Checking in to the ratio
The ratio is computed from the check-ins on the unit’s device. So every check-in and check-out should be made when the person really arrives or leaves.

Children’s check-ins
Section titled “Children’s check-ins”| Record | Effect on the ratio |
|---|---|
| Check-in | The child’s multiplier counts from the check-in time. |
| Check-out or pick-up | The child’s multiplier stops counting. |
| Absence | No effect. The absence shows in the browser under Absent. |
| Absence reported by a guardian | No effect. Shows in the browser under Reported absences. |
| No record | The child does not count, even if present. |
A worker from another unit
Section titled “A worker from another unit”A worker visiting another unit checks in on that unit’s device. They count in the unit where they checked in, and in their home unit they show as In another unit.
A forgotten check-out
Section titled “A forgotten check-out”The ratio in the browser and in the app shows only today’s check-ins. A check-in from yesterday that was never closed does not show today. The staffing ratio report counts such a check-in until the end of its day and marks the slots as an estimate. See Staffing ratio report.
