Registering visitors to other chapters and being recognised for this on PALMS/Stats
Why can we not register visitors to other chapters via the connect? Personally I get lots of visitors to other chapters but never get the recognition for this as it doesn’t show on PALMS.
I understand that putting a 1 in the V column in that person's chapter could be seen to falsify the chapter stats but there are both chapter and member records to consider. Why not just have the ability to show this on the members stats? There’s an argument to say that if a chapter put a visitor down on their stats that was brought by a member from another chapter then that is technically falsifying their records because that chapter is being recognised for x amount of visitors but they haven’t all been brought by their own members.
It is a bug bearer of mine – 12 years in BNI and I bring lots of visitors/members to both my own chapter and chapters across the region and I believe it should be formally recognised!

@dave - thank you for this suggestion. It is on our radar, but will require a complex reworking of both the basic infrastructure of the PALMS and several corresponding reports. That said, we do hope that some day we will be able to accommodate this. Have a great weekend!
