Re: Tracking Church Council Minutes & Motions
Thank you 'beas'! And, actually, at our last council meeting something like that was proposed using Word too. I understand what you say about the search ability inside of Word docs, and yes it sounds like A solution, but I wonder if it is THE best solution, being that it is such an important part of...

Re: Tracking Church Council Minutes & Motions
So... all done by paper filing then? Wow, our church staff doesn't even do that. I'm from a United Church in Canada. I'm sure there must be 'By-Laws' or at least directions about this from the United Church of Canada head office, but I'm not privy to them. I'll have to start digging. Thanks for your...

Re: Tracking Church Council Minutes & Motions
I just re-read my original post, and I see that I forgot to mention the most important part of why I am looking for it to be in a database... :wall: It is to look up what was decided (Motions voted on) in the past when no one can remember, or when a whole new Council is in place, other than having s...

Tracking Church Council Minutes & Motions
Has there been any thought to, under Record Keeping, Storing and tracking Minutes & Motions that are made during Council or Congregational Meetings? I know I could simply create an MS Access Database to store them in. But that's what PowerChurch is, a Database , so it makes sense to use PowerChurch ...

Auto Fill, just like using a Cheque Reader
We all know that most people give the same amounts to the same funds each time they give. What I am hoping to find out is, I’ve been missing some simple trick to turning on an "Auto Fill" function of some sort, so that when I enter the Envelope Number and\or Amount, the distribution of Funds auto po...

Printing with Magnetic Ink
I am trying to speed up the entry process and reduce errors at the same time. I already print our own Offering Envelopes in house and am thinking of using Magnetic Ink to print the strip on the back so the reader can be used for every envelope. QUESTION: Has anyone done this? What problems can you s...

Re: Contribution types and bank deposits
Our Bank requires Cheque, Cash and Coin breakdown too. They want to know not only the totals of each, they want it broken down to how many of each different bills and coins too. :wall: I struggled with this for a while as we kept writing the whole deposit slip out by hand. Then, I realised :idea: I ...
