What is a Family View?

A Family View in RakefetOnline allows you to filter and display groups of families or individuals based on specific criteria within your database.

The system includes several built-in views to help you quickly find and manage your data:

  • All Families – Displays every family in your database
  • Families with Accounts – Shows families with an active financial account
  • Families with Membership – Displays families with active membership and account status
  • Adults – Lists all adult individuals
  • Children – Lists all child individuals
  • Adults + Children – Displays all individuals together
  • Children in School – Shows children assigned to classes or school programs

How Family Views Work

You can switch between views by selecting different Filters. Each filter will:

  • Display a count of families or individuals in that view
  • Adjust available filter options based on relevance

How Family Codes Affect Views

Family Views are driven by Family Code assignments, which determine where families appear:

  • All Families
    Includes every family in the database, regardless of status
  • Families with Accounts
    Includes families assigned a Family Code with an account status, allowing financial transactions
  • Families with Membership
    Includes families with both a membership status and account status, indicating active involvement in your congregation

Why Family Views Matter

Family Views help your staff:

  • Quickly locate specific groups of families or individuals
  • Manage memberships and accounts more efficiently
  • Streamline reporting and daily operations
