WHO really updated the Member’s Record?

By DCO Mike

A Club Secretary asks “WHO really updated the Member’s record?”. 

The answer is pretty simple…as the Club Secretary, you automatically get a copy of the RI e-mail notification that is sent whenever ANYBODY makes a change to ANYONE in your club…regardless of WHO actually made the change (the Member, another Club Officer, or a District Officer).

HOWEVER, we also capture the ACTUAL person who made the change.  It shows up as their RI ID# in parentheses (e.g.: 2057792) after the name of the Club Secretary (on the “submitted by” line of the e-mail to RI).

So, if you want to KNOW WHO actually made the change, you can PASTE that RI ID# into the Member FIND function.  Usually I first look to see if the Member ID for the member being updated is the same as the RI ID# in the parentheses (e.g.: 2057792).  In addition, if you view that Member’s record in EDIT mode, then the last line of data at the bottom of the screen (after the Comments), shows the last person, with a Time/Date stamp, that updated this Member’s record.

That’s it!   And, I hope this helps.  Also, there are 2 web sites with all the club secretary functions defined with instructional videos and written “step by step” help guidelines. Go to either:  www.DaCdb.com   -or-   www.HowToDoIT.cc
