Inventory Feature
A new feature has been added for clubs, the ability to maintain an inventory of club equipment along with date acquired, original and replacement cost, current condition and who it has been loaned to among other data.
The facility also includes being able to add a photograph of the item and a copy of any receipt. This along with a description will assist clubs in reporting thefts to the police and pursuing an insurance claim.

New Features
Golden Records Online has been updated to add two new features.
Club Calendar
Club events can be added to an Outlook style calendar and advertised to members through their online portal. Events can be made private and hidden from members and it supports colour coding and recurring events. Event attendance can be managed, and through the existing Waiting List feature beginners course and taster sessions can be also managed. Members can add their desire to attend and this will be visible to the club managers.
Attendance
Attendance of members can be tracked and reported. This is independent of the calendar and only records the day attended and not times. Data can be exported or reported within Golden Records Online to show how often members are attending. An import facility is available for adding existing data or for bulk updating.

Subscription Price Increased
Subscription rates have increased from April 14 2024 to £27.50 for an annual club subscription, £49.50 for 2 years and £71.50 for 3 years. The personal subscription rate has increased to £11 per year.
The increase will apply from the next renewal, or in the case of trial subscriptions from the end of the trial.
The previous subscription price for Golden Records Online was set back in 2017.
Although this increase exceeds inflation it is the first increase in 7 years and to keep pace with inflation since 2017 a 25% increase would be needed. Future increases will be annual.
