Administrators can prevent or lock the ability to enter participation for individual months. This is done to encourage timely participation and data entry and to eliminate inconsistent reporting. Locking is typically done around the 10th of the following month.
The Locking Participation feature can only be used at the grantee/district or site levels by administrators. To learn more about Switching Access, please see this article.
Click Lock Activity Participation.
Select the month from the drop-down list of months for which you would like to prevent new participation from being entered.
After selecting a month, a list of sites will appear. If your current access is at the site-level, you will only see that site in the list.
Check the boxes to the left of the site names for which you would like to lock participation entry for the selected month. Check the box next to Site to quickly select all sites.
When finished selecting sites, click Save.
A green message will appear indicating success.
Locking participation will prevent participation from being added in the Participation section (when recording participation for multiple people) and also prevent recording participation for an individual in their registration record.
