Article Summary

Infoodle allows you to quickly record the number of hours volunteers work. To do this they need to be part of a group.

The number and structure of groups is largely your choice. For example, if you have one group of volunteers, or other groups or sub-groups of volunteers together with similar tasks.

For more information on adding groups, see Adding a Group.

To add Volunteer Hours

  1. Go to the Groups list page, locate the group of volunteers and select the Volunteer Hours icon (the clock)

  • If a person performed more than one task, click on the + icon and add the additional task and hours.

  • If each person in the group completed the same number of hours, click on the down arrow as in step 3.

The tick icon indicates it has been saved.

Viewing Volunteer Hours

You can now view the Volunteer Hours via a number of different ways:

  • View the group - this displays the hours for all volunteers in the group

The Volunteer Hours will include the hours entered via the Volunteer Hours page as well as the hours accumulated while attending an event.

To be able to record volunteer hours you need to be the administrator of the group or have "Maintain all groups" permission in your role.
