  • Put this in the greeter guide
  • enforce the changes

remodel the data

better definition of the member types (Roles) :

• patron : change this to 'non-member'
• staff
• youth (under 18)

add additional daily states (Activities)

• Visiting
• Volunteering
• Staff mechanic (instead of just staff hanging out in the shop)
• attending a class

add additional services

• Staff in training
• Volunteer hours, can we track their individual hours ?
• Key holder

better tracking of memberships and attendance

• sign in all staff mechs on a shift
• identify when a memberships is a renewal or a new membership
• enforce some required fields. ZIP and PHONE (or email)
• add a Youth (under 18) field.
• flag to show if the liaiblity form was signed
• check people into classes

better tracking on the "in the shop today" list

• Highlight people who are Staff mechs for that shift
• highlight people who have digging rights

Better Tracking on notes

• auto enter the date on a note
• make a note sticky so it always shows in the daily sign in list

better reporting

• summary report

Create a new report that lists memberships per week/month and if they were volunteer or paid for and if they were a renewal.

explain the columns on the 'summary report'.. 'Patron' overlaps with other values.

break them out as : TOTAL, Staff, MEMBERS, non-members, youth , ( and volunteer as an additional # AFTER the TOTAL)

• Visits report

group each user, report the number of visits in the time period

• People report

list if they have a membership and the start date of that membership

• services report

group all services under one person for a date range

Add new reports

• Current volunteers
• current staff in training
• Current digging rights owners
• Current keyholders
• expired members (so we can actively renew them)
