"Print security code on badge" isn't printing a parent label

With the recent update, I noticed that the check-in options for classes had changed slightly. I had selected "Print security code on badge. (This also prints a parent/claim label)", but on Sunday morning I noticed that no parents were receiving claim labels. It's still printing bag labels and note l...

Use Webcam to Capture Family Photo

Hey everyone, I've searched for this in the forums, but I don't think it's been addressed. It may end up being a wish list idea. We're starting a new food pantry ministry and we'd like to take pictures of the families to help us keep track of who we're serving. We're tracking their use of the food p...

Re: Checking in children of divorced parents

If one of the parents has primary custody, then you could leave the children under that parent. Then the "other" parent could just check them in by typing in the kids' name (instead of their name, or the other parents' name). It's still going to pull up the other family, but maybe by directing them ...

Re: Dymo Printer Issues - WEEKLY

I've never had a printing problem with one of my newer computers, so this might warrant a call to tech support. You shouldn't be having those kinds of issues. I would probably try uninstalling and reinstalling the printer, and verifying all the setup options are correct.

Re: Dymo Printer Issues - WEEKLY

We sometimes have a problem printing tags, but we're printing from a very old XP computer to a networked Dymo printer. I think we're encountering hardware and network issues, rather than a printer issue. So, my question would be, what are the specs of your computer and is the printer plugged directl...

Re: Birthdays & Anniversaries

At this point, I don't think there's a report that will combine birthdays and anniversaries together in a sorted list. I don't think it would be possible with a custom report either. The B&A report can do one report for all dates, and it sorts it by month. Or you could run a separate report for each...

Sunday School Check-In / Attendance (The Long Version)

Long story... we're using Checkin during our Sunday School hour to register attendance for all ages/classes. Our people have done great transitioning over to the computer, but we're having some issues in the office getting a very accurate count. We're making some changes to how we do things to elimi...

Re: envelope number for all family members

The only place I've seen for assigning envelope numbers is in the personal profiles. No shortcuts that I'm aware of. Is there something specific you're looking for? Or just expecting something under the contributions module?

Re: Spreadsheet of emails of parents

I really thought there was an easier way to do this, but I did find one way. 1. Reports - Activities & Skills 2. Class Family Directory 3. Select the activity. Then I turned off all phone numbers, pictures, birthdays, and anniversaries so it would only provide emails. 4. Run the report. 5. Click the...

Re: Visitors

If you want your PowerChurch number to be your actual attendance number with visitors, here's what I've done in the past. I created a few Visitor Families, with multiple family members just named "Adult Male Visitor" "Adult Female Visitor" "Teen Male" "Child Female" etc. Then when I did attendance, ...

Re: Import PayPal Contributions

I would like to bump this thread as a possible wishlist item for discussion. Our church is about to start using PayPal and an import function would be very useful. Would it be possible for PowerChurch to import data and then go through a manual selection screen to match items from the import file to...

That's actually very helpful. Just need some way other than visually checking and trying to remember duplicates. Thanks!

Enrolled in 2 Sunday School Classes

Hey everyone, I'm trying to think of a way to run a report that would either 1) calculate the number of people in classes, but not including multiple enrollments for the same activity type or 2) show me if someone is enrolled in 2 sunday school classes. In our denomination, we maintain a "responsibi...
