Tracking your meeting votes in Zeck is a simple process with a lot of administrative impact.
Included in this article:
1. Pre-Voting
Your Board Directors (designated on the People page) will have the ability to cast a Pre-Vote for any enabled Vote blocks on the Published Site.
To Pre-Vote:
- Click the Pre-Vote button
- Then click Approved, Not Approved or Abstained
- If a Board Director needs to change their Pre-Vote, they can click Clear My Pre-Vote and then vote again as desired.
- Admins can then use the anonymized Pre-Vote outcome to inform the Finalization of the vote and use the Take Vote button to save the vote to the minutes book.
⚠️ Note to Admins who are also Board Directors: You will see BOTH the Take Vote and Pre-Vote buttons on the Published Site. Take Vote will finalize the vote so this should be done during the meeting. You will click Pre-Vote to vote along with your fellow directors ahead of the meeting.
2. Recording the Final Vote
The Take Vote button allows any account Admin to record the final vote results. Once clicked, this Vote block cannot be reactivated for Pre-Voting.
To record votes during a live meeting:
- Navigate to the Voting Section in your Published Zeck
- Review the motion and click the Take Vote button
- Once you have tallied your in-person, oral vote, click Approved or Not Approved
- The motion-specific Vote Block will now indicate the status of the vote and will note the date and time of approval
To Edit a completed Vote:
-
Click the Edit Vote button in the Vote block
-
You will not be able to edit the Title and Detail text or change a Vote Status between Approved and Not Approved.
- Click Save to record the new Vote information.
- An alert window will open confirming that you would like to edit a vote that has already been taken. Click Yes, Save Edits to save the changes.
