Each District Foundation Alumni Coordinator (DFAC) can request an EXCEL file from RI for their districts’s “alumni”; just send an e-mail request to: alumni@Rotary.org
Then, this data can be used to key-in the data into the DaCdb, -or- it can be used to “import” the data directly into the zAlumni Club (a special “club” for non-Rotarian Alumni) in the DaCdb. There is a one-time charge to import the Excel file, and there are no charges IF you key-in the Alumni data into the DaCdb. Also, there are no other charges relating to hosting and processing the Alumni Club data in the DaCdb.
And, we have updated the “alumni awareness” in the DaCdb to automatically connect all Alumni Club members to the ALUMNI-ALL Members (ALU) district committee record. And, then link any Member of a regular Rotary Club, that has the “ALUMNI of Rotary” participation button ON to the “ALU” district committee. So, any alumni person Added (or Deleted) in the ALUMNI Club, will be ”linked/unlinked” to the “ALU” district committee accordingly. Likewise, link any Member of a regular Rotary Club, that has the “ALUMNI of Rotary” participation button ON, to the “ALU” district committee, (or, unlink them IF the button is changed to OFF (after being ON).
Also, we have changed the summary screens for ALUMNI Club and the “ALU” district committee to display the BUSINESS POSITION field as their “participation” for ALUMNI Club members: e.g. AS-toFrance-2006 -or- GSE toTaiwan-2006 NOTE: We do not have a separate field (yet) for Rotarian members participation data…so, will just have to put it in COMMENTS until we can get a separate field.
