Key Responsibilities

As an Organization Admin or Oversight leader, you are responsible for the following areas of stewardship:

Ministry Configuration

• Posts & Zones — Define where your team serves (Pastoral Protection, Foyer, Parking, Kids Ministry, and more)
• Service Definitions — Set up your recurring weekly services with default staffing needs
• Program Management — Configure special programs and batch-schedule events
• Operational Checklists — Build standard operating procedure templates for consistent execution

Compliance & Training

• Compliance Tracks — Set up layered requirements for different member categories (Armed, LEO, Civilian, Onboarding)
• Training Admin — Define training types, schedule events, and record attendance and results

Scheduling & Operations

• Rotation Engine — Configure squad rotation cycles and automatic event generation
• Operational Reports — Build, submit, and approve weekend and event reports

Serving the Flock

• Feedback Inbox — Review suggestions, reports, and requests from your Safety Team Members

Best Practices

• Document Changes — Keep notes when modifying configuration so your team understands what changed and why.
• Test Before Roll-out — Verify new compliance tracks and schedule configurations work as expected before going live.
• Regular Reviews — Periodically audit compliance status, post configurations, and feedback submissions.
• Least Privilege — Only grant Organization Admin access to those who truly need it. Oversight handles most day-to-day stewardship.
