Crediting Volunteer Hours for Multiple People at Once

Getting Started

When a large group of volunteers all have the same hours, and these hours aren't associated with a specific assignment, using the Credit Volunteer Hours for Multiple People at Once is an efficient way of entering those hours.

Crediting hours

1. Determine the people to be credited. All of the people you select in this step will be credited with the same hours: job, location, start, duration, etc.
2. In the Person box, type in the first volunteer's name, date of birth, short ID code or kiosk ID code. VSys will pop up a list of the people who match that value. Select the appropriate person. Click on Select this person. The person will be added to the list of people to be credited.
3. To add people in bulk from a list, click on the Add from list link; VSys will show the available lists, and selecting one of these lists will add all of the people on it to those about to be credited.
4. Repeat these steps to add other people to be credited.
5. Remove someone inadvertently added here by right-clicking on their name and selecting Remove.
6. Now enter the hours themselves: Project (if applicable), Job, Location, Start date, Start time, Duration, Bonus duration (if applicable), Value, Miles, and other attributes.
7. Click Post hours to credit all of the selected people with these hours. If VSys is unable to credit one or more individuals here for any reason, e.g. they already have overlapping hours, it will show a message about those individuals but will still credit the others who were eligible.
