Note: Activities & Skills data is required if converting Attendance.
Attendance data in PowerChurch is person, date, and activity specific. It is not possible to record attendance counts for a date. You must have a Present, Absent, Excused, or Not Applicable status for each person for each date for this information to be converted. Otherwise, it is not possible for attendance data to be converted.

Note: If you do not have envelope number/contributor ID assigned in your existing data, this will be added automatically in the data conversion. Envelope numbers are required in PowerChurch.
Contribution data includes the list of "funds" or different things people are able to contribute to, and date-specific giving history.

Note: Contribution data is required if converting Pledges.
Pledges/Faith Promises can be added to the Contribution data. PowerChurch allows you to set up pledges with weekly, monthly, quarterly, yearly, or "one-time" pay frequency. Each pledge is envelope, fund, and date range specific. A contributor can have multiple pledges going on at the same time as long as the pledges are to different funds.

Note: Accounting information can never be converted in PowerChurch. This includes accounts, balances, budgets, transactions, etc.
If you have non-accounting data that is not listed in one of the groups above, we may still be able to convert it for you. Our developers will need to see the data to be converted before issuing a quote for the actual cost of the conversion.

Please provide details about the additional information that you would like to have converted:

If you have data in more than one program or data set that you will need combined into a single PowerChurch data set, the process is much more complex. Our developers will need to see the data to be converted before issuing a quote for the actual cost of the conversion.
Please provide details about the programs you are converting from and the data contained in each:

Church/Organization Information

(program name)
(program version)
(For example: username/password required to access the backup, known problems in your existing data, or any other useful information you can pass along to our developers)
