Reusable Signup Sheet Templates, the key to OnlineSignupSheet.com!

OnlineSignupSheet.com is dedicated to managing small group logistics for groups which meet consistently. And, when meeting consistently, you usually have the same kind of signups, maybe some food items, maybe some dessert items, maybe some donation items... each group is unique, and OnlineSignupSheet.com is designed to handle all kinds of sign up sheets.

Signup Sheet Template information

Other online signup tools want you to recreate the items for which you want your group members to signup for every event. OnlineSignupSheet.com removes this hassle with the use of reusable Signup Sheet Templates.

Before you create your event, you first create a Signup Sheet Template which will later be "associated" to your event. Let's walk through the creation of a Signup Sheet Template. Once you are on the new Signup Sheet Template page from the leader site, create a descriptive name and description for your template so you can find it later. As most events using this template will have a consistent intent for children, you can also set the childcare attendance type here: children can participate, have childcare provided, or are not allowed.

Signup Sheet Template Categories

Then, you begin to create your signup sheet. You can group your signup items in categories, this just gives them a distinctive section on the actual member signup sheet. We've created three categories, one for Hosts, one for Food, and one for Donations. Note that for the Hosts, we've checked both the Mutually Exclusive and the Show Address. We only want one family to host children, and one family to host the adults, not the same family to signup to do both. So, this is how you tell OnlineSignupSheet.com that you only want one family to signup for an item in a category. As this is hosting, we also want the family who signed up to host to have their address visible on the actual signup sheet.

Host Checkbox Signup Sheet Items

Next, we will add signup sheet items to the categories. First for the Hosts. As stated, we want both an adult host and a childcare host. We will use "Checkbox" Signup Sheet Items. These will just display a checkbox upon which members can click to signup for that item.

Our Food signups will be similar, with as many checkboxes and we want families to bring food.

Quantity Signup Sheet Items

Finally, we'll add our donations. We want to donate to our local food bank, so they are looking for canned goods. We've asked our group to provide 100 canned goods. For this, we are going to use a "Quantity Signup Sheet Item. With this kind of signup item, you can specify how many and in what quantity. Each family should be able to bring a minimum of 5 items, but they can bring any multiples of 5 up to 100 items.

That's it. Here's what the member signup sheet will look like once your members begin to signup for the event you created with this Signup Sheet Template:
