Goals for Quick Name Review, Etc.

One of the incentives volunteers have is to set goals for the work they do. Under the old Indexing System we were able to set goals, keep track, and see our progress. Although those stats have been retained, there are no goal-setting tools when doing Quick Name Review as well as the other categories under Opportunities. Are there any plans to establish a goal setting/tracking function in the future. It would make my participation much more meaningful. Gary Millward, Mesa Arizona Salt River Stake.

    Thanks for your response. A couple of other things. 1) How long are the reports for current activities going be shown as "Beta?" Seems like it's been forever under that heading. I use those numbers to make monthly reports to my stake/ward leaders. 2) In addition I notice that when I used to do Quick Name Review the number of records I did cut off at 20 and I could start over selecting 20 or more going forward. Today I noticed that there was no cut off…the records just kept going on and on without stopping. I finally just exited out and my totals updated correctly. Just wondering if this is a glitch of some kind.

    When you finish a batch of names in Quick Name review, a popup comes up that asks if you want to do more names. You can choose from 20, 30, 50, or no limit. My guess is that at some point you clicked on "no limit." Because this popup comes after you finish a batch, and unlimited names won't ever finish, I'm not sure how you will be able to change this. I will check with the engineers. In the meantime, just exit out when you're feeling ready. The names you've done will be saved.

    Here's what the popup looks like:
