Member List Report
This article provides information about and steps to run the Member List report.
The Member List report allows you to obtain a wide range of information from the system about your Directory members. The report results list members that match the filter criteria you set.
There is a variety of filters available to help you find the specific members / information you need, and the flexible interface allows you to show and hide the filters you want to use. For example, you can use filters to find all active members with a wedding anniversary or birthday in a particular month, or find all members within a specific age range or grade, so you can contact families whose children are eligible for sacraments.
The system remembers and saves your filter criteria settings each time you run the report, but you can update the filters at any time. The report has summary and detail output versions, and you can download the results as a pdf, csv, or excel file. Member custom fields information is included in the report, but it is displayed only in the CSV download.
