Group Leader Accounts (Overview)
We designed GroupVitals so that leaders can have a login but they can also not have a login and still perform basic tasks to manage their group.
Some organizations prefer that their leaders create a GroupVitals account and some don't. It really depends upon how much you want leaders to control the information of their group and it's members.
What Group Leaders Can Do Without an Account:
- Take attendance for scheduled group meetings (and add guests if this is enabled)
- Update their group roster after taking attendance (if it's enabled)
- Update their group roster if manually sent one by an admin
- Accept / Decline group prospects via email
- Modify their email and text notifications
What Group Leaders Must Have An Account to Do:
- Email their group using GroupVitals
- Text their group using GroupVitals
- Update their group's information (meeting schedule, location, description, etc..)
- Edit personal information of group members (email, phone, etc..)
- Access to the "Resources" area (discussion question PDFs, links to studies, etc..)
- Manually take attendance for events that were not scheduled
- Update personal profile information (email, phone, spouse, etc..)
Note that there are a few additional group roles that can setup an account and have the same access as the group leader. They are: group host, apprentice leader, co-leader, group admin.
