Birthday & Anniversary Lists
Need a list of everyone with a birthday or anniversary in a given month — for the bulletin, announcements, or cards? The People search can filter your congregation by Birth Month and Anniversary Month and show the dates right in the results.
Before You Begin
- Ensure birth dates (and anniversaries) are entered on each person's profile. See Adding People.
- You need permission to view People. See Roles & Permissions.
Getting a Birthday List for a Month
- Open the section menu in the top-left corner and choose People.
- Under the search box, click Advanced.
- Expand the Demographics section and check Birth Month, then choose the month.
- Run the search — everyone with a birthday that month appears in the results.
- To see the dates, click the columns icon at the top right of the results and enable the Birthday column. Use Export to download the list as a spreadsheet if you prefer to sort or print it there.
Getting an Anniversary List
Same steps — in the Demographics section, check Anniversary Month instead (or as well), choose the month, and enable the Anniversary column in the results.
Practical Uses
- Weekly bulletins -- Run the current month's list and read the names straight into the bulletin.
- Birthday & anniversary cards -- Export the month's list and hand it to your card-writing team.
- Milestones -- Combine with the Age filter to find milestone birthdays.
поради
Both lists come from the birth date and anniversary fields on each person's profile — if someone's missing, their profile just needs the date added.
інформація
Earlier versions of B1 Admin had a separate Reports page for birthdays. That page has been retired — the People search filters above are the current way, and they cover anniversaries too.
