Releasing a student to a collector at the gate is a scan-based workflow. You scan the pickup pass, review and acknowledge any open security flags, and confirm with Approve and Release. Drop-offs follow the same process.
You must have a gate selected and a shift started before you can perform a pickup or drop-off.

Acknowledge open security flags

If the student’s record has open security flags, you must review and acknowledge all of them before the release action becomes available.
1

Review the flag

The result card shows a Security flag panel with a severity badge and a description.
2

Confirm acknowledgment

Select the checkbox I’ve reviewed this flag and confirmed the visitor’s identity.
3

Repeat for all flags

Repeat the process for each open flag. Until every flag is acknowledged, the primary action reads Review flag to approve.
Trying to release the student with flags still open returns “Acknowledgement required” and “Acknowledge all open security flags before releasing the student.”

School drop-offs use the same workflow. The result card shows Student Drop-off with Admitting, the student’s name, and With: when a guardian is on file.
