Club Assignments

Overview
The Assignment module enables clubs to track and plan out the assignments (roles) needed at future club meetings. The module provides a simple drag and drop interface, with all the club members listed in the left column and all the assignments in the matrix in the middle. Club Members performing a role are simply dragged from the list on the left into the cell in the matrix corresponding to the activity (role) they will performing associated with the club meeting.

  1. Members can be assigned multiple times
  2. Multiple members can be added to a single cell (a specific activity for a specific club meeting).
  3. Each “assignment” can be augmented with an optional comment. For example, a member responsible for finding a speaker for the week, can be added to the Speaker column, and the speaker name and topic can be added.

Reporting
At this time, the assignment matrix can be exported to Word and Excel. Over time, based on user requests, additional reports will be added to the module.

The assignments can be PMailed to ALL member in the club or only Members that are assigned a task on the calendar
