End Processing Info – Youth Enrollment
What
to do with the project files during the roll over of data for 2009
- When you go to reset the project files for 2009 make sure that
you do not to use the Utility to delete the Member Project file,
but use the Empty Table option instead when you reset your files
for 2007? This will prevent you from having a problem
with your project files next year.
Basic
steps for Year-End processing County Youth Data Files.
1.
Backup your data first. Go into Windows Explorer
or however you do a backup and save your data. If you are unsure
of how to make a backup copy of your data, contact you state support
staff member.
2.
Delete all the inactives. If you
don't want them in for more than one year, otherwise you won't know
which members became inactive in 2009, and which were previously
marked inactive. Retaining large numbers of inactive records
will slow the performance of your program.
To
Delete Inactives: Go to Utilities|File Utilities|Utilities|Delete
Inactives – then
choose
those member category(s) you wish to delete
3.
Do year-end processing by going to Utility|Process Year-End
Files .
Year-end
processing does the following:
a.
Set each member and leader Inactive . The categories of
Alumni and Other remain active.
b.
Increments the Age of each record by one year.
c.
Increments the Grade of members and cloverbuds by one grade.
d.
Increments the Year in 4-H of all members and leaders by
one year.
e.
Sets all member/leader projects Inactive (optional).
f.
Sets the Fees Paid field to false.
g.
Deletes all records in the Training Log, Group Volunteer Enrollment
, and Youth Group Enrollment files.
Note:
If Year-End Processing does not finish cleanly, NEVER run it again
without restoring the original data files. If Year-End Processing
is run twice in a row, grade, age, and year in 4-H will be incremented
twice.

4.
Update Master County file under File|County Information
. Change the 4H Age Calculation Date to add 1 year, i.e.
if it says 1/1/2008 change to 1/1/2009 (or whenever your year starts).
5.
Go to Utility|Preferences and increase the Activity/Award
Year by 1, i.e. from 2008 to 2009 under the Default Member
Entry tab .
6.
( Optional – at State's Discretion ) If
your state has a new project file that
you need to add you can copy and paste that in from them into your
data file folder. Then go into the Youth Program to recreate the
indexes on the Youth2c.db file. Go Utilities|File Utilities.
highlightingYouth2c.db and go to File|Recreate
Indexes .
