Some of our activities require volunteers from Friday evening to Sunday evening - it would be good to see the volunteer activity show as three days vs one in the calendar.

I would like to be able to customize event registration. I would like to be able to add fields such as t-shirt size, location preference for volunteering, number of people attending (if a group), etc.

This advanced registration option would allow you to gather information about your volunteer that is specific to your organization!

In addition to the current set of hours cumulation widgets, it would be great if there were one for "current year" totals.

It would be nice if Field supervisors could easily view and/or print the names and hour totals of their volunteers. At the moment, when they click the volunteer tab, they see everyone.

Would there be a way for volunteers to generate a “pretty” report of their hours with totals, graphs etc? We are a school, and our volunteers are students, so we’re thinking of something that would be added to the student’s portfolio for use in applying to colleges.

I'd like to run a report by the event name. We have recurring events and I'd like to send an email out to all volunteers who have volunteered for that event regardless of the date. This would allow me to promote the series of the event to those who already have experience. Currently I have to open each event throughout the year and down load the volunteers then filter out duplicates, blah blah blah.

We’ve noticed that there is no way for an approver to know if an organizer reported an issue after the hours are already approved. Is there some way that approvers can be notified when an organizer reports an issue? It is clear before the approval because of the little red icon that shows, but after approval the only way is to go and find that volunteer log and see the issues reported on it. And an approver would never do that, because they are not notified of any reports.

I would like to be able to see total volunteer hour trends monthly over time (ie. year-to-year), both at the individual staff member level and as an aggregate - similar to the "Volunteer Hours" chart on the Organizer Dashboard, but with a customizable (and extendable) time period. Our organization compares (recruitment) hours to (child) enrollment monthly, and we really need a better and easier way to see correlations between the two, if any.

Improved reporting capability - perhaps with graphs - would really be helpful.

With regards to milestones it would be helpful for the “custom” setting to have a start AND end field

Have events name show up as another column, because right now when you verify hours there is no activity associated to an event. Therefore we have to write the event name on the note in order to be able to tell what the hours belong to.
It will be great if there was an activity column and an event column, so Events can have their names posted.

Some volunteers prefer text communication rather than email. The ability to choose which communication option the volunteer would prefer would be great.

Automatically generated and emailed to volunteer or manager for distribution (manager choice). Something to automatically let the students know when they've achieved milestone.

When a volunteer cancels, provide a text box for a reason for cancellation. Box can be optional.

A general area where documents can be posted for volunteers to be able to access.

We use Events to see who is coming to a meeting. We need to know who is definitely not coming as well as those who are coming. Not being able to record a NO for RSVP is confusing to many of our volunteers. A negative RSVP should be for the whole event and not individual shifts.

Can you have a maximum or minimum amount of hours each volunteer is able to have in each activity?

So, the organizer can be able to close the event a day or two earlier to stop people from signing up for an event. (ie. deadline)

Generate Certificates for Volunteers for the amount of hours they've done

We have different kinds of Milestones and it would be great if we could track both simultaneously and not have to choose.
