The Age Bands page allows you to set and adjust the age bands used in the Charitylog system for displaying data and reporting.
How Age Bands work
The Age Band field is available for all org/person Types. The user can manually select an Age Band but the field will also auto-fill if data is put in the "Date of Birth" fields. For example, if the user enters the date of birth as a day, month and year;
...then the "Age Range" and "Age Now" fields automatically fill themselves out.
This will work even if the user only enters a year of birth (the system assumes they were born on the 1st January) which can be useful for doing age-band-based reports even if the user doesn't want to ask the person for an exact date of birth.
