Being church clerk gives you an opportunity to play an important role in your church community. eAdventist Membership has been helping our conference maintain membership records since 2003.
Thank you for accepting the call to be a church clerk.
eAdventist help
After logging into eAdventist, on the upper right hand corner, you’ll notice the word “help” to the left of your login name. Once you click on that, you’ll have access to the training exercises and everything else in the eAdventist manual. The Help link is found on both the regular site and the DEMO (demonstration) site, also known as the practice site.
eAdventist DEMO website
Access to the eAdventist DEMO website is granted to new clerks for the duration of the training module. A user authorization form must be signed and submitted to the conference clerk. To login, visit their website at https://demo.eadventist.net.

Once new clerks have graduated from the DEMO site, be sure to log in via the eAdventist Membership Login tab and not the Retirement Personnel Login tab. To login, visit their website at https://www.eadventist.net/login.
eAdventist Knowledge Base
There are a number of supplemental training articles, including sections about Transfers, Officers, Pastors, Attendance, etc. These are all found by clicking on the yellow Home tab. Knowledge Base is the third item listed on this menu. (TIP: Knowledge Base is found on both the regular site and the DEMO site and can be accessed after logging in.)

Attendance
Clerks must record attendance (usually counted by deacons/elders). Please keep track of your church/company Sabbath Worship and Sabbath School attendance totals. Be sure to count everyone in the worship service, including babies. Include group numbers as well in that total number. Please add all of the division Sabbath school attendance and report the total on the form or in eAdventist. (Clerks may enter their weekly worship service total and weekly Sabbath School total into the database at the end of the week. Or they may input their weekly totals into the database at the end of each month.)
If you are a clerk of an offline church or company, complete an Attendance Report form and send it by mail, OR scan and email it to clerk@nccsda.com. Whichever option you choose, we appreciate you recording attendance before the end of each quarter (March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31).
Timeliness
We would appreciate you recording your membership changes on time. Please be sure to enter or submit your membership changes in a timely manner. We prefer to minimize the amount of late entries. Examples would be before the end of the month and definitely before the end of each quarter (March, June, September, December).
