Summary: Forms are a great way to handle event registrations! If you'd like your form respondents to show up directly on the check-in list for a specific event, follow the instructions below to link them together and streamline your check-in process.
Before You Begin
Profile Association is Required: It is important to note that form respondents must be associated with a database profile to be eligible to appear on an event's check-in list. If they fill out the form but are not linked to a profile, they will not populate on the list.
Pre-requisites: You will need to create your Form first, and then create your Event so they are both ready to be linked.

Troubleshooting & FAQs
Why aren't some of my respondents showing up on the check-in list? Remember that a form entry must be successfully connected to a person's profile to be eligible for the event. If you have "anonymous" entries or entries that haven't been matched and updated to a profile yet, those individuals will not automatically appear on the check-in roster.
