Important Note: This feature requires the Hall Pass Plus add-on.
Staff can now schedule the same hall pass for multiple students in one step. Bulk scheduling saves time when a group of students is going to the same place at the same time, such as an assembly, a field trip, or a testing session.
⚙️ Before You Begin
- Up to 100 students can be added to a single bulk scheduled pass.
- All students on the pass share the same approving staff member, date, start time, and location.
- Before the pass is scheduled, each student is checked for conflicts, such as an overlapping hall pass or a block with another student.
- Bulk scheduled passes can be created and managed in both the web portal and the PBIS Rewards Staff App.
📅 Schedule a Bulk Hall Pass
- Select Hall Pass in the left-side menu.
- Select My Scheduled Passes at the top of the page.
- Click + Add New Scheduled Hall Pass in the upper right corner.
- Search for and select each student to include on the pass. Click the trash icon to remove a student from the list.
- Choose the approving staff member, date, start time, and location.
- Click Schedule Hall Pass.

👀 View Bulk Scheduled Passes
Bulk scheduled passes appear as one row in My Scheduled Passes.
- A +N badge shows how many other students are included on the pass. Select the badge to see the full list of students.
- The Status column shows whether the pass is Pending Approval, was Approved or Denied for all students, or was Managed Individually.

Important Note: If you edit a bulk scheduled pass, it returns to Pending Approval, and every pass on it must be approved again.
✅ Approve or Deny Bulk Scheduled Passes
- Select Hall Pass in the left-side menu, then select Scheduled Passes to Approve at the top of the page.
- Open the dropdown on the bulk pass and choose an option:
-
Approve all: Approves the pass for every student.
-
Deny all: Denies the pass for every student. A denial reason is required and applies to all students.
-
Manage Individually: Opens a window where you can approve or deny the pass for each student. A denial reason is required for each student who is denied.
- Click Save.

Note: You can view whether passes were approved or denied on the Scheduled Passes to Approve tab, and you can change a pass's status at any time until the pass takes place.
