Definition: An ecosystem is a larger group or network of organizations that collaborate on specific activities or projects within the Do It platform.

Translation: Think of it like a collaborative workspace where multiple organizations and groups work together toward a shared goal, much like a community or network.

Example: If your company partners with multiple charities and nonprofits to support different causes, all these groups working together could be considered part of the same ecosystem.

Definition: Within the Do It platform, an "app" refers to a specific feature or toolset designed for a certain purpose, like volunteering, managing events, or creating actions.

Translation: Apps are like different sections or departments within the platform, each focused on specific functions.

Example: "Volunteer" might be an app focused solely on managing volunteer activities, while "Do It Day" could handle company-wide events.

Private Branded Apps (Premium): These are custom apps designed exclusively for your organization, allowing only your employees to participate.

Definition: A child organization is a sub-organization under a parent or main organization. This feature is useful for large organizations with multiple departments, offices, or regional branches.

Translation: Think of a "child org" like an office branch or department within a larger company. Each branch or department can operate independently but still under the main brand.

Example: A company with offices in London, Paris, and New York might create a child organization for each office to manage their activities separately while still part of the same company.

Definition: These are the people who belong to an organization within the platform, typically employees or internal members of your company.

Translation: Org members simply refer to your company’s staff members who have access to the platform.

Example: All employees of "Good Corp" who are registered on the platform and participate in the company’s initiatives.

Definition: Partners are external organizations or entities that collaborate with your company on specific activities, projects, or goals. These could be charities, nonprofits, or other corporate entities.

Translation: Think of partners as the external collaborators or organizations that work with your company on joint initiatives.

Example: If "Good Corp" works with a local nonprofit for a volunteer project, that nonprofit would be considered a partner.

Definition: Inviting members refers to the process of adding employees (org members) or partners (external collaborators) to the platform so they can participate in activities.

Translation: You can invite your employees (as org members) and collaborators (as partners) to join your platform.

Example: If you want to invite your staff to participate in a new event, you would invite them as org members. If you want a charity to join and collaborate, you invite them as partners.

Definition: An application refers to the process where members or partners apply to participate in an activity, event, or opportunity created by your organization.

Translation: These are simply sign-ups or requests from employees or external partners to join a particular event or project.

Example: An employee applying to participate in a company-wide volunteer day would be submitting an application.

Definition: Activities represent any events, projects, or opportunities created by your organization within the platform. These could be one-time events, ongoing opportunities, or small community actions.

Translation: Activities are the things you and your staff can do, such as volunteering, charity work, or corporate social responsibility (CSR) projects.

Example: Organizing a company volunteering day at a local food bank would be an activity.
