How to Use the Family Profile

The Family profile page lets you view and manage all its members. Families can contain any mix of Student and Contact profiles.

When working with Families, it’s important to remember the following:

  • Adding something to the Family’s profile makes it available to everyone in the Family.
    • For example, adding a Payment Method to a Family lets each member use it. 
  • The Family profile lets you view everyone’s information at once, but you can always navigate to an individual member in the tab bar.
    • You can also narrow down the members you see in each module. Click Filters, then select the profiles you want.
    • If there are more than five people in a Family, additional members can be found in the More Members dropdown on the right of the tab bar.

Getting to a Family Profile

There are multiple ways to get to a Family’s profile. 

  1. Universal Search – In the upper right corner of the Kicksite header, click on the search bar, then type the Family’s name.
    • You can also search for a Student in that Family, and get to the Family from their profile.
  2. Family List – In the sidebar, click the Profiles icon (three grouped people), then click Families
    • Find it in the list via filters, or search for its name on the right side.
  3. Name – In many parts of the system, Families’ names are links to their profiles. 
    • Yellow text indicates a link.
Selecting a Family profile from a list page allows you to easily navigate to its members, too.

You can also go to the profile of a Student or Contact in a Family and click the Family’s tab in the page header.

Profile Left Side

Click the chevron (downward facing arrow) to expand or collapse modules.

Basic Info

Name – Click a Family’s name to edit it. Use the green check to save your changes, or the red X to cancel.

Status – Families have two statuses: Active and Inactive. Click the status bubble to change it.

  • Active – As long as even one member of the family is Active, the Family will remain Active. 
  • Inactive – Only used if the entire Family is leaving. This inactivates every member of the Family, and pauses all memberships and billings. If only one or some members are leaving, inactivate their profiles separately.

Primary Info

This information is taken from the profile of the Family’s primary person. The Primary is usually a parent or guardian. Primaries can view other family members’ information on the Member Portal.

You can edit the Primary’s information here, by clicking the yellow pencil, or on their individual profile.

Each Family member will also have the Primary’s contact information displayed in their Bio. 

  • This is useful in situations where individual members (such as young children) may not have their own phone number or emails. 
  • Additionally, you only need to edit the number once to update it everywhere.

Pinned Comments

Pinned Comments make sure relevant information is always at hand.

Individual Family members’ pinned comments will also show on the Family profile to give you a complete view of important information.

  • You can pin multiple comments, and unpin if they’re no longer relevant or out of date.
  • To pin a comment, click the thumbtack icon in the Comments module or in the Add New Comment window. 
  • All comments, whether or not they’re pinned, can be seen in the Comments module.

Family Profile Modules

Click on a module in the tab bar to focus on only that one.

Each module shows items attached to the Family’s profile, as well as items attached to the individual members of the Family. 

  • Click the Filters button to select only the members you want to see.

On Contact profiles, the Finances and Agreements modules are only visible if that Contact was added via Landing Page.

Finances

Total Recurring Charges and Total Balance are a sum of the entire Family’s Recurring Billings and open balances.

  • Click the chevron to expand the view to show the Family’s Recurring Charge amount, as well as each individual member’s open balance.
  • To view an individual’s Recurring Charge amount, go to their profile, or look at the Recurring Billings tab.
  • You can’t pay an entire Family’s open balance because payments can only be applied to one profile.

The Add New button lets you create a new Invoice or One-Time Charge, and add a Payment Method. Payment Methods added to the Family are accessible to all members.

After seeing that Hannah is the one who owes money, you can collect payment on her profile.

You can send a Payment Method Invite for the Family to enter their own card information. They must have a valid email address to be sent an invite.

Use the tabs to view Invoices, Recurring Billings, Payments, Payment Methods, and Reports. All this information is also visible in the Finances section of the system.
