Disability Field on Complete Report
I had a question from MaryAnn in Webster County, and it caused me to re-think what I THOUGHT was true. Turns out I was wrong--how amazing is that?
The question dealt with the disability field on the member record. I've encouraged you to use that to record info that would be useful info for leaders & others to know, not just limiting it to identified disabilities. I thought that info did not print on any reports unless you asked for a disability report format.
However, what we found is that the info DOES print on the "complete report" format as well. And it prints whether or not the Disability checkbox is marked. The info in the text box prints next to a header of "special needs". I guess it makes sense that the info would be included on the "complete report", but in some cases, you may not want that viewed.
If it's sensitive info that you do not want in print, but do want on the youth's record, we only have one option at the present time: When you print the report, you will need to locate the page with that young person's information, white-out the section, and run it through your copy machine. No, that is not ideal, or techno-savvy, or anything else. It's just all we've got right now. Someday, there may be another solution, but not now.
