If a publisher moves into your congregation, you can Import Persons or add person

If a publisher moves into your congregation temporarily, but will still be reporting in their old congregation, you can add them and then tick Spiritual > Does Not Report Here

However if a publisher is not in your congregation, they cannot be added to NW Scheduler. NW Scheduler has been designed for your congregation only.

Add the publisher as normal, then tick Spiritual > Does Not Report Here

This feature is designed for publishers who visit a congregation for a period of time, are construction servants, or other types of special full-time servants. These publishers are in good standing, and are approved to handle parts, are assigned to a field service group, but still report their field service time to the branch directly, or to their previous congregation.
