Overview

The Settings Panel is your control center for all administrative tasks outside of live meetings. Here you manage rosters, configure Attendance Profiles, set up Name Matching, browse and export Attendance Records, and adjust defaults in Other Settings.

Settings Panel Settings Panel (Zoom Main Client runtime)

  • Before meetings: Upload rosters, create/review Attendance Profiles, verify Name Matching rules.
  • After meetings: Browse Attendance Records and optionally export data.
  • During meeting: If you need to add to roster or adjust Name Matching on-the-fly, you can open the Settings Panel while the meeting is live. Click Sync button on the top right after making changes to see updates in the Meeting Panel.

Roster Management page Roster Management page

Purpose: Create (import), edit, and maintain your roster of expected attendees.

Link: Roster Management

Attendance Profiles page Attendance Profiles page

Purpose: Create rules that define how attendance is calculated for specific meetings or meeting series.

Each profile specifies:

  • Included subgroups: Which roster groups to expect (e.g., only “Team A” for a specific meeting).
  • Late threshold: How many minutes after start before someone is marked “Late”.
  • Return window: How many minutes of absence before re-joining is marked “Returned”.
  • Hints: Optional keywords to auto-apply the profile to meetings with matching titles/IDs.

Example: You have a “weekly team sync” that expects 8 people from “Team A”, with a 5-minute late threshold. Create a profile for this meeting series so every time you start a meeting with “weekly team sync” in the title, AttendFlow auto-applies the profile.

If you manually apply a Name Match in the Meeting Panel that conflicts with existing Name Matching rules, that rule will not sync to the Settings Panel until you review and approve it in the Sync Review section. This is a safety mechanism to prevent accidental overwriting of Name Matching rules.
