Attendee’s details screen, a new tab called “Group” will be visible. All associated members of that group will be listed under the Group tab. Attendee Group members will be sorted alphabetically by last name.

Build 1.1.3

Released August 2023

Bug Fix

  • Using the External ID feature to scan a QR code will create an Attendee from a Contact with the Contact’s name fields properly mapped to the corresponding Attendee’s name fields. Previously, prefixes, middle names, and suffixes disrupted the mapping, causing duplicate Contact records with improperly mapped names. (Known Issue: 000002938)

Build 1.1.2

Released July 2023

Bug Fix

  • A user can change an Attendee’s First Name, Last Name, and Email in Salesforce and see the updates reflected in the Mobile Check-in app. Previously, the updates were not reflected in the app. (Known Issue: 000002855)

Build 1.1.1

Released June 2023

  • When using a BT External ID QR code with the Mobile Check-in app to create a new Attendee, users no longer need to remove the parentheses from the prefilled phone number before saving the Attendee record. (Known Issue: 000002696)
  • Mobile Check-in app users can now enter a non-US phone number when creating a new Attendee. Previously, a country code picklist wasn’t available and a 10-digit phone number was required, making the Add Attendee Phone field exclusive to US phone numbers.
  • Users can now create new Attendees using the Mobile Check-in app while in Offline Mode (Airplane mode). The Attendee will be created in Salesforce when the Offline Mode is turned off. Previously, new Attendee creation failed when the app was in Offline Mode. (Known Issue: 000002784)
  • The First Name, Last Name, Title, and Company on an Attendee badge will wrap to a second line. Previously, long entries were cut off. Note: A Mobile Check-in app user can change the font size to further accommodate a very long name. (Known Issue: 000002438)

Build 1.0.28

Released March 2023

Enhancements

  • A new global setting has been added to the Mobile Check-In app. The new setting controls the behavior of the Badge Printing pop-up after a QR code is scanned and is disabled by default. To enable the setting, go to Settings and set QR-Scan Badge Print Popup to “Enable”.

Bug Fixes

  • Mobile Check-in app users can now check in an Attendee to a specific Session using a QR Code.
  • Previously, an error would occur when using the Blackthorn External ID/Digital ID process for Events with no Attendee records. This issue has been resolved.

Build 1.0.23

Released February 2023

Enhancement

  • The Mobile Check-in app has been updated to filter/display Events based on the following:
    • Upcoming Tab: captures Events with a future Event Start Date and/or without a set Event End Date.
    • Past Tab: captures Events with a past Event End Date.
    • No Date Tab: captures Events without any specific dates.

Build 1.0.21

Released January 2023

Enhancements

  • The Mobile Check-In app does not limit the number of visible Attendees and/or Session Attendees.
  • The Mobile Check-in app has a new Settings page with the new Offline Mode setting.
    • If the Offline Mode setting is set to “ON”, the check-in and check-out requests are stored in a queue until the Offline Mode setting is changed to “OFF” when all queued requests are processed.
    • If the Offline Mode setting is set to “OFF”, the check-in/check-out requests process immediately, and each Attendee’s Attendance Status is changed to "Attended". Additional requests are added to the queue until no new requests have come in for one minute when the processing starts again.
    • The default setting for this feature is “OFF”.
