Should you enable General check-in/check-out or Shift check-in/check-out? Here's what each one does:

General Check-in/Check-out:

General Check-in provides a high-level look at Opportunity attendance. It does not track scheduled shifts, but rather the overall attendance of the Opportunity itself. When enabled Staff will have to check-in or be checked in to the Opportunity.

Shift Check-in/Check-out:

Shift attendance is used to track attendance on a shift-to-shift basis. If this is activated, Staff will have to check-in or be checked in to their individual Shifts. This is particularly good for keeping track of any holes in your Schedule.
