Setting Up Master Records

Firstly you will need to set up your master records under 'Set up'

Before you start using Cemetery you need to add entries in  Cemetery Types, Cemetery Areas, Burial Types, Memorial Types, Deceased Types and Fees.

Click in the relevant menu option and the 'Add' button at the top right of the screen

• Cemetery types  The types of Cemetery you manage e.g Closed Churchyard or Lawn Cemetery
• Cemetery areas The specific areas within your Cemetery Types e.g Garden of Remembrance (short name Garden) and Burials –North side (short name Burials). You will also need to add in the total capacity for each area.   Within the cemetery area screen you can also mark out the area for your map - click here for further information.
• Burial types  Details of types of burial within your Cemetery e.g Burial, Cremated Remains
• Memorial types  Details of types of Memorials within your Cemetery e.g Headstone or Flat Tablet
• Deceased type  These are created automatically for you.
