Fact-Finding Summary
• A new center has 400-600 members, with two membership options: full and partial. Full members have access to all activities. Partial members are limited to activities they have selected, but they can participate in other activities by paying a usage fee. All members have charge privileges. Charges for merchandise and services are recorded on a charge slip, which is signed by the member. At the end of each day, cash sales and charges are entered into the QuickBook accounting software, which runs on a computer workstation at each location. Daily cash receipts are deposited in a local bank and credited to the corporate Golden Training account. The QuickBook program produces a daily activity report with a listing of all sales transactions. At the end of the month, the local manager uses QuickBook to transmit an accounts receivable summary to the Golden Training head office in New York, where member statements are prepared and mailed. Members mail their payments to the Golden Training head office, where the payment is applied to the member account.
• The QuickBook program stores basic member information, but does not include information about member preferences, activities, and history.
• Currently, the QuickBook program produces one local report (the daily activity report) and three reports that are prepared at the head office location: a monthly member sales report, an exception report for inactive members and late payers, and a quarterly profit and-loss report that shows a breakdown of revenue and costs for each separate activity.

To enhance their business, managers wanted to offer a computerized activity and wellness log, a personal coach service, and e-mail communication with members. Managers also wanted better ways to manage information about part-time instructors and staff. Several staff members suggested a redesign for the charge slips or scannable ID cards.
