Facility: Front Desk Mode

Front desk mode is a simplified dashboard view that focuses on the day-to-day operations of running your facility, such as scheduling clients, checking pets in and out, sending report cards, and much more!

In Front Desk Mode, you can see your Expected pets that have scheduled events for that day; Checked-in pets, pets that are checked in for scheduled events within the same day, or pets that are checked in within a date range, such as a boarding service; Checked out, shows pets checked out for the day.

To the right, you have the occupancy for your Spaces. You can also see the Space capacity that is available and unavailable, as well as the pets assigned to those Spaces.
