The enrollment report is **current state only** — no date range. Every time you load it, you see how many active, pending, and withdrawn children you have right now, broken down by center.

Use it for forecasting, monthly rollups, and answering the "how many kids do we have?" question.

## Run it

1. **Reports → Enrollment** in the sidebar.
2. It loads immediately — no filters needed.

## Status meanings

- **Active** — enrolled and attending. What your capacity planning cares about.
- **Pending** — enrolled but haven't started yet (future start date, or waiting on paperwork)
- **Withdrawn** — formerly enrolled, no longer attending. History, not current

The **Total Enrolled** stat card is the sum of all three. For current operational planning, focus on **Active**.

## Common use cases

### Monthly board report

Most centers show a "current enrollment by center" chart to their board each month:

1. Run the report.
2. Screenshot or export CSV.
3. Paste into your monthly update deck.

### Capacity utilization

Cross-reference with [Room Ratios](/owners/reports/check-staff-to-child-ratios) to see how close to licensed capacity you're operating. If you're at 85% enrolled across centers, you're healthy. At 100%, you're turning families away — time to think about expansion. At 60%, figure out why.

### Forecasting for waitlists

Subtract Active from room-capacity totals to see how many open spots exist. Compare to your waitlist / lead pipeline. This drives admissions timing.

## What the report doesn't show

- **Enrollment dates or history** — current state only, no trends
- **Per-child detail** — use the **Children** or **Families** page for individual records
- **Financial status** — enrolled children with unpaid invoices aren't differentiated here; see billing reports for that

## Export and print

- **Export CSV** — Center, Enrollments, Percent. Filename: `enrollment-{today}.csv`.
- **Print** — pie chart + table.

Annotations let you add context: "April snapshot — Westside Center has 3 pending pending paperwork from overseas transfers."

## Troubleshooting

**Active count doesn't match what I know we have.** Check that all active enrollments have the right status. Withdrawn children still show — just under a different category. Sum all three categories to double-check.

**Pending count is higher than expected.** Pending means future start date or incomplete paperwork. Go to **Families & Children → Families** and filter to pending to see each. Usually the fix is: start date already passed, status hasn't been bumped to Active.

**Withdrawn children still appear.** By design — historical records stay. If you want to exclude them, filter by center in the other reports (Enrollment has no withdrawn-hide filter).

**Multi-site org shows the same center twice.** Likely a duplicate center record from a migration. Contact support@nestlicare.com to merge.

**Pie chart looks empty.** All three categories are 0 — you have no enrollment records yet. Add some children first.
