Windows App

Free Trial Subscribe/Renew Download Windows App
The Windows App runs on a Windows computer or within a virtual environment running a Windows OS. In addition to the basic recordkeeping tasks, it enables secretaries to efficiently handle fees and payments, track inventory and orders, analyze data using the powerful grids, and run formal reports.
This video will show you most of the Windows App’s features by going through main menu options and through each module. Besides learning about many of its features, you will also see an example of its powerful grid manipulations.

Features

Households.

Grouping members by families eliminates redundant data entry and makes it easy to work with all persons in a household. Changing contact information for one family member changes all household members simultaneously.
Reports.

Preview, print or export customized reports by specifying selection criteria and selecting sorting and grouping options. Besides the wide range of formatted reports such as nametags, mailing labels, birthdays, handbook status, attendance, awards, visitors, etc., you can generate ad hoc reports via grids and export data to a variety of external file formats such as Excel, RTF, HTML, XHTML, and PDF.
Inventory.

Now you can always know how much inventory you have in stock and what needs to be ordered! As books, awards and uniforms are assigned to clubbers, the inventory counts for those items are reduced. If an item is low, according to your settings, you can easily identify it and add it to an order. Once an order is received, the inventory counts for those items are increased.
Grids.

Unlike data on paper, you can now quickly and easily manipulate and analyze your data by sorting, filtering, grouping, printing, and exporting it using one of the many powerful grids in the Windows App. You will no longer have trouble answering questions like how many clubbers are there on each team, and are the grades and genders divided evenly; who has not said sections or attended in a while; who did not receive their awards yet; who has not paid; etc.
Points.

Having team winners and individual challenges is part of the fun at Awana! As you mark attendance and handbook sections, customized point values are awarded to clubbers and totals are calculated automatically. As clubbers use their points for prizes, you just enter how many points are spent and their total is adjusted accordingly.
Fees.

Keeping track of your club's financial records will be a breeze. As clubbers register and books and uniforms are assigned, fees can be automatically created according to your settings. You can generate invoices to give to parents that have outstanding balances. As payments are made, you can mark fees as paid so that balances are adjusted. If your church gives scholarships or discounts, you can track those too!
Customization.

We know there are many different ways to run an Awana club, so we give you the ability to customize the database to fit your needs and style. To name a few: selecting drop down list values, creating additional check-in categories, setting point values, determining attendance awards, saving grid layouts, editing the text for registration forms, choosing inventory and ordering options, and personalizing the interface tab positions and color.

What People Are Saying.

  • So far I'm loving this new application. It is so easy to use (when our internet at Church is working properly), and I can access it anywhere. I LOVE IT!!! Thanks for working so hard to make it awesome!

    Patricia, Bartlett, IL

  • It is so easy to add Clubbers, register them, assign books. I was concerned about how several clubbers from one family would be linked to one household, but you thought of that too!! The support and quick response has been amazing.

    Trish, Knoxville, TN

  • I can not thank you enough for creating this for Awana clubs to use! I have had many complements on how much they love this better than the old version and so much more than Mozo. I look forward to using the program each week!

    Rachael, Eustis, FL

  • Loving all the online recordkeeping! My leaders are really liking the app!

Forum

The AWdb Forum is a great resource for information on the Windows App. There are answers to Frequently Asked Questions, tips, training videos, as well as places to ask questions and share information with a community of other AWdb users. Note: Many, but not all, of the posts for the Legacy Database will apply to the Windows App.

User Guide

You can view the AWdb Windows App User Guide in two different ways:

  • The PDF version of the User Guide is suitable for printing, but is over 300 pages so you may want to read it on-screen and only print select pages as needed. One advantage of reading on-screen is that you can use the hyperlinks within the document. If you want to download and save a copy of the PDF version, right-click the link above and select "Save target as.." and then select the folder where you want to save the file.

  • The online/HTML version has the familiar left pane navigation tool which makes it easy to expand and collapse topics and get the big-picture view of the document. You can also use the hyperlinks to jump from one topic to another quickly.

Freshdesk

You can find answers to your questions about AWdb by looking in the Freshdesk knowledge base. There are articles and videos to help you get started or learn more about advanced features. You can also create enhancement requests, report defects or view your existing ticket status from within the Freshdesk portal.

If you're experiencing a connection issue with the app, you can check to see if we are aware of the problem by visiting our status page. This is also where you can view information about previous outages or performance issues we've experienced.
