Staff QR check-in

A streamlined check-in screen for a staffed desk with a hardware scanner. Plug in a USB or Bluetooth QR/barcode scanner, point it at each attendee’s eBadge QR, and Novex checks them in and shows a running count — no clicking required.

Where to find it

/t/<slug>/registrations/check-in — needs the check-in permission.

How it works

  1. Connect a hardware QR/barcode scanner (the kind that types the scanned value and presses Enter). The input field stays focused automatically.
  2. Scan an attendee’s badge QR. Each scan accepts a raw token or a full badge URL.
  3. Novex checks the attendee in and shows the result instantly.

A progress bar at the top tracks attended vs. total across the event so you can see how the door is going at a glance.

Scan results

Every scan is logged in a live history (most recent first):

Kiosk vs. staff check-in

AudienceSelf-service / front-of-houseStaffed desk
Walk-insRegister new attendeesNo — check-in only
Badge printingYes (transparent)No
OfflineYes (queues + syncs)Needs a connection

Use the kiosk when attendees serve themselves or you need to register walk-ins and print on the spot; use staff QR check-in for a fast, scanner- driven desk that only needs to mark people present.

Tips

  • Keep the tab focused — the scanner types into the on-screen field, so don’t click away mid-shift.
  • Tokens are case-sensitive — let the scanner enter the value rather than retyping it by hand.
  • Open it on multiple desks at once for a big door; the progress bar is shared, so every station sees the same live total.
