We do need a way to see the individual TYFTB that are credited to us. I understand the need to keep anonymous who has made that submission, but that is not generally.necessary for us to work out who we may need to encourage to acknowledge for business given. Also, unless we constantly track the changes to our TYFTB totals or the Mem Co mentions it in the meeting, we will never know the details of the amounts ( and so number of items) that get added and this would be very helpful to know.

  Great to hear from you, hope all is well!

  The TYFCB slips online was modeled directly inline with the official paper slips program in BNI. In the paper version, the TYFCB is an anonymous entry (for many reasons, some of them for client confidentiality).

  From the BNI Slips document (http://support.bniconnect.com/entries/40561363-BNI-Slips-Program-Overview):
  Note: By assigning this amount to the person who gave the referral resulting in the business, this 
  will preserve confidentiality of each individual’s income. In addition, this will show each member’s value as a “referral giver” to the other members of the chapter.

  Although a notification and\or seeing both sides of the transaction may be desired by some, it could be "illegal" for others. Most notably this could cause doctors, lawyers and other professionals to not be able to participate in the TYFCB process.

  In the meantime, the best way to make another member aware is by letting them know and, if there is mutual agreement, announcing it during the "I have" portion of the meeting.

  Hope this helps!
