Supporters
Manage supporting members without an instrument and without an account – including honors.
Not everyone who belongs to the club plays an instrument. Supporters – also called supporting members – back the club without actively making music. They have their own lean directory.
A supporter entry contains personal data only. Deliberately, there is:
- no part and no section – supporters don't play,
- no login account – supporters don't use the app,
- no status like active members have.
In return, you can record honors for each supporter – for example, for many years of loyalty.
Supporter or active member?
If someone plays along or should use the app, that person belongs in the member directory, not among the supporters. Supporters are meant for everyone who only supports the club.
Adding a supporter
You'll find the supporters in the menu under "Supporters".
Start a new supporter
Open "Supporters" and tap "New".
Enter personal data
Record name, address and contact. A field for notes is available for internal remarks.
Save
With "Save", the supporter lands in the list.
Recording honors
Open a supporter to see their detail view. There you record honors – for example, an award for 25 years of support.
Enter the details and save
Enter the honor and save. It then appears in the supporter's detail view.
Active members can have honors too
You can record awards and badges not only for supporters, but also for active members in their detail view.
Who may manage supporters?
Adding and editing supporters is allowed for people with the right permissions – usually the board or an administrator.
