Use Group Requirement Jobs

The Group Requirements features rely on two system jobs. These jobs can be configured under Admin Tools > Settings > System > Jobs Administration.

Calculate Group Requirements

This job comes pre-configured and running in Rock. Every night it runs to check that all the group members met their requirements.

Send Group Requirements Notification

This job does not come pre-configured. You can set up this job to send a warning communication to group leaders when a group member does not meet the requirements. These communications will go to group members whose role has been configured with the 'Receives Requirements Notifications' setting. This can be configured under:Admin Tools > Settings > General > Group Types.Below is a listing of settings for this job.

  • Notification Email Template: This is the system communication template that you want to use to format the communication. Rock provides a sample communication entitled Group Requirements Notification that's configured to meet most needs.
  • Group Types: The group types you want to check the requirements on.
  • Notify Parent Leaders: This setting will notify the roles of parent groups of the group. This follows the hierarchy of the group structure all the way to the top. This ensures that top-level group leaders will receive notifications for all the groups under them.
  • Accountability Group: The group you select here will get a listing of all group members not meeting requirements. Some might call this fascism, but we prefer "inspect what you expect."
