Campuses

ℹ️

Dedicated campus management UI is planned for a future release. Currently, campus is available as a filter field in the Relationship Graph and as a data attribute on member records, but there is no dedicated campus configuration page.

Current Campus Support​

Mission's data model includes campus as a field on member records and as a filter in the Relationship Graph. You can:

  • Assign a campus to member records (via the custom_fields or tags mechanism)
  • Filter the Relationship Graph by campus to see connections within a specific location
  • Use campus-based tags to segment members for targeted communications

Multi-Campus Workaround​

Until dedicated campus management is built, multi-campus organizations can use these patterns:

Using Tags​

Add a tag to each member record indicating their home campus:

  • campus:downtown
  • campus:north-campus
  • campus:online

This enables:

  • Filtering the members list by campus tag
  • Sending targeted communications to a campus using tag-based recipient filtering
  • Grouping the Relationship Graph by campus

Using Groups​

Create a group for each campus (e.g., "Downtown Campus", "North Campus"). Assign all members of that campus to their campus group. This:

  • Enables the Relationship Graph campus filter
  • Lets you manage campus-specific group leaders
  • Gives campus-level attendance and communication tools

Separate Organizations​

For campuses that operate largely independently (separate giving, separate staff, separate reporting), consider creating a separate Mission organization for each campus. Organizations are isolated with separate databases, staff users, and reporting. The trade-off is no cross-campus reporting — each campus has its own dashboard.

What's Coming​

Planned campus management features include:

  • Campus creation and configuration page
  • Campus assignment to members, groups, and events from a native campus field
  • Attendance reporting by campus
  • Campus administrator role with scoped access
  • Cross-campus reporting dashboard for multi-campus organizations
