How do I create an event listing that supports leaders from outside my state/affiliate?
When it comes to collaborating with other state/affiliate leaders, the best way to create listings and report on those listings with leaders from outside of the same state/affiliate, is for the hosting affiliate to work with their state org to create an event listing through the states virtual affiliate.
Step 1:
Add Collaborating Program Leaders
In order to add all leaders, you will need to work directly with the leader's current state/affiliate in order to add a "local" record to each leader in NAMI 360 for the hosting states virtual affiliate (this can be done by following these steps). After the leader records are added, the hosting state will be able to then select from those leaders in the dropdown list for the virtual affiliate listing within NAMI 720.
Step 2:
Create a State Virtual Affiliate Event Listing in NAMI 720
The state org of the hosting affiliate will be able to add the event listing to the virtual affiliate by following these steps and selecting the NAMI Virtual Affiliate. With their permissions, and the records already being added to the participating program leaders, state org leadership will be able to then select all collaborating leaders for the listing under the virtual affiliate.
Please Note: With the current structure of our system, creating events in this way will have the listing, and any reported data, fall under the states Virtual Affiliate.
While you are able to list leaders from multiple affiliates, it restricts the ability for the affiliate to utilize the data. Data will not appear within the affiliate's dashboard for these listings, and the NAMI State Org would need to provide the affiliate any relevant data for these listings so they can track it themselves.
