MERITS4U(tm) Product Overview, Users License and Developer's Support
PRODUCT OVERVIEW:
Merits4U Developer's Copy includes a Demo-data feature that allows you to see how the software works before entering your own data. You can use the demo-data system interchangeably with your real data. The two systems are completely separate and only one system can be active at a time. Switch between Demo and Real by checking the option on the opening window.
WHEN USING DEMO-DATA you will see Message:
"YOU ARE USING DEMO DATA - DEMO-DATA HAS BEEN LOADED
DEMO DATES HAVE BEEN SET TO CURRENT MONTH AND YEAR
To get an idea of what Merit Scores will tell you Click on MERIT REPORTS, Select MERIT GROUP then, Choose MONTHLY
"DEMO DATA" Will also be in the title bar of menus
OTHERWISE, your start-up message will read:
"YOU ARE USING YOUR OWN DATA - YOUR DATA HAS BEEN LOADED
ALL DEMO DATA HAS BEEN REMOVED"
NO DEMO-Data or REAL-Data is deleted during changeover.
Demo-Data dates are always updated to current month for demo.
QUICK START
Step 1: Create MERIT GROUPS Or CATEGORIES. Your Merit Group(s) will include Workers, Family, Friends, etc.
Start at the Photo Profile Screen and "Add Merit Groups"
Step 2: Assign Merit Points to activities that "Aid" the Group and dMerit Points to prohibited activities.
Step 3: Develop Merit Rewards to offer as incentives for Group Members that reach the required score.
Step 4: Use MERITS4U(tm) Software to document & track group member Performance by day, week or month.
Step 5: Share the program with your Group Members to increase competition for earning Merit Points and Rewards.
=============================================================================
MERITS4U(tm): THE RULES
MERITS & dMERITS
1. A Merit Activity is one that helps the Group but is not part of the Group Member's normal Job.
2. A Merit Activity is scored based on one point per hour and the maximum points for one Merit activity is 10.
3. A job Description Task that is left un-done is a dMerit.
4. All prohibited activities are also dMerits.
5. The Maximum dMerits for one instance is 40. - equivalent to docking a worker 40 hours of Merits.
If more dMerits are deserved, the situation probably calls for more discipline than this program can hand out.
REWARDS
6. Two kinds of rewards are suggested:
a) Rewards anyone can receive when reaching required points - like lunch.
b) Rewards with multiple choice options to get data on what works best to motivate your group.
7. Make Your Own rules for the number of points required to get rewards.
8. All rules can be changed by the User.
The system is very simple to use and the Help Menu lists Topic Memos that quickly explain.
=============================================================================
HISTORY & PLANS
MERITS4U(tm) is custom Motivation Management Software developed on Windows XP and upgraded to run on Win 10. It has the security advantage of, working on a local hard drive. A Web Site is under development to reach wider groups like volunteers for Community Service and more.
If you have a need for a custom feature or, if you need additional help, Email your requirements to: Curtismj@Merits4U.com. I'll get back to you as soon as possible.
***Plan To Fix:
1) In some cases Window 10 User Account Control (UAC) interfers with the start-up and full release of older versions of software. You can overcome this problem by right-clicking and using the
"Start as Administrater choice" or turn off the UAC feature.
2) Merits4U loads a PDF Help File which can take up to a minute to load. Looking for a faster way in future versions. =============================================================================
