How to delete a role/agenda item in the internal listing of roles

This is the problem. I would restrict all access, set up the template you want, put the VPE in charge and not let anyone have agenda edit access until they understand how the system works. This includes removing agenda edit access to roles if a newer member signs up for it.

Key downsides of multiple names for the same role is the role reports and the 'assign role' drop down will be a train wreck. On the other hand, if you delete 37 stray instances of Ah/Gram, those members will lose their role participation history in your FTH site. FTH provides a way to deal with this; Role / Agenda Item synonyms. See this document;



You might want to set up the synonyms rather than delete the stray role histories so members can retain their participation history. (after fixing the root cause of the problem and establishing a master agenda so you don't have to continually deal with the issue and add to the role synonyms.)

What is your club number? We may be able to provide more specific pointers once we can study what is actually happening in your agendas.

• I created synonyms
• I went to the Roles/Agenda Item Title typed in a role, and I still saw all the synonyms in the dropdown.
• Then I saw in the fine print that it will only be "seen in reports".
