5.6 Church Status Processing Page 5.6.1
=============================================================
Here you maintain the member status information for your
Church. CMS is pre-configured for three standard status
categories. You may delete these and substitute your own, or
you may add to the existing list.
To begin with "Church Status Processing" from the "Groups"
menu:
Select "Church Status Process.", and then press <Enter>.
The "Church Status Table" will appear. The first time you
select this feature the screen may look like this:
===============================================================
| Church Status Table |
===============================================================
| Code | Church Member | Description |
==============================================
| NM | Y | Non-Resident Member |
| PR | N | Prospect |
| RM | Y | Resident Member |
| | | |
| | | |
| | | |
| | | |
==============================================
As you see, three status categories have already been filled
in.
Let us take a look at the options available from the
"Options" menu at the bottom of the screen.
Note: The <F> and <R> options are not available from the
"Options" menu on the "Church Status Table" screen.
