Substitutes

[Carol Shepard]

How can we make all volunteers in a particular ministry be available to substitute for service times that are not their usual preference?

Hi Carol, 

I would recommend sending in your data files (Help - Send Data Files to Tech Support) so we can take a closer look at your setup and give you the best path forward!

Raina -

Carol is not the only one with this question. Most of my volunteers in all ministries want to be able to jump in and help out even if it's not their preferred service. I get a lot of phone calls with people asking me to do an end-run around the software to allow them to volunteer for an open position. Kind of defeats the purpose of automation when I have to manually add them.

Blessings,

Hi Megan, 

If you are just looking to send out the sub requests to ALL other services to volunteers who are not regularly scheduled there, then you can use this tip to broaden your reach: Send sub requests to more volunteers to get positions filled

However, if you want volunteers to be able to choose which services they get requests for, we will definitely need to see your data files (Help - Send Data Files to Tech Support) to see how things are set up. That offer is open to anyone!

I think one nice solution would be to be able to add a different service time to profile, but designate that one as sub only. Alternatively, maybe something in the set up for the emails that sends it to everyone who does not have a "Can't serve time" for that service, not just those who have selected the service as a preference.

Peace,

Lynn
