How the Quick Update popup works

The Quick Update Popup lets you create a story about a single metric (i.e. indicator or progress tracker).

 

You can either post a Quick Update from the Homepage or from a Progress Board.

  • Add an attachment

  • Add a location - using Google Address Lookup

Select Project

When viewing an Album Card, you can select any one of the projects within the album, as long as the project uses this Progress Tracker.

Total progress logged in the story

This is the sum of the progress from tagged contacts and the anonymous progress

Anonymous Progress 

Enter the amount of anonymous progress that you want to log towards this Progress Tracker. E.g. the number of attendees whose names are not in your database as project contacts.

Categorise the Anonymous Progress 

Optionally disaggregate the anonymous progress number according to characteristics, e.g. demographic fields such as Age Range, Gender, Ethnicity, etc.
