SERVICES & VOLUNTEERS

Sunday is a deadline. Plan like it.

The plan, the songs, the files, and the people — one screen, live for everyone. When the drummer declines on Thursday night, the slot reopens with ranked replacement suggestions instead of a panicked group text.

CORE CAPABILITIES

From setlist to schedule without a spreadsheet

An order of service that adds up

Plans are built from items — songs, announcements, sermon, transitions — each with a length, an owner, notes, and attachments. Lengths sum to a running time with an overrun warning before you're cutting the last song live. Two staff can edit the same plan at once and both see changes as they happen; nobody's edits get clobbered.

  • Running time with overrun warnings
  • Clone last week or start from a service-type template
  • Live collaborative editing, safe under concurrency

A song library your team can actually rehearse from

Songs carry CCLI numbers, default keys, tempo, and lyrics; arrangements carry their own sequence, key, and BPM. A plan item references a specific arrangement and can transpose per service without touching the original. Charts, MP3s, and click tracks attach to songs and stream in the app — and every plan use writes a CCLI usage record for your license report.

  • Arrangements with per-service key transposition
  • Charts and rehearsal audio attached and streamable
  • CCLI reporting generated from real plan usage

Scheduling that survives the decline

Teams hold positions; positions get people; every assignment tracks unconfirmed, confirmed, or declined. Volunteers respond from a link or the portal, mark block-out dates in advance, and get automatic reminders. A decline flips the slot to open, notifies the scheduler, and offers ranked replacements — qualified, available, and not over-scheduled.

  • Block-out dates the scheduler can't miss
  • Decline → reopen → ranked replacement suggestions
  • Conflict detection stops double-booking across teams

The supporting cast

Block-Out Dates

Volunteers mark unavailable dates once; every scheduler sees the warning before assigning.

Auto-Reminders

Configurable email and SMS reminders before the service, so nobody discovers their assignment Sunday at 7 AM.

Bulk Scheduling

Schedule a team for a month with per-week rotation that respects block-outs and spread.

Rehearsal Files

Stems, clicks, and charts attach to songs and arrangements, streamable by the team all week.

CCLI Reporting

Every plan use logs the song and CCLI number; the report for your license period is one export.

Plan History

See what you played and who served across past services — useful for rotation and for January retrospectives.

FAQ

Common questions

The position reopens immediately, the scheduler is notified, and SundayHQ suggests ranked replacements — people qualified for the position, not blocked out that date, and not already over-scheduled. One tap sends the invitation.

Yes. Plan editing is live and multi-user: reorder items, change lengths, and edit notes concurrently, and everyone's screen updates without lost edits.

A plan item references an arrangement and can set a per-service key. The chord display transposes for that service without mutating the stored arrangement, so next week starts from the default again.

No. Volunteers respond to assignments from an email or SMS link, or from the member portal, where they can also set block-out dates and see their upcoming schedule.

Yes — service types template their own positions and default order, and plans are campus-scoped with org-wide rollups, sharing one song library.
