Adding achievements to members

The following guide is for sheepTeams app. If you are unable to access the sheepTeams app, please contact your admin for permissions.

There are two ways to add achievements to members: Finding the achievement and adding to the group or individual; and Finding the member and adding an achievement to them.

Finding the achievement and adding to the group or individual

After logging in to the sheepTeams app, click on the Achievements tab to view the achievements that are currently in-progress with your group. If you want to add a member to an active achievement, click on View progress.

To add a group to a new achievement, click on Show More Achievements to view the achievements you can choose from. Click on View Achievement to view the achievement steps and the ability to add the achievement to your group.

If the achievement is inactive, you'll see the ability to add an individual or the entire group at the top of the page. If already started for some of your members, you'll see a panel containing all of your member's progress with the two buttons at the bottom of the page.

To add your entire group of members, click on Start all Group Members and this achievement will be added to every member n your group. If you want to add to a specific member, click on Start Individual to bring up a window with a list of your members to add the achievement to.

Finding the member and adding an achievement to them

Click on the Achievements tab for the member to see achievements they have already finished or are currently working on. Click on Show More Achievements to view inactive achievements.

Locate the achievement you wish to add the member to and click on Start to add the achievement to the member. This will immediately appear alongside the other in-progress achievements where you can check the steps to confirm them.

Marking steps as completed for an achievement

The following guide is for sheepTeams app. If you are unable to access the sheepTeams app, please contact your admin for permissions.

Finding the achievement and marking steps complete for the whole group

After logging in to the sheepTeams app, click on the Achievements tab to view the achievements that are currently in-progress with your group. Locate the achievement you wish to update progress on and click on View progress.

The achievement page will show your members' progress as well as detailed descriptions of each step that make up the achievement - this is collapsed by default, but can be opened by clicking on Show Achievement Steps. Underneath the steps you will find your member list. You can use the search function to limit the list to the specific member you are looking for.

Members who have not finished the achievement will have the steps that make up the achievement in a row of boxes beneath their name and photo. You can view or add notes for the member or view a more detailed view of the steps by clicking on the arrow in the top right corner of the member card.

Updating steps

  • To mark a step as complete, click on the corresponding box once. This will fill in the box and have a tick to show it has been completed.

  • To mark a step as incomplete, click on the box again. The box will become hollow to show it is no longer completed.

  • To mark all steps as complete for the member, click on Mark all as completed.

Adding notes

Expand the member's card on the member to view existing notes. Click on Add Note to bring up a window allowing you to add a note with basic content. Once saved, the note will be attached to the member regarding the achievement.

Once all the steps have been marked as complete, you can mark the achievement as finished by clicking on Finish Achievement - marking the achievement as finished will 'award' the achievement to the member and sheepTeams will 'archive' the achievement for the member.

Please note: Members who have finished the achievement will appear in this list as well. You can expand the card to view or add notes, however you can no longer mark any of the steps as incomplete.
