Find who is not linked

Open People → Records. At the bottom of the list a line says how many records don’t have a linked MiaChiesa account yet, with the Invite all by email button. The Not connected quick filter shows only these records.

Fig. 1The count shows the records still without an account.

Choose who to invite

Select Invite all by email: Invite by email opens. Under To invite every invitable person is already ticked; untick anyone you don’t want to invite, or use Deselect all.

Under Excluded you find who cannot be invited, with the reason: No email, Minor, Already linked or Already invited.

Send the invites

Press the send button, for example Send 2 invites: the confirmation 2 invites sent appears. Each person receives an email with the link to create an account; when they accept, the account is linked to their record.

The Invited quick filter shows who has a pending invite.

Invite a single person

Open the person’s record: in the Account owner box select Link owner. The Link the owner account dialog shows the address the email will go to; press Send invite: Invite sent to followed by the name appears.

If the record has no email the button stays disabled: add the address to the person’s details first.

What you have achieved

  • Invited people receive an email with the link to create an account.
  • Whoever accepts finds their record already linked to the account.

Troubleshooting

I see “No invitable records found…”

No record qualifies: add an email to the records of the adults you want to invite, then reopen the dialog.

I see “Error sending invites”

The invites were not confirmed: try again shortly.

Why can’t I invite a minor?

Minors’ records are linked to a parent’s or guardian’s account, not to an account of their own.
