    OK, thanks, understood.

    Everyone - I would comments if you have similar needs.

    Alex,

    yes, this help, thanks.

    Let me confirm

    Are you talking about just using these amount as search criteria to select records? If so, what is the overall workflow - why do you need to select these and how would you use this afterwards?

    or are you talking about some kind of report by person?

    Dmitry Buterin commented  · 

    Alex,

    So in Wild Apricot terms we would talk about total invoiced amount, correct? (Or actually paid?)

    Do you need the total only - or by area (membership/events/donations/other)?

    Overall total or for a specific time period?

    Overall, I would appreciate more details about the workflow on how this would be used.

    I totally agree with your point about the usefulness of seeing a particular person's posts (And I would appreciate if you could create a thread on this) - but this thread is about something else, about seeing people who signed up to receive email notifications about a particular forum.

    I am curious - what is the situation when you need to find this out and how it would be used further?

    An error occurred while saving the comment
    Dmitry Buterin commented  · 

    Question: another way to look at this is to provide a way to specify default subscription option for new members - so they automatically get subscribed without having to do anything.

    E.g. there can be 'default forum subscription settings page' which would apply for new members and potentially can have an option to apply to existing users (e.g after initial import or if forums are changed around)

    What do you think?

    Will, there is currently no way to obtain this information, I will move this to our wishlist.

    You can currently export to Excel the list of registrants which does contain all registration fields - does this help?

    Penny,

    Do not worry, we would not take any unreasonable actions. And if you ever need more space, we can add extra space for a small one-time fee.

    Can you take me through your scenario in more detail? I am not sure I am getting what exactly you are doing and how you want system to behave.

    Very good point, thanks!

    Normally links to web pages use page ID which does not change when page is renamed - so old links still work. The only exception to this is if you use custom URLs - then inserted links use those and they do get broken when custom URL is renamed. Is that the situation you referred to?

    I would appreciate more detailed background on this - overall credentialing process. I suspect this is not uncommon among our users and if we do anything about it, it should be done right, with full understanding of the big picture.

    Well, this request still makes sense.

    I am thinking that we can add add a button to send payment receipt right from the invoice if it has been paid.

    Right now, our focus is to finish the CMS redesign in version 5 so we are putting everything else aside. Once we release it in the summer, we will review and tackle accumulated requests. We will post updates in relevant threads.

    In this scenario I would suggest not to copy the event but create new one from scratch.

    From what I have seen, the biggest benefit of copying people get is from:

    1) registration types

    2) Event-specific customized announcements and/or reminders

    About dates - we were not able to figure out how to automatically and transparently change all the dates when copying - I would appreciate ideas in this regard.

    After an internal discussion we realized that this is no a simple change and there is a variety of scenarios. So it's not something we can jump in and change quickly - but we would appreciate votes/comments/insight from other users - it would be of great help.

    Are you finding that people having trouble locating the renewal button?

    FYI, you can add a direct prominent link to renewal anywhere your site, e.g. in the header, see

    Bob, thanks understood. Currently, changing levels is not connected to the renewal at all, As this thread shows, this is a frequent request and something our product design team plans to work on this year.

    An error occurred while saving the comment
    Dmitry Buterin commented  · 

    Bob, can you comment re p.2 in your description - how exactly people renew at a different level right now, do they start a new membership application with a different email address or somehow else? (Since Wild Apricot renewal process does not have an option to change level)

    An error occurred while saving the comment
    Dmitry Buterin commented  · 

    Greig, thanks for posting.

    I would appreciate comments from others - is it common for people to change levels during renewal?

    Is this only due to payment terms tied to the level and a better long-term solution to allow membership levels with multiple payment terms for the same level?

    Keith, this does not look like something we would tackle for the time being.

    An error occurred while saving the comment
    Dmitry Buterin commented  · 

    Also, FYI - one thing we have in our pipeline is full tracking of all outgoing emails per contact (email blasts as well as automatic emails). I think this is closely related to what is being suggested - but I understand that you are also suggesting to track other interactions/actions and follow-ups (e.g. phone calls)

    I would appreciate more input re Outlook integration - examples of other systems doing this.

    As far as I understand, we are talking about displaying local Outlook data filtered by a specific recipient email.

    I have not come across this kind of functionality before. I can imagine this is possible in IE via ActiveX objects (and probably would require some installation/security settings to allow for a webpage to interact with Outlook) - but I have no idea if this can work in other browsers.

    Thanks for the comment. By the way, for now with manual blasts you can filter out already registered people via Advanced search in Contacts.

    Can you elaborate what exactly you would ideally like to see in the system?

    Did you consider simply sending a manual email blasts with links to various events?

    That particular thread was just a question/answer. I merged your post to the relevant wishlist request thread.

    Dmitry Buterin commented  · 

    Can you elaborate what particular email you are referring to? (Copy-paste contents of a sample one if you have it)

    The reason I am asking is that members should receive an invoice email already for level changes - and you can (and should) customize invoice email to include your address.

    It has been suggested by some users that it would be desirable to have an option when sending out newsletters to have them automatically converted into a web page and added to some kind of online archive.

    I would appreciate comments and votes.

    OK, thanks.

    I would really appreciate hearing from other users who need reporting like this - so that we can prioritize this.

    An error occurred while saving the comment
    Dmitry Buterin commented  · 

    Thanks for the elaboration. In this regard, are you interested at all in reporting by registration type?

    Let me draft something for the sake of discussion - please comment on this:

    ---

    Total event registrations: XXX (basically invoices corresponding to event registrations

    Online payments: YYY (invoiced and collected. Abandoned payments would not be included anywhere)

    Manual payments invoiced: ZZZ (XXX = YYY+ZZZ)

    Payments collected: AAA

    By tender:

    tender 1: A1

    tender 2: A2

    ...

    A1+A2+...=AAA

    Payments still outstanding: BBB (AAA+BBB=ZZZ)

    An error occurred while saving the comment
    Dmitry Buterin commented  · 

    The thing is that in the old system there was no clear cut distinction between revenue (income, invoices) and cash inflows (payments). Now there is clear distinction. Event payments report (I agree the name should be changed) is based in event registrations.

    So can you elaborate - maybe type up a quick sample of what exactly do you want to see? Income (based on who has registered) or cash received (based on payments received - full or partial).

    An error occurred while saving the comment
    Dmitry Buterin commented  · 

    OK, I think I know what you mean. I was talking about Finances/Payments report and I think you are talking about Event/Payments report - a different thing altogether, sorry about the confusion.

    Unfortunately that one displays payments by registration type, not by payment tender. I split this out into a separate thread. Please describe what do you ideally need and how it would be used.

    An error occurred while saving the comment
    Dmitry Buterin commented  · 

    System does display the totals for each tender so I am still not clear on what is the problem.

    Can you email us at tech support with an example of what you are seeing and what is missing? (Notice: if you do not have any online payments, there will be no line and thus no total for online payments)

    An error occurred while saving the comment
    Dmitry Buterin commented  · 

    The new payments report gives you a breakdown by payment tender - Online/manual and by custom tenders. So I do not think you have lost anything, I think the reconciliation will become much easier because with custom tenders you can separate checks from cash from discounts etc.

    Merged several posts together, so that both public and admins lists can be customized. This is better for analysis and design to work on them together.
