Bulk add participants to rosters
It would be great to be able to add multiple people to a roster at one time instead of having to do a multi-step process for each person. This would be especially helpful for committees and youth programs who have recurring events with the same people. It would allow committees to easily add and then bulk update volunteers hours tracking.
Please see the attached image for an example.

Multiple badges within a committee GH2933
As more committees move towards multiple leader badges, it would be helpful for committees to be able to easily assign more than one badge to their leaders (For example: Basic Snowshoe Leader and Intermediate Snowshoe Leader).
This would provide the ability for a committee to assign other specialty badges as well such as a "mentor" badge.
Committees should be able to assign these badges to a new leader or when editing an existing leader, and it would be very helpful if they could do all of it from within their committee roster.

Make field trip/lecture instructors push to course rosters SD381
Right now we have a lot of instructors who are just added or sign up to a single field trip roster. Unfortunately because they aren't added to the course roster they aren't available for recruiting via our mega course template roster for future field trips/lectures that particular year or in future years.
Also having the course show up in your My Courses & Programs is helpful for instructors who want a quick link to upcoming field trips for them to volunteer for. This is particularly important for the many day courses like basic, scrambling, sea kayaking etc.

Print Youth Program Forms SD647
We'd like to print the Youth Program Form(s) as we do for the Youth information Form(s) from the Youth Flag Report.
- We'd have two "print" buttons on the Youth Flag Report: "Print Youth Information Forms" and "Print Youth Program Forms"
- We'd use the same "line in the sand" (i.e. ~~~) to include only text/responses above the line for the program form(s) being printed.8 votesCompleted Jun 2019.

Branch Council Roster Positions GH2746
Please create positions specific to branch rosters:
Branch Chair
Branch Vice-chair
Branch Co-chair
Branch Secretary
Branch Treasurer
Branch Officer
MemberNote: "Member" is for branches whose committee chairs regularly attend branch council meetings but don't have a branch officer role (so its important we keep this) Thanks!

Notes/Questions
- I saw “Content Manager” used, so I added that to the list.
- Since “Members” are described as Committee Chairs, should we add “Committee Chair” to the list? Would that be better/more correct? If so, do we keep “Member”?
- Each committee has a new field called, “Committee Type” with three choices: Committee (the default), Branch, and Board of Directors (for the Board of Directors “committee” only).
- For each of the branches, you’ll need to first edit the committee and choose “Branch” for the “Committee Type” field and then edit the rosters to choose the correct “branch” position for each person. -
Committee roster updates based on activity level
One of the things were trying to do right now is clean up the roster, lots of old info there. Any chance those can be self updating fields? For example the scramble standard says leaders have to do at least one trip every 2 years. Something similar could work for instructors too.
5 votesCancelled · AdminJeff Bowman (Associate Director of Information Technology, The Mountaineers) respondedWe added the ability to download badges for all on a committee roster, so there is enough data for a “real human” to review and make decisions about a leader’s status. This is better than a costly automated system that could accidentally remove a person from a roster.

Offered Status Deadline - Transparent date/time ~Salesforce
Add specific date/time in offer email for the five-day cut-off. It currently says "5 days" but participants often want a specific time as to when they will be moved off.
This will help us better justify when a person is moved from the offered status and create more transparency in the process.

Improve Roster Functionality: Badge Rosters SD584

When viewing roster (from yellow bar) include date of activity somewhere near the top GH2326
Real helpful when I have multiple rosters for course-related activity. Example: Kayak Roll Course, with 3 associated pool sessions. I can easily get confused as to which one I am working on at the time. Right now, all three look identical. If dated would show up while in the roster editing screen, then I would instantly be able to verify which one is open.

Fully integrated Roster Management for Courses with multiple activities, and sections to complete to graduate.
Currently for a Course with multiple required activities one must download multiple CSV files and have the skill to basically develop a one time database and queries to track all students and who has completed what.
It would seem like the software provide would have reporting capabilities and modules that could be user facing to avoid this by using the source database.3 votesWe already have the desired functionality. There are “Review” links to everyone’s name on the course roster. Visit https://www.mountaineers.org/volunteers/leader-resources/schedule-a-course-clinic-or-seminar/schedule-a-course-clinic-or-seminar#manage-rosters to learn more.
If there is concern about all students registering for required field trips, be sure that all course activities are listed and open for registration when the course opens for registration. This way participants are prompted to choose activities when they register before getting to the checkout page.

Replace Roster CSV (download), Copy, Print Feature GH1578
