The season on one dashboard
The dashboard follows the Masonic year: attendance rate, papers presented, meetings held, dues paid. The next meeting appears with the state of its summons, the brethren's intentions and its agape; a “To follow up” panel lists summonses to send, minutes to write or adopt, and pending dues.
The Statistics views extend that view: meeting rhythm, attendance by degree, brethren who have not yet presented a paper, membership movements.
Preparing the year with the officers
Annual planning rolls out the lodge's cadence, avoids public holidays and places the St John's festivals. The officers review the proposals, then publish the meetings, which stay hidden from the brethren until they are made visible. A paper outline can be sent to the brother due to speak.
Leading admissions
For each candidate, the Worshipful Master appoints the investigating brethren. Together with the administrators, he alone reads every report: each investigator sees only his own, and the other officers follow only the progress of the investigations. At the decision, each investigation is sealed.
The officers and their access
Holding an office grants no access by itself: Sodalis suggests a role from the office — administrator for the Worshipful Master, officer for the other offices — which an administrator applies or not. The Master thus keeps control over who enters the management area.
Visit requests from brethren of other lodges can be addressed to him by e-mail, and he replies directly. If he is prevented on a meeting night, the minutes name the brother who presided in his stead and provide for his signature.
