Check-in to a location

When you go out with your family to a great restaurant or you are at the movies with your friends, you want to share the news with the world - and so you "check-in" to the location and share it on Facebook or Twitter. Similarly, from the Zoho CRM app for Android, you can now check-in to the location when you meet with a client. Sales managers can immediately be notified of the check-in and therefore can keep a track of their sales reps' client appointments.

Check-ins are closely tied to Events. For example, you have an event called "Demo for Product at Kevin's office". When you check-in to a location, say Kevin's office, you can either associate the check-in to the existing event or create an event upon the check-in. The check-in is automatically attached as a note to the event. You can create check-ins only for the Leads, Contacts and Accounts modules. You cannot create a check-in without it being associated to an event.

1. Go to Leads/Contacts/Accounts modules.
   
2. Tap the (Check-in) icon to create a check-in.
   
3. If there is already an event associated to the contact, the exisiting event(s) show up.
   Select an event. The check-in is associated as a note for the event.
4. If there is no event, the app prompts you to create a new event for the check-in
   Create a new event and associate the check-in to the event.

Note

When a check-in is made, an update regarding the check-in is posted to Feeds automatically.
