Released November 17, 2009
Dear OA LodgeMaster Users,
The OA LodgeMaster team is happy to announce the release of the OA LodgeMaster online portal! The portal allows users to query membership data, create custom PDF reports and excel exports, and more!
The portal is a great way to give access to more users without having more users downloading and installing the desktop client. We'll be adding more functionality soon, including the ability to email selected members and pre-formed reports.
Go to https://lodgemaster.oa-bsa.org/portal/ to login and start using the portal. As always, if you have questions or problems, please submit a request online (http://support.oalodgemaster.org).
Yours in Brotherhood,
The OA LodgeMaster Team
Mike (C.), Mike (G.), Mike (P.), Rob (A.), Rob (R.), and Scott (J.)
What's Next In The Development Of OA LodgeMaster?
For the desktop client, we're working a bug-fix release currently which will close the 30 open bugs which have been reported by users. After the bug-fix release is out, we'll be working on adding a few major enhancements to the desktop program: member modification tracking, a ceremonies manager, and local network sharing between desktop clients.
For the online portal, we're working on a couple immediate enhancements: emailing selected members and pre-formed reports. We're also working on moving the desktop download functionality into the online portal to minimize the number of logins.
What If I Have Questions?
Please submit a ticket on the help desk if you have any questions - this will allow each of the team members to respond as they have time - instead of sending all questions to one member of the development team. You can submit a ticket online (http://support.oalodgemaster.org) or via email at support@oalodgemaster.org.
