OA LodgeMaster Users,
The OA LodgeMaster Team is excited to announce the immediate release of version 4.1.0! We fixed 15 bugs, made 1 improvement, and added 1 new feature – the 2018 Charter & JTE forms. Notable bug fixes include BSA Audit import errors, add position error in Lodge Structure, and report improvements for archived members. Improvements include a new Vital Statistics report which allows numbers to be run just for youth.
We’ll be adding one additional Charter & JTE report like past worksheet reports that will let you see detailed numbers from past submissions - that report will be available online in the next couple days.
There were 3 small bugs with the 4.1.0 release that we’ve fixed already before we were able to get the release announcement out, so we’ve also released version 4.1.1 and those bugs are included in the list below.
Go to https://lodgemaster.oa-bsa.org/ to access the online system, and if needed, download the offline version. As always, if you have questions or problems, please submit a request online (http://docs.oa-bsa.org/display/OALMLC).
Yours in Brotherhood,
The OA LodgeMaster Team,
Chadd, Mike, Rob, and Mike

LodgeMaster 4.1 Update Scheduled
On Wednesday, October 3, 2018 the LodgeMaster team will be updating both the online and offline Lodge Client to version 4.1. Users should expect downtime on Wednesday afternoon while we perform the upgrade. We expect the upgrade to take between 90 and 120 minutes. In version 4.1 we have made database changes that require you to re-download the offline database. Please read the Offline Client Update Instructions below if you use the offline Lodge Client.
Offline Client Update Instructions
Offline Lodge Client users will need to sync before running the offline 4.1 installer. You will receive a warning message in the installer reminding you to sync before installing, this is very important, and you should make sure you have synced any changes before upgrading. Once you install and run version 4.1 your local database will be cleared and then update with the new database structure and your lodge data will be downloaded again. Please let all of your users know this important note.
