Overview
Program notes can be a very helpful tool to help you organize tasks for your team members, having reminders of operational needs, and for rental quotes and agreements. Although referred to as program notes, these notes also appear for rental programs.
Highlights
Common uses of program notes include:
- Individual tasks for your team members
- Set-up and operational details for programs and rentals
- Kitchen notes to appear on the Meal Report
- Standard text blocks for rental quotes and agreements
Accessing Program Notes
Go to Settings > Program > Program Notes: Manage Tasks & To-Do's to create or manage global settings for program notes. Program notes will appear for all programs.
- You can use the hamburger icon (the rectangular lines to the left of each program note) to arrange the order of the program notes.
- This order will be used for all programs.
- An id/slug will be created automatically when you enter a Note category title and click on Save Changes.
- This id/slug is used to uniquely identify the program note - you may change the title and the default content at a later date, but you cannot change the id/slug from its original value.
- You can also remove program notes that are no longer needed.
Individual tasks lists for your team
Create a simple task list for your team members that can be viewed by everyone involved with the management of your programs, rentals, and events.
Within Program Note Settings, entering default content for each team member is optional, but can help keep tasks organized. See the example below.
- Remember: These program notes will appear for every program and include the default content.
When viewing the program (advanced tab) you will be able to view the program notes and make updates. Updates made at the program level will affect that program only.
In Programs view, select the Program notes in Screen Options that you wish to monitor.
Set-up and operational details for programs and rentals
Create room setup details and other notes for your operations team that can be viewed by everyone involved with the management of your programs, rentals, and events.
Within Program Note Settings, entering default content for each operational detail is optional, but can help keep specific tasks organized. See the example below.
When viewing the program (Edit Program) under the Advanced tab, you will see the program notes.
In this example, we included common set-up details for both the Forest View and Garden View meeting rooms.
- Initially, the default content will be displayed.
- However, since only the Forest View room will be used for the Practice of Loving Kindness program, the Garden View notes can be deleted.
- Modifications to the program note for this program will only affect this program - the global default content configured in Settings will remain unchanged.
Kitchen notes to appear on the Meal Report
Create notes for your kitchen team, either to confirm standard meal times or notify them of special mealtimes for a certain program. Or, remind them of special coffee service or snack times.
Within Program Note Settings, entering default content for kitchen notes is optional, but can help keep specific tasks organized. See the example below.
These kitchen notes will appear on the Meal Report.
See Rentals & BEO (Banquet Event Order) for more ways to use Program Notes & Manage your To-Do's.
