Manually adding a student/parent to your system
We strongly suggest that you always add a student / parent via a sync with your School Information System (SIS) or, if you manually import your data, by editing the import file.
If you need to add a student / parent manually without following those routes you can only do it by adding an appointment for that parent yourself, as an admin, on a current conference.
You do this via via Manage Appointments > Add Appointment and then either clicking Add New Student or selecting and existing student, then Add New Parent (if you import your data rather than syncing with an SIS you will see Link New/Existing Parent).
Note that any manually added student or parent will remain on your system until you manually delete them, so if you will later be adding that student / parent from your SIS you will need to do this to avoid having duplicates.
