If a family registered to another parish participates in your parish by donating, participating in Religious Education, or receiving a sacrament you can add them to your family list without registering them.
To add a family without registering them:
- In Family Directory under Family List, select the Add New Family button.
- Enter the Last Name of the Family and any other information you have and click Search.
- The subsequent list will give the Family Name, Registered Organization, etc.
- If found, select the family by clicking the radio button to the left of the family name.
- Select the Add Selected Family button and choose As Unregistered from the drop-down menu.
- If the family is not found, you may Add New Family and unmark the Registration Status checkbox before saving the record.
- You will get the below pop-up message. Select OK.
You will now be able to Post Contributions to this record. Keep in mind, to find this unregistered member when posting contributions, you must set your Posting Filters to:
- Family Registration Status: Both
- Family Group: All Groups
