The Volunteer Roles page in Account Management keeps track of the activities your volunteers participate in along with the time they give. New in ENTERPRISE v9, you can also track the Number of Volunteers. This is helpful for volunteer groups organized by a leader or company where you don't have all of the individuals' names or want to associate the total hours with the organizer.

Volunteer Reporting
The new report in v9215 reports accounts with Volunteer Roles, grouping by the Volunteer Role. You can opt to include the Address, Phone, Email and Gift history.

NETQuery Output
You can also see the new Number of Hours in your NETQuery output. When you have Volunteer Criteria in the query, choose the Volunteer Output View. Add the Volunteer Details to the output columns to display. Your output will contain separate columns for the Volunteer Role, Code, Start Date, End Date, Number of Hours, Number of Volunteers, Frequency, Frequency Code, and Status.

Let us take something off your plate, assist your outsourced IT team, or fill the gap from the ENTERPRISE expert who recently left. We can upgrade your ENTERPRISE database to v9 as part of our additional support services.
Contact us now to learn more and schedule your upgrade.

Download the ENTERPRISE Release Notes to learn about its new features, and share them with your ENTERPRISE team.
Here are a few things you need to know before you upgrade:

1. Contact us when you're ready to download the v9 files. Your site's main contact will be able to download the files from the Support Center.
2. Finish all of your in-progress Gift Acquisitions before upgrading from v8.10.1.1 or earlier versions. If you don't finish them first, you'll have to restart in-progress acquisitions after the upgrade. This is because we made some changes to the Gift Acquisition Data Verification and Load Data steps.
3. Your upgrade scripts could take much longer to run if you do not regularly delete your completed acquisitions. Read more about this on the Advisories page of the Release Notes.

Don't forget to do a full database backup before you begin your upgrade.
