- Long Description:
- -----------------
-
- TROOP TRACKER is a menu driven program which stores valuable
- information on the Scouts and Scouters of a Troop and presents that
- information in various reports of use to the Troop during its operation.
-
- Before any reports can be produced from the TROOP TRACKER program,
- the user must give TROOP TRACKER certain data to process. This input
- process starts by adding records to a troop roster. It is continued by
- updating individual Scout or Scouter records with the details of
- Advancement progression, Merit Badges earned, Troop and Patrol Offices
- served, and information on any/all Training received. The process
- continues by the addition of troop meeting Attendance for all troop
- meetings held and relevant details from all Troop and Patrol Activities.
- Once this data has been entered, it may be viewed or edited from the
- main menu.
-
- Depending upon the amount of data provided to TROOP TRACKER, the
- program will generate Scout and Scouter rosters as well as a roster of
- Former Troop members; a Troop Call Sheet with the home and office tele-
- phone numbers for parents or Scouters; three different types of mailing
- labels; an individual record for each Scout or Scouter; an evaluation of
- how each Scout stands in regard to the quantifiable requirements for
- advancement to his next Advancement Level; an evaluation of a Scout or
- Scouter's eligibility to join the Order of the Arrow; and an attendance
- summary for all Scouts.
-
- TROOP TRACKER requires 300K RAM and a hard disk system. The number of
- Scouts/Scouters which the system can track is limited only by the amount
- of storage medium; systemically, TROOP TRACKER is designed to accommodate
-
