Oftentimes churches will want to control who shows up in the list of eligible people to be checked into a certain event. If you're checking infants into the nursery, for example, you may not want senior citizens showing up on the same list. Breeze allows you to restrict who shows up on the list.

- Select the "Events" tab from the top right.
- Click "Add Event" or click an empty space on the date you'd like the event added.
- On the right side, change the dropdown for "Select who can check into this event" to whatever you desire (options include: Everyone, Specific Tags, Form Respondents, No One).
For an existing event

- On the right side, change the dropdown for "Select who can check into this event" to whatever you desire (options include: Everyone, Specific Tags, Form Respondents, No One).
Options

| Specific Tags | Only people within specific tags will show up on the list. This option allows you to link the event with any number of tags. 1 |
| Form Respondents | People who have filled out a certain form will show up on the check in list. Ideal for a registration form to check those people in when they show up to the event they registered for.2 |
| No One | No one will show up on the check in list. This is ideal if you only want to keep track of a total headcount rather than specific names. |
