Catalogs: your types and tags

Updated on 06 de June, 2026

Catalogs are the "lists" Domo uses everywhere: event types, group types, note types and pastoral tags. Setting them up makes Domo speak your church's language.

The church's configurable catalogs

What you can configure

In Catalogs you'll find four lists:

  • Event types — worship service, meeting, rehearsal, etc. (with a color for the calendar).
  • Group types — cell group, discipleship, youth group…
  • Pastoral note types — general, visit, counseling…
  • Pastoral tags — themes to classify notes (grief, finances, etc.).

What you can do with each list

  • Add a new item.
  • Rename it (you type and it saves on its own).
  • Change its color, on the ones that allow it.
  • Turn some on or off, to stop using them without losing what's already entered.
  • Delete the ones not in use.

Some items are protected and can't be deleted, because the system depends on them (for example, the "discipleship" type, which activates the special behavior of discipleships).

An important detail about notes

In note types you can mark a type as "confidential by default". That makes notes of that type start as restricted automatically. It's why counseling and discipline are usually restricted (see Confidentiality of notes).

For now catalogs can't be reordered from the screen; the order is the default. What you do control is which items exist and what they're called.
