Production audit note

This validation build records audit events in browser storage. The hosted version should generate append-only audit records server-side, protect them from tenant admins, and retain/export them according to customer policy.

Help documentation

Built-in documentation for the current validation build and production SaaS design direction.

Documentation

Planning Center Giving

Configure how online giving will flow into the accounting ledger.

Integration framework

Multi-tenant connectors can be enabled per customer without changing the core ledger.

Security model

Secrets should never be stored in the browser. The SaaS version should store encrypted connector credentials per tenant and perform sync jobs server-side.

Company / organization settings

Site admins can update the church or customer name, address, phone, website, tax details, and SaaS tenant metadata used on reports and printouts.

Branding

Site admins can configure the logo, app name, colors, and visual identity for the church or customer tenant.

SL
SimpleStewardChurch finance made simple for faithful stewards

SimpleSteward is the product brand. The organization logo, colors, and display text can be tailored per tenant. Uploaded logos are preserved with their full aspect ratio on a neutral canvas so they are not cropped, stretched, or color-shifted.

Data tools

Validation mode uses browser storage. Export often.

Planning Center integration path

This validation build supports CSV import now. For cloud hosting, use a server-side OAuth connection so Planning Center secrets are never stored in the browser.

Security and access

Manage users, roles, permissions, and the Google Workspace federation plan.
