Church Metrics gives you some pre-generated categories but sometimes you might want to add some categories that are unique to your church. You can create as many categories as you would like.
From the profile dropdown in the top right corner, select Admin. Then click Categories in the left hand navigation.
Click New Category.
Format your category.
Name: Name your custom category
Format: There are 3 formatting options.
Number- This is used for whole numbers like attendance, salvations, and volunteers
Currency- This is used for your giving categories. This will add the currency symbol to the number.
Decimal- This is used for numbers that would need a decimal but are not necessarily currency.
Kind: There are 4 different options to choose from- Attendance, Contributions, Salvations, and Other
Be sure to click Save when you're finished!
