Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing methods for conference check-in, such as offline forms and third-party questionnaires, are time-consuming and labor-intensive, leading to inefficient statistical processes.
Innovation Solution
A schedule check-in method and apparatus that integrates check-in functionality into the schedule creation process, allowing users to input check-in information during schedule creation, eliminating the need for separate questionnaires.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If separate questionnaires or offline forms are used for check-in, then check-in collection can be performed, but statistical processing becomes time-consuming and labor-intensive
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the check-in collection function with the schedule management function into a single integrated system. When a user creates or views a schedule, they can simultaneously perform check-in operations, and the system automatically processes and stores the check-in data within the schedule context, eliminating the need for separate statistical processing of standalone questionnaires or forms.
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables automatic processing of check-in data through self-service mechanisms. The check-in information is automatically captured, stored, and processed by the system without requiring manual statistical intervention. The schedule itself serves as both the collection container and the processing framework, reducing labor-intensive operations.
2Ease of operation
If separate questionnaires are used for check-in, then check-in information can be collected, but the process becomes labor-intensive
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple functions (schedule management, check-in collection, data storage, and statistical processing) into a single integrated system. The schedule acts as a unified container that holds both event information and check-in data, eliminating the need for separate questionnaire systems and reducing overall process complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The schedule system is designed with multi-functionality, serving both as an event management tool and a check-in collection system. The same interface and data structure are used for both scheduling and check-in operations, reducing the need for multiple separate systems and simplifying the overall process.
3Quantity of substance
If offline forms are used for check-in, then check-in data can be gathered, but statistical efficiency decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces manual mechanical processing of offline forms with an automated electronic system. Check-in data is captured digitally through the schedule system and processed automatically using computational methods, eliminating the need for manual data entry, compilation, and statistical analysis of physical or digital offline forms.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs automatic data processing and statistical analysis through self-service mechanisms. The check-in information is automatically stored, organized, and processed by the system without requiring external statistical intervention, thereby improving processing efficiency while maintaining the ability to collect comprehensive check-in data.

AI summary
The present application discloses a schedule check-in method and apparatus, a device, and a medium. When a user creates a schedule, in response to a schedule creation operation triggered by the user on a calendar client, schedule-related information input by the user is acquired. The schedule-related information includes check-in information, and a check-in time in the check-in information is related to a time corresponding to a first schedule to be created. The first schedule with a check-in function is created based on the schedule-related information, so that the check-in function can be implemented through the first schedule. That is, with the technical solutions provided in the present application, a schedule with a check-in function may be created, and there is no need to use a separate questionnaire for check-in, which is convenient for users to check in and improves the user experience.
