Entering more than one person at a time for events
So right now, I have events where I have to enter each person one by one in events.
Example: I have 30 people that attend an event, I have to have 30 entries.
If there was a way to enter more than one person at a time.
1 voteYou can bulk add volunteers to an event in Organizer Dashboard >> Volunteers

Approve Hours - include date volunteered
On the Approve Hours tab, it would be helpful to see the date the volunteer is submitting hours for. For example, it says "Bob volunteered for 8 hours." But if Bob is submitting hours for the last few weeks, it just lists that multiple times. It would be great if it said "Bob volunteered for 8 hours on 4/1/17"
1 voteIn the new approval dashboard, there is a column titled “Date volunteered”

Include last name or first name last initial in the Volunteer List
It would be helpful to have either fist and last name or first name last initial in the list of volunteers. We have a number of Amys and it gets confusing.
1 voteHey Clay, to do this make sure your profile fields in Organizer Dashboard > Settings > Volunteers are set to have a “display name”

be able to mass delete volunteers from the deleted users list
When going to the deleted users list, currently the only way to permanently delete them is one by one. It would be more efficient to be able to choose then like in a file manager and delete all at once. These are volunteers that have tried to set up their account when one was already set up for them.
1 voteYou can now bulk delete users via the archived volunteer list.

Please let me list volunteers with their last name
It is easier to have the volunteer list show the first and last name so that I can alphabetize by last name.
1 voteHi Yuni, you can reorder the profile fields so the last name is first and then everything will be sorted by their last name.

Expand All option on report summary
On the Hour Submissions tab of the Report Summary (on the Organizer Dashboard) it would be helpful to have the EXPAND ALL option for these submissions. It already exists on the Approve Hours tab of the Report Summary and it would be nice to have it on the other tabs as well.

Help Text
It would be great to have the ability to enter help text or upload documentation in the system to explain some of fields, etc. for users who may be unclear about what something means. This functionality may exist and I just not be aware of it.
1 voteYou can do this by adding a description for the field. In Organizer Dashboard >> Settings, click on the + sign next to the fields you add
-
Can we add a field for the date the vol date that the vol became a member of an org.
It would help us keep track of the length of time a vol has been associated with the org.
Thanks,
Steve Kramer

drop down menu
Can we have editable drop down fields added to a field? i.e. Our field is "What did you do?" and I'd like to add drop down choices to pick from. If this already exists, please let me know and how I can access this feature.
1 voteThis is possible by adding an additional “Picker Field” in Organizer Dashboard > Settings > Hour Log

Ability to email volunteers newsletters or lists of upcoming volunteer opportunities
I would love to have the ability of emailing volunteers of multiple opportunities at once, perhaps weekly or even monthly as a newsletter. As of now I have to use an outside bulk email provider and add links for each opportunity we have.
1 voteHi Ashley,
You can actually already do this. Check out this article here: https://www.trackitforward.com/content/send-email-blasts-your-volunteers

I need help!
why can I NOT approve someone trying to sign up for my site? It only gives me the option to approve and I do not know who this person is. This has happened a handful of times already. In the past I approve then go and delete the user. Now I can only achieve them. I need to be able to "not approve" them in the requesting stage.

ability to export data to a spreadsheet
It's difficult to see the data across the when trying to determine a volunteer's particular hours with all the other data (address, etc.) included
1 voteIn Organizer Dashboard > Reports there should be an export button all the way at the bottom.

choose color on Event signups
To be able to choose a different colors for different events on the signup calendar.
One color for ongoing events..... a different color for one time only activities.
1 voteWe put in some basic categorization of events, they aren’t colors but it is a text differentiation. If you go to create an event (or edit an existing event), you can now add a category. When viewing the event calendar, an option will appear that says “filter by category” where you can toggle different events by type.

it would be helpful if we could have different volunteer requirements for different people
families at the school are required to volunteer 50 hours. however, two household families can divide among the two parents, 25 each, or a single parent only has to volunteer 25 hours. i created 'multiple milestones' for these and thought i was good. but as far as the charts are concerned it requires all three of those 'requirements' for each volunteer. not quite getting at what i want. i want to know who met 'their' requirement, just one requirement, but different for different volunteers.
1 voteWe would recommend for this situation to instead allow a “grouping” field which would bind 2 household families together and then would share that 50 hour bucket. You can read more about grouping here: http://help.trackitforward.com/knowledge_base/topics/configuring-volunteer-profile?from_search=true

Bulk log hours by activity
It would be ideal if you could filter by activity and simply click on volunteers to add them to the activity. The import step is pretty manual in excel - it would be easier if we could edit mass entries that may need fixing permanently.

Less clicks
Easier to approve hours need less clicks
easier to add members to my committee hard to locate
Easier to locate as committee manager chair1 voteWe have made a variety of improvements to make less clicks:
- Created an approval dashboard to bulk approve
- Can approve via a mobile app
- Can add members via mobile app
-
Member Directory
Currently we use Track It Forward for hours tracking and a separate service for an online member directory. It would be great if we could combine those and do all that in Track It Forward.
1 voteTrack it Forward can extensively collect information about members using profile fields. this information, however is only available for organizers and not regular volunteers. What you could do is periodically export the volunteers list and publish the member directory.

Pre-fill hours from an associated event on the app
The website and mobile app do not align with hour submissions. When associating an event on the app, it does not prefill the hours from the event sign-up. We would benefit from that being a default setting where the event must be selected first to submit hours. We are having trouble with multiple members submitting random hours and random events.
