Already a Chart Pro customer and not seeing options in Planning Center? Follow these troubleshooting steps.

Before Getting Started, please confirm:

  • Account has an active Chart Pro subscription, annual or monthly.

  • Account has not reached the Chart Pro chart limit
    (Found on your Chart Pro account page)

  • Account setting things up is an Organization Admin on MultiTracks.com, and a full Planning Center Organization Admin. (More info here).


Connecting MultiTracks.com and Planning Center Accounts

Importing your Chart Pro files directly into Planning Center is easy. First you'll need to connect your MultiTracks.com and Planning Center accounts from the Connected Accounts page on MultiTracks.com here: Connected Accounts
More info: Connecting Planning Center accounts Article


Setup Admins to Import Charts

The next necessary step in the process would be granting Chart Pro import access to people on your MultiTracks.com account, and Planning Center account.

Note: Only admins importing Chart Pro content will need to have these below permissions and links. Any team member in your Planning Center will have access to imported Chart Pro Content. If utilizing RehearsalMix files as well in Planning Center, refer to Integrating RehearsalMix and Planning center Services.

  1. First, import or invite Planning Center admins to the MultiTracks.com, to link their Planning Center Profile to a MultiTracks.com profile. This can be done by any MultiTracks.com admin on the People Page of your MultiTracks.com. More Info.

  2. After importing and/or linking the admins from MultiTracks.com, you'll also need to give that profile Chart Pro permissions by checking the "Chart Pro" checkmark underneath the profile info.

    Granting Chart Pro permissions will allow this user to unlock new song charts which deduct from the organization's Chart Pro chart limit. Learn More.

Importing Charts within Planning Center Services requires the Planning Center profile to be an Editor or higher as well as the above requirements. More info.

Now your admins are all setup to import charts within Planning Center Services!

Team Accessing Chart Pro resources in Planning Center.

Some information below around how team members can access Chart Pro resources in Planning Center Services.

After Chart Pro resources are imported to a particular song, the resources need to be unlocked by someone with a Chart Pro license from MultiTracks.com. The resources can be unlocked by simply opening the file.

  • Opening any particular Chart Pro resource for a song (ex. Lyrics), will unlock ALL Chart Pro resources for that song in Planning Center.

  • Team members DO NOT need Chart Pro licenses to access unlocked Chart Pro resources in Planning Center. Team members DO need Chart Pro licenses in order to open Chart Pro resources that have not been unlocked yet.
