I’ve found that this has been asked before, however, it’s usually expensive apps that were the result. Those threads were older so I am hoping something has changed.
Here is what I am looking to accomplish. We will be storing some volunteer records, such as policies they have signed and some other documents. Nothing sensitive as we store that elsewhere.
Each volunteer has their own board and each item is the document or policy they have signed. This allows us to view a volunteer and see what policies they have signed and which ones they have not. There are approximately 50 volunteers and several dozen policies. I went with the separate boards for each volunteer just to keep those numbers manageable and it also allows that volunteer to view their board.
The part that I am concerned about is what happens when a new volunteer is added or a new policy is added. The volunteer part should be easy as we can just create a template or employ another method to create that board.
My concern is when a new policy comes down. So, each volunteer has a board and that board has a list of all policies. Then the organization decides it needs to add a new policy. I can create that as an item in a master layout but how would I then have that item created in all of the existing volunteer boards. It would be easy to do it for future volunteers but how can I create an item in one board and have that same item added to all of the other current boards? Additionally, this item would work separately in that when one volunteer signs a document, I don’t want that change to propagate to all of the other boards.
I apologize for the long post but wanted to paint the picture of what I need to accomplish. Any thoughts and suggestions are greatly appreciated!
