Determine cumulative book awards
« on: June 06, 2013, 04:08:10 PM »
This post is applicable in the Cloud database's Windows App as well as in the Legacy database.

Comment from survey:

As Secretary for Trek, it would be nice to see all book awards on one screen. Not have to go back to previous years to see if a clubber is due an Excellence, Timothy or Meritorious trophy.

Tip:
To see all of the book awards, go to the main Awards module. At the top, choose Show: All Awards, Earned in Year: (All), and On Date: All Dates. Apply a filter to the "Source" column by clicking the black down arrow in the column header and checking the box next to "book". In this case, also filter the column for Club Name to show only "Trek".

Additionally, group the records for specific information:

By "Member Name" - expand a clubber to see all of his/her book awards. [The same information can be shown on a clubber's individual Awards tab by choosing All Awards and All years; but the main Awards module provides access to multiple clubbers without opening the individual records.]

By "Award Name" - expand a specific award, like "Timothy Award and Pin", to see a list of who has earned that award.

[Details on working with grids (like filtering and grouping) are available in this video: https://www.approvedworkman.com/forum/index.php?topic=2217.0.]

While I hope that information is helpful, AWdb can calculate the cumulative awards. The cumulative awards are based on completed books, not on prior awards earned, so be sure all completed books that count towards a cumulative award are entered and marked as completed. For information on entering historical books, see this post: https://www.approvedworkman.com/forum/index.php?topic=1685.0.

If historical books are entered and awards aren't triggering correctly, see this post for additional help: https://www.approvedworkman.com/forum/index.php?topic=1342.0.
