Settings
Settings is the single home for organization configuration. Open it from the Admin menu in the sidebar (the Admin section now contains just Training, Feedback Inbox, and Settings). Inside, configuration is grouped into five tabs so an administrator can scan them on a phone.
Admin & Oversight: Organization Admins and Oversight leaders can open Settings. A few sub-pages are Organization Admin only — each is marked below and enforced on the server, not just hidden from the menu. Members, Coordinators, and Squad Leaders cannot reach Settings.
Reorganized, not rewritten. Every configuration screen that used to live as a loose item in the flat Admin menu moved here. The old URLs (/admin/services, /admin/programs, etc.) still work — they redirect to their new homes. Day-to-day work surfaces (Dashboard, Schedule, Incidents, Patrol Logs, Reports) did not move.
Opening Settings
- Click Admin in the sidebar, then click Settings.
- The Settings index shows a card for each tab you can see, listing its sub-pages.
On a phone the index is a tap-through directory; on a tab page the tab bar is a single horizontally-scrollable strip so nothing wraps or collapses.
The Five Tabs
Organization
Who you are as a ministry. Visible to Organization Admins and Oversight.
| Sub-page | What it does | Access |
|---|---|---|
| Organization Profile | Read-only view of your org’s name, logo, and primary color (branding edits require support for now). | Admin & Oversight |
| Campuses | Manage your campuses (an ISD sees these labeled “Schools”). | Admin & Oversight (mutations Admin only) |
| Terminology | Override display nouns — e.g. call squads “Teams” or campuses “Schools” — so the app speaks your ministry’s vocabulary. | Admin & Oversight (edits Admin only) |
Scheduling
How and when your team serves. Visible to Organization Admins and Oversight.
| Sub-page | What it does | Access |
|---|---|---|
| Services | Define recurring weekly services. | Admin & Oversight |
| Programs | Configure named activities and batch-schedule events. | Admin & Oversight |
| Rotation & Config | The Rotation Engine — cycle length, anchor date, and auto-generation horizon. | Admin only |
Operations
How your team operates. Visible to Organization Admins and Oversight.
| Sub-page | What it does | Access |
|---|---|---|
| Posts & Zones | Define the posts and zones your team covers. | Admin & Oversight |
| Patrol Categories | Configure the tags for Patrol Logs. | Admin only |
| Checklists | Build SOP templates and link them to services or programs. | Admin & Oversight (edits Admin only) |
Checklists is module-gated: on an organization without the checklists module, the sub-page is hidden and its route redirects.
Compliance
What your team must meet. Organization Admin only — Oversight cannot reach this tab or its route.
| Sub-page | What it does | Access |
|---|---|---|
| Compliance Admin | Define compliance tracks, requirements, and phases for member categories. | Admin only |
Messaging
How your team talks. Visible to Organization Admins and Oversight when the messaging module is enabled; the whole tab is hidden otherwise.
| Sub-page | What it does | Access |
|---|---|---|
| Channel Policy | Set who can post to the org-wide channel, and preview the no-expectation-of-privacy notice members see. | Admin & Oversight (mutations Admin only) |
Per-person notification preferences are not here — they live on your Profile page, because they are a personal setting, not an org one.
Access at a Glance
| Role | Sees |
|---|---|
| Organization Admin | All five tabs (Messaging only if the module is on). |
| Oversight | Organization, Scheduling, Operations, and Messaging (if on). No Compliance tab. |
| Coordinator / Member / Squad Lead | No Settings access. |
| Platform Admin | Uses the separate Platform console, not this surface. |
