Registering Households Online
Introduction
Overview
Registering households online is used to register households and individuals identities when you have internet access to SCOPE. All households and household members are registered directly to the SCOPE database.
Who is responsible for registering households Online?
Programme is normally responsible for registering households online. Check with your Country Office to confirm who in Programme is responsible in your country.
Why is registering households Online important?
SCOPE is a beneficiary management tool. You cannot run interventions without beneficiaries who have been registered beforehand. Registration is the process of recording minimum personal data of household members, recipients and alternates in particular. Registration is the first task that a Country Office needs to perform in SCOPE and must be done continuously to ensure data quality, i.e. adequate, accurate and up-to-date beneficiary data.
What do I need to do before registering households Online?
Your Country Office must be set up in SCOPE. Ensure that the correct master data has been submitted in the CO Initial Setup Data File. The file must contain the correct registration fields that your Country Office needs when registering people's identities.

In the Register Alternate Recipients page, enter the alternate recipient's details and biometric data.
Note: This functionality is used to register people's identities from outside of a household as the household's recipient (known as a principal or alternate). When this is done, it is extremely important to ensure that the household role is set as "not a household member", as failure to do so can result in the household receiving incorrect transfers. You can adjust any errors in household roles by editing the household in the Enrolment section of SCOPE.
