Major Upgrade to Manage Registrants

All Groups View, Instant Drag & Drop, Party Manager, and more…

About a year ago, I wrote an article explaining some of the problems we were having with the new FundEasy regarding performance and page load. Ultimately, it has been practically impossible to work with large events and view all the groups on the same screen — a highly requested feature.

Today, I’m happy to announce that the wait is over. The newly improved Manage Registrants tool has been released and is here to stay!

Cool! What’s new? I’m so glad you asked.

All Groups View

For the first time in the new Manage Registrants tool, you can now view all your groups or teams on a single page, just like in the old Ministry Sync. This page has infinite scrolling, meaning that your event data loads into memory and offloads as you scroll to keep your browser happy. This also greatly improves the speed of this page.

If you have a large monitor, you’ll be happy to know that you are no longer limited to two columns. We will add as many columns to your screen allows as you make the window wider.

Instant Drag & Drop

Before, you had to click the checkbox next to the person’s name in order to drag them. To make it even harder, we gave you a small little drag icon you had to use to drag them — we’re sorry about that!

Now, you can just click and drag anyone, anywhere (even to the sidebar!).

New Party Manager

This has been one of the most requested features in the New Ministry Sync since we launched. Now, you can merge parties, split parties and organize parties inside the Manage Registrants tool — and it’s so much easier than before!

We are so excited about the new Party Manager, that we created a new walkthrough video showing you exactly how you can start using it!

Check it out:

View as Report

You might notice a new link in the top right corner of the screen called “View as Report”. This replaced an icon that allowed you to switch between Group View and List View. List View was a new concept we were playing around with in the beta version. We still like the concept of it, but it was slowing down the tool. For now, we decided it was best to pull it and work on improving that separately. It will probably return back to Ministry Sync in the near future.

“View as Report” is almost the same thing, but it’s loading the group using the Customer Report Builder in a modal. You can even change the columns and export the selected groups to a CSV file if you need to.

Easily Compare Groups

Comparing groups is now easier than ever. Before, if you wanted to see groups side-by-side, you had to click the box next to the group name. Now, simply just click on whatever group names you want to see. All finished? Click the “Clear” link at the stop to clear your selection.

Of course, there are a lot of little details I’m sure you’ll notice as you use the improved Manage Registrants tool, but these are the big highlights.

We’ve got a lot of great plans for the future, so stay tuned for our exciting upcoming updates!
