Child Care CRM Processes
A new function in Child Care CRM allows you the ability to export parent and child information from Child Care CRM and import that data into EZ Care 2, saving you the time of having to re‐enter this information after the child enrolls.
Activating Child Care CRM Integration
► To activate Child Care CRM Integration
1. Log into Child Care CRM as an administrator.
2. Go to Settings >> System Settings >> Management Integration.
3. To enable this functionality, click
4. Select EZ Care 2.
Click on the Enable CRM Integration checkbox. At this point, the Enable CRM Integration field should read “Enabled” and “EZ Care 2” will be displayed as your Management System. If this information is all correct, the management integration functionality is enabled in Child Care CRM.
To complete the activation process, you must also activate the integration in EZ Care 2. Please refer to the documentation located at the EZ Care 2 website.
Child Care CRM Export Process
When a child record is changed from “Contacted,” “New Lead,” Tour Scheduled,” or “Tour Completed” status to either “Registered” or “Wait List” status (and the export function is enabled in your system) the export process is activated.
Export Process for Registered Status
Go into a child record and click
2. Change the Status to Registered.
3. A popup box will appear. Click “Yes” to export. If you select “No”, the record will not be exported. You may still export this record manually at a later time.
4. Check the Past Activities section of the Child record. A record of the export should be noted.
5. Go to the Home tab.
6. Click on the Export tab beneath the graph.The status of the record you just processed will read either “Pending” or “Processed.” Once it reads “Processed,” it has been moved into EZ Care 2 and is ready for import.
7. At this point, you should go to EZ Care 2 and begin the import process. To import records into EZ Care 2, refer to the documentation at the EZ Care 2 Website.
8. Once the record has been imported to EZ Care 2, the status changes in Child Care CRM Export Tab on your Home page from “Pending” to “Processed”.
9. If you hover over the record, you will read a message that reads as follows:
10. At this point, click on the Action icon. A popup box will appear:
11. Select the Enrolled Reason from the pick list.
12. Enter the Actual Start Date.
13. Input any additional comments as necessary.
14. Click on the Save button. The status will read “Waiting”. Every 60 seconds, a batch process moves records from “waiting” status to “Completed” status if Actual Start Date is on or before today. If the Actual Start Date is in the future, the export record will stay in “Waiting” until the Actual Start Date arrives.
Export Process for Wait List Status
The export process for children in Wait List status is very similar to the process for the Registered Status. The only difference is the initial popup box that appears which, in this case, allows you to enter additional wait-list information that isn’t necessary when moving a child record into “Registered” status. Once you enter the appropriate wait list information, you may either select “Yes” or “No” in the Export Child Management System pick list. If you select “No”, the record will not be processed for export. You may still export this record manually at a later time. If you select “Yes”, the export process occurs. After that, the export process is the same as described in the Export Process for Registered Status section.
Manual Export Process
If a child is moved to either “Wait List” or “Registered” status and not exported at that time, you still have the ability to export that record at a later time.
To do this, go into the record and view the Child record. At the top right of that View Child popup box, an Export button will be available (highlighted in orange below).
2. A popup box will appear.
3. To export, select “Yes”. At this point, continue the process as previously described.
4. If you attempt to export a child record that has already been exported, a popup box will appear, letting you know that the child has already been processed.
