Filter Journals

1. Click the Communicate icon on the left hand side to access this module.

2. Select the Journal tab.

3. In the main area under today’s date, you will be able to see all journals for all children. However, you will likely want to 
    filter this based on your group, so you don’t see every single child’s journal entry for the entire center. To filter:

• Select the filter button on the left-hand side, beside the Search field.

4. Under Enrollment, select Current Students. Select the child’s name and click the plus (+) symbol to the right, beside the 
    date. The plus sign appears once a child’s name has been selected.

5. Next, select the Group you would like to filter for. This will then show only journals for current students in the selected 
    group or groups.

6. You can also filter by Age Category if you prefer. To do so:

• Select Current Students.
• From Age Category, select the age you wish to filter for.
  
  

7. Lastly, filtering can be done by date, to view all journal entries for a particular period, such as the last week or month. To
    filter by date:

• Adjust the Date From and Date To fields.
• Click the Apply button.
