Staff, roles & settings
Roles and what each can see
Each staff member has a role, and the role decides which tabs and actions they see. This keeps sensitive areas with the right people and keeps everyone's screen uncluttered.
The roles
- Priest — full access, including Settings.
- Administration — broad office access; not private notes or annulments.
- Parish Office — front desk: directory, messages, intentions, scheduling, calendar.
- Deacon — pastoral access without certain private and confidential areas.
- Faith Formation, Sacred Music, Maintenance — focused access to just the areas they need.
Adjusting access
A priest can fine-tune what a role sees from the role access matrix in Settings, ticking modules on or off per role. Changes take effect within seconds — no restart.
Tips
- The menu hides what a role cannot use, and the system enforces the same limits behind the scenes, so hiding is real, not cosmetic.
- Private things — pastor's notes, annulment detail — are withheld even from broad roles by default; grant them deliberately.
- Roles are also why two colleagues can see different tabs; that is by design.
