Brother Assignments

[ajtruckle]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Public Talks has a Brothers feature. Could we extend the Assignments section of the Speakers window in Meeting Schedule Assistant to do something similar?

Describe the solution you'd like Add the following assignments to the list:

• Chairman
• Interpreter
• Watchtower Conductor
• Watchtower Reader

It would make sense if these controls were only enabled if the speaker is in the Local Congregation.

Additional context Then some of the dynamic drop-down lists on the Weekend Meeting Editor window can be turned into proper drop-down lists that populate the lists from the database.

By extension they could work like the Speaker combos so those who are servants or not available will show in different colours.

I do have some reservations about this concept:

• The Watchtower Reader / Interpreter might not necessarily be a Speaker. They might be an approved brother in your congregation and thus their name might only be in the publisher database.
• Similar for Open Prayer. In most cases it is the Chairman but it could be another brother.
• And the Close Prayer has the complexity of it being the visiting speaker, whom would not be in your local congregation speaker list.

These assignments can logically be added to the list of assignments in the Publisher window.
