Group rotas

Plan who serves in which role on a given date, reuse last week's rota, and email the people on it.

A rota (sometimes called a roster) lists who is doing what on a particular date: who is leading worship, on sound, or welcoming at the door. Each group has its own rotas.

Create a rota

  1. Go to People > Groups, open the group and choose the Rota tab.
  2. Select Add New Rota.
  3. Give it a name (for example “Sunday 2 November”) and a date.
  4. Add each Role, such as “Worship leader”, and assign one or more members of the group to it. Select Add Role for the next one.
  5. Select Save New Rota.
