Understanding Roles: In the Impact Strategy App, there are three main roles you can assign to team members. Each role has specific permissions and capabilities, so it's important to choose the role that best aligns with each team member's responsibilities.

  1. Administrator:

    • Definition: Administrators have full access and control over the team's projects and strategies. They can perform any action, including creating, editing, deleting, and managing team members and their roles.
    • When to Use: The Administrator role should be assigned to team leaders, managers, or individuals who need full control over the team's activities and settings.
  2. Editor:

    • Definition: Editors have the ability to read, create, and update projects and strategies. They can contribute to the team's work but do not have permission to delete or manage team members.
    • When to Use: The Editor role is ideal for team members who need to contribute to projects and strategies actively but only require partial administrative access.
  3. Viewer:

    • Definition: Viewers have read-only access to the team's projects and strategies. They can view and review the team's work but do not have permission to create, edit, delete, or manage team members.
    • When to Use: The Viewer role suits stakeholders, funders, or team members who need to review the team's work but do not need to make any changes.

Unlimited Users: With the Impact Strategy App, you can invite unlimited users to join your team, regardless of their role. This allows you to collaborate with as many team members as needed to achieve your impact goals. Whether you have a small team or a large organization, the Impact Strategy App provides the flexibility and scalability to drive positive change.

3. Once the team member's email has been added, it will show up in "Pending Team Invitations," and the recipient will be notified of this invite via email.
