Columns
Back to topIf you wish to customize the information displayed on the Waivers & Documents list, then you can do so by adding, removing, or re-arranging the data Columns.
Click on the Columns link to get started. This opens the Columns edit window. Check the box next to each data field you wish to view. If you don't wish to see it, make sure it is unchecked.
Re-order the Columns by clicking on the pattern of dots to the left of each label and moving it up or down.
Export Document Index
Back to top
If you would like to export a copy of your Document Index, then you can do so by clicking on the Export icon about the list of All Documents.
The Export modal allows you to choose your preferences for the file.
Note that if you downgrade your Checkfront plan to one that doesn't include waivers, any documents you created previously remain intact in the system.
We recommend that you export your documents before you downgrade your plan.
Should you upgrade to a plan that includes waivers at a later date, those documents once again become available to you.
