Do you track class name or just class?

I am in the process of setting up skills and acitivites and I'm a little confused. Is it possible to track what Sunday School class an adult is in? Not just that they are attending Sunday School but that they are in?

For example

John Smith attended Sunday School: Minor Prophets
Sue Givens attended Sunday School: Hymns

so on and so on. Same as for our Women's Group.
Can we show what study they are doing?

You would typically create a separate activity for each Sunday School class. Do people change each week what class they attend?

In our small groups some of the studies only last 6 weeks. After that they start a new one. If some attends one book and then skips one - we want to be able to track what they have done. Does this make sense?

For example- if our mom's group did Becoming a woman who loves last fall can we pull this info up and see who did it - not just who is a member of the mom's group?

It does make sense, but you'll have to ceate a separate activity for each book you use. The activity number can be up to 4 digits so I would start it someplace where you know you won't run out of activity numbers.

So that it would look something like this.

Bible Studies - 5000 (this would be your main activity header, so to speak)
then
5001 - Parables of Jesus
5002 - Ephesians
5003 - Galatians
5004- Becoming a Woman

etc.
