The following Beacon menu selections are usually only available to the Site Administrator.
The settings within these areas establish the working environment of Beacon for your U3A, and until your site has been set up no other members should be given access.
The configuration of these sections is crucial to the success of your U3A’s use of Beacon. If ever you have any doubts or queries please consult your Beacon Supporter.
Further information can be found in the Beacon Live Site ‘What To Do Now’ document that was sent to your Site Administrator when your site was created.
Once set up, most options won’t need to be changed unless any of your working methods change, although all will need to be confirmed for a new system installation.
Note:
There are some configuration options for your system that can only be changed by the Beacon Support Team. These options include the starting date for the Financial and Membership years, PayPal enablement, Custom membership fields and terminology aliases for Groups and Group Leaders.
There is information on the Site Record at the end of this article Demo System Getting Started
