Staff cannot be present everywhere to see if all signed-up volunteers arrive for their task.
Sometimes volunteers go straight to the task location, because they already have their orange or green tshirt.
It can sometimes be hard to know how many runners are on-call (because dispatched or temporarily working the infodesk.
Therefore, some kind of sign-in and sign-out functionality would be great, where volunteers can do this themselves.
There should also be an admin overview to see if volunteers have signed into their task, so if people are lacking, runners can be sent to cover.
There should be various notifications, such as sending an email to a volunteer x minutes before a task starts, to remind them, and provide them a direct sign-in link. Just before a task ends, another email thanking them, along with a sign-out of task link should be provided.
It should also be possible for a volunteer to sign in and out via the standard tool.
If possible, notifications of missing sign-in should be reported via matrix bot.
