Parish Data System

Parish Data System (PDS) from ACS Technologies is a hybrid church management solution that caters to parishes, schools, dioceses and helps them to manage, automate and organize their day-to-day operations. The solution can either be deployed on-premise or hosted in the cloud. Churches turn to PDS to help organize and coordinate all of their operational, activity, and family information.

Keep track of an unlimited number of contribution details, run fundraising campaigns more effectively, and give members more ways to donate — both online or off. Simplify the exchange of accurate family and financial information between your diocese, parishes and other organizations by standardizing diocese with PDS.

PDS offers users various modules to manage finances, contributions, communications, events, reports, schools and childcare and more. In addition to church management features, PDS offers users tools to handle processes unique to Catholic institutions such as a sacramental register for recording, indexing and searching baptism, confirmation, communion, marriage and death records, 'Formation Office' module for tracking religious-education data and coordinating tuition, fees, contributions and fundraising.

Additionally, PDS supports integration with other ACS Technologies products. PDS Church Office empowers staff to keep families informed, active, and connected to church. Easy to use features provide innovative ways to save time, maintain church records, and track funds and finances.

Parishes use PDS Church Office to simplify the tasks associated with the daily management of family and parish information. Support stewardship goals with pre-defined letters and reports specifically tailored for stewardship projects. Post changes to contribution, family, and member data automatically in bulk or one record at a time.
