Using Quick Actions

Follow

Quick Actions is a new feature in Church360° that allows you to quickly jump to common tasks from anywhere on your site (outside of the Ledger portion of the software) without navigating through menus.

There are two separate Quick Actions tools, Quick Actions and Ledger Quick Actions.  This article describes the Quick Actions tool for People, Events and Attendance, and Offerings, and can be accessed as described below from anywhere but the Ledger portion of the software.

Accessing Quick Actions
  1. Log in to your Church360° site.
  2. Press the keyboard shortcut:
    Ctrl + Shift + S
    (Hold down Ctrl and Shift, then press the S key.)
  3. A Quick Actions box will appear on your screen.
Available Tasks in Quick Actions

From the Quick Actions box, you select from the following tasks:

  • Add Person – Create a new person record in your database.
  • Add Offerings – Record offerings for your congregation.
  • Add Attendance – Track attendance for events or services.
  • Add Event – Schedule a new event on your calendar.
