     Unit Visit Tracking System

This System is improved and easy to use. So, we reach all Commissioners, and they use it regularly, instead of just entering visits, consider Unit Contacts  they make by phone, fax, or e-mail. For DCs, because of their busy schedules, since all Commissioners are allowed in it, suggest they choose an ADC for their System.
