Campuses
Multi-site ministries using Realm Multiply should turn on the campus feature to improve reporting, attendance tracking, and more.
If you only have one physical location or site, you don't need to worry about campuses. But if you have multiple sites or locations, we recommend that you specify them. Once set up, they will be available throughout Realm.
There are many reasons to do this. It helps with attendance tracking, targeting communication, knowing who to invite to specific campus events, setup, and other activities. Your congregants will also have the option to connect themselves to their preferred location.
