Using the public document directory

Back to top

Waiver Public Directory

Offering a walk-in service for your business and requiring Guests to fill out a waiver before proceeding? Then, you can direct them to your Public Directory.

From here, the Guest selects the waiver relevant to their booking and then clicks on the blue Sign Document button to continue.

You can present this to them on a tablet or desktop computer, whatever you have available at your business.

 

Waivers Public Directory

Access the directory by clicking on the Public Directory link in the left sidebar. 

The directory can also be found at: https://yourcompany.checkfront.com/reserve/documents/directory/

If you want to hide a template from this directory, then you can do so from the Configuration section of the template.

 

Note

A document filled out through the Public Directory does not attach automatically to the Guest's booking. A Staff member must manually attribute the completed waiver when editing the booking.

Using the kiosk directory

Back to top

Waiver Kiosk Directory

The Kiosk Directory allows you to present a list of documents on a public, shared device, such as a display without an attendant.

Like viewing the Public Directory, the Guest needs to click on the blue Sign Document button beside the document name to continue.

Once a Guest has filled out, signed, and submitted a document, they are automatically returned to the main page. The device is then ready for the next Guest.

 

Waivers Kiosk Directory

You can find the Kiosk Directory in the left sidebar beneath the Public Directory.

The directory can also be found at:
https://yourcompany.checkfront.com/reserve/documents/directory/?kiosk=2

 

Note

A document filled out through the Kiosk Directory does not attach automatically to the Guest's booking. A Staff member must manually attribute the completed waiver when editing the booking.
