Multi-parish benefices
Most multi-parish benefices have a separate PCC for each parish, and therefore need a separate dashboard for each parish.
However, a multi-parish benefice with a joint PCC might prefer to have a single dashboard for the whole benefice. There are two alternative methods for making this change:
- Add the new benefice* and then delete the individual parishes; OR
- Rename one of the parishes with the name of the benefice, and then delete the other parishes
Method 2 is slightly quicker, and it also preserves any data in the renamed parish.
* When adding the new benefice, it needs to be created as a pseudo-parish.
