How to enter my exchange 2008
The objective is to monitor and capture all your exchanges in 2008, without making too many duplicates.
- Download your Excel sheet exchange of SELduLac located in the Docs site "Leaves of exchange members of ... 23/06/08 "
- Print it for future reference when writing your discussions on the site.
- Exchange 2008 in pencil and cross out the exchange already recorded on the sheet Excel exchanges that you just printed.
- Then in the "Members" of the site, click on your name, then click on "My Exchange". You have the list of trades already entered for the online site. Trade with a green light in the Status column are recorded and can not be changed. (Duplicates? See below). Trade with amber may be modified or deleted as appropriate to your entry.
- Once you have checked and deleted the exchange already entered on the Excel sheet and the site, you are ready to seize new trade.
- Click "Enter Exchange" under your name at the top right, and within minutes you have entered all your trading! Please describe your interaction in 4 words minimum please for they are in the right category more.
Gather your leaves
Duplicates?
First try to "remove" the exchange in question. Otherwise, you can enter an exchange of "correction" (with the same person but the seeds are in the opposite direction). Put in the description: "correction of the exchange" X "" X "." That's it.
I took all the leaves exchange received before June 15 of the person who sent the leaves, but the exchange does not necessarily have been seized from the person who did not send his paper (for the same exchange). This can be difficult to grant the parties. To you to be flexible and understanding.
If you do not have copies of your exchange leaves sent to me since June 15, I refer you happy.
Courage, making this work, consider the accounting grains did it for years to 100 members. ;)
How to Enter
Exchange
Click on the link "Enter Exchange" under your name at the top right.
You can also go to the account of a member and use the form on the left.
that captures the exchange site
Usually the person who will make the grain, or by arrangement. What is important is that you control your communications "to confirm" before entering a new exchange, to avoid duplicates. As your partner have not confirmed the exchange, you can edit or delete it.
What if the partner has not confirmed the exchange
First, to show a little patience. Some people check their emails once a week. Others may be on vacation or absent for long periods. After a while, you can restart the phone, or possibly by email.
How to register a trade with SELdulac? (Account 100)
In choosing the 100 as a partner in the exchange. An e-member committee will confirm the exchange later. Examples: the work of the festival committee and other tasks for the association.
Do I change already entered an exchange
Yes, if your partner in the exchange has not yet confirmed the exchange. You can even delete it.
What if the exchange is not accepted for reasons of balance (limit of + / -500 grains)
The principle is that each control the balance of the other before entering an important exchange. The treasurer may authorize grain exceeded for a maximum of 30 days.
What does the column "Status"
"Green" is a confirmed exchange
"Orange" is an exchange that awaits confirmation of your partner
"Red" means that the exchange entered into mediation
What if
exchange duplicates?
If the exchange has not yet been confirmed, the person who took the exchange can remove it.
If the exchange is confirmed, you can enter an exchange of "correction" (with the same number of grains in the opposite direction with the same person). Put in the description: "correction of the exchange" X "" X "." So the two cancel each other exchanges.
Contributions
What is a contribution
The assumption that if each member contributes to the association, there is less need-tax (Contributions SELidaire), we display in the "Contributions" from the site helping hand to the operation of SEL. Do you volunteer for these tasks by contacting the person in the right column. You will be credited with a point "Contributions" for each task accomplished.
