Hi
Has anyone gone through the process of customizing TNEW for registrations of children's camps and programs? We have an aggressive goal to achieve 4000 camp registrations and we are looking at customizing TNEW for a seamless process. For starters my initial questions would be Who did your customizations? What were the timelines from beginning to go live? What was the overall cost?
I appreciate any information you can provide.
Thanks

Hi Michelle,
We use the auxiliary forms as well, capture the information as a CSI (that works better for our consortium so that different organizations can ask subsets of all questions for the form, but a stored procedure would work too), and then we have a background script that parses the info from the CSI and puts it in the appropriate places on the child's and patron's records.
I participated in a session on this subject at TLCC this past summer, so you might want to search the Conference archives for different approaches. The customizations for this type of thing run the gamut, and you can keep it fairly simple all the way to having TNEW build something for you.
Good luck!
