Group Member Attributes

Group Member Attributes

Group

Group member attributes are a wonderful way to customize tracking group members for different ministries. Some group member attributes are only needed for some groups and not all groups of the type. There are a couple of NEEDED enhancements to these.

1. When a person with security to edit and administrate a group adds group member attribute fields to the group, the security is not inherited on those attributes so that they can then manage that information on the members of the group. (This is a reported bug)

2. Reporting on the Group member attributes in a DV or report -- there is no existing filter when the group member attributes are at the Group level instead of group type level.

3. Scheduling of group members-- it would be helpful if the attribute filters could carry over into scheduling so that you could filter group members by the filters on on the group members to then be able to schedule people that are set to campuses or teams via the group member attributes.
