Setting volunteer roles is a great way to allow more senior volunteers to manage other volunteers in missions. In this article, we will tell you how to create these roles and assign them to a volunteer on a mission.
How to create a role for volunteers
Go to the 'missions' section on the left of the dashboard
Select 'Roles' on the right side of the 'Active' missions tabs
Select '+ Role'
Give the new role a name and description
Select which permissions this role will have
Select 'Create role'
How to assign volunteers to a role
Select the mission
Select 'Interested volunteers'
On the role column, click on 'no role' on the volunteer you would like to add a role to
Assign them the role
You can also restrict them to groups (this means they will only manage volunteers in a certain group)
Click 'Apply changes'
You can now view which volunteers have been given a role. All those with 'No role' will have no permissions to manage other volunteers.
