One of the nifty little features in Church Membership Online is the ability to print a contributions statement formatted specifically for windowed envelopes. This reduces the workload of sending out contributions statements as you don't have to print out the To and From addresses on envelopes. Here are two examples of window envelope dimensions that will work with our contribution statement windowed envelope formatting.

Single Window

Double Window

These video tutorials show you how to quickly and easily sync your Church Office Online individual information with Gmail or Outlook contacts.

If you require an envelope contribution feature for simple, accurate, confidential recording of weekly offerings then Church Office Online has just met your need.

Our Envelope Contribution Feature maintains confidentiality because it does not require the name of the individual or household to appear on the envelope that is placed in the offering.

Envelope Contribution Benefits

• Simplifies record keeping
• Maintains Confidentiality

How simple is it?

First, with your Administrative, Pastoral, or Financial user login enter the number in the “Envelope Number” field located in the individual’s record in the overview tab then select “Save”.

Second, go to Contributions and select the “Add Envelope” contributions where you will enter the date, envelope number, category and amount of contribution. The program automatically assigns the contribution to the individual.

Envelope Contributions Video Tutorial

There is a very short video tutorial which will also show you how to export a file to permanently assign those numbers to Individuals or Households and use it to help you get started.

We are always hard at work improving our church management software, Church Membership Online. Thanks to your feedback and suggestions we have updated Church Membership Online with some exciting new features and enhancements. This release is live now and is highlighted by our new Child Check-In feature.

Church Child Check-In Feature

Using Church Membership Online, you can now quickly and easily create Child Check-In rosters and print out check-in forms before a Ministry event, Sunday School, etc. You can also specify how many blank rows (or create an entirely blank check-in form) you want on each roster.

Child Check-In Features

• Create Ministries to track classes or groups and add children as "Attenders"
• Create a Ministry Child Check-In roster and auto-populate the children's names
• Create a blank Child Check-In roster
• Define as many blank Child Check-In rows per roster as you like
• Save the Child Check-In roster to Excel, Word, PowerPoint, PDF, etc.

Enhancements and Updates

In addition to the new Child Check-In feature, we also released a several requested enhancements and updates.

• We added Gender and Ministry filters to the Mailing Labels.
• We added a Windowed Envelope option to the Individual Contributions in REPORTS (so no need to run off labels - just purchase #9 Standard Windowed Envelopes; window must be 1 inch from left and 3/4 inch from bottom).
• Also in REPORTS we allowed for specific categories in Contributions Overview. So you can request a report on one category if needed.
• We added a rolling total to the Add Individual Contributions feature. This gives you a quick sum of all contributions entered at that time.

We hope you like the new features and enhancements! As always, feel free to contact us for any reason.

• View and mark attendance for just those individuals who are on the Ministry List assigned to an Event / Meeting.
• No more saving attendance lists; attendance is recorded immediately after you check the box next to an individual.
• Quickly and easily record attendance for any individual in your church, even if they aren't part of the ministry.

Custom Fields Reporting

We have also added the ability for you to create reports of your CUSTOM FIELDS. You can select one or more Individual or Household custom fields and even add a filter. For Instance: You created a “Hobbies” custom field for Individuals and you want to know who your photographers are. Just select “Custom Fields” in REPORTS and click on the “Add Custom Field Report Criteria” and select “Hobbies”, then type in “Photography” in the “Has Value“ field then “Run Report”.

You will notice we did away with the left side bar and designed a Mega Menu which you can view by placing your mouse/arrow over the Menu Bar.

We believe this change offers a significant improvement to the user experience of Church Membership Online.
