Donation Tracking To Identify Needs?
Posted: Sun Jun 07, 2015 10:57 am
Hello Brothers,
So, we are interested if compiling a bit of a spreadsheet that can be useful for our Bishop to identify financial and/or spiritual needs that are not known. Essentially, a mechanism to help the Bishop "seek out the poor and needy" in our ward.
The idea is to be able to see trends in the payment of tithes and offerings for each individual so we can detect major changes that might indicate either financial or spiritual needs that have otherwise not been identified.
Is there a way to extrapolate such trend data from the MLS system? If so, how is this best accomplished?
If this is not possible, I'd like to suggest it as a feature that might be very useful in a future update of the system.
Thanks Much & May God Bless You and Yours,
Bro. Bill Hanover
