Organisation Admin Role

The Organisation Admin (orgAdmin) role allows organisations operating on the Voluntarily.nz platform to manage their organisation profile and members. Organisations include Schools, Businesses, activity providers and funding agencies.

It grants powers to view and edit areas of the platform specific to their own organisation and members but nowhere else.

People holding the orgAdmin role for their organisation are expected to be the first line of support for members of the organisation seeking help.

Enabling OrgAdmin Role

To be an OrgAdmin person you must have role = [Role.ORG_ADMIN] set in your Person record and have the relevant organisation listed in the orgAdminFor array field of your profile. It is possible to be org admin for multiple organisations.

To be an orgAdmin you must first be a member of the organisation and then have your role set to OrgAdmin by a system administrator, another existing orgAdmin or through an invitation email.

You cannot remove your own orgAdmin status.

The school-invite email creates both a new school organisation and makes the person responding to the invite the first orgAdmin for that school.

The member-invite email can be sent from an organisation members page to invite others to also be orgAdmins.

 

Recovery of an organisation account

Should for any reason an organisation lose access to their orgAdmin account e.g. by a person leaving etc. A support request should be issued asking for another existing member to be promoted to admin. This request should contain sufficient documentation to justify the change.
