Group Members and Leaders

A group is made up of both group members and group leaders.

The list of members in a group is called the group's "roster."

People don't need to have records before you add them to a group. If you add a person without a record to a group, you are taken to a page where you can first add them to the data.

Once an individual has been added as a group member, he or she can be promoted to group leader.

What permissions do leaders, members, and guests have?

When someone is made a group member or leader, he or she automatically inherits new permissions. Below is a list of guest, member, and leader permissions for standard groups.

Group leaders cannot see contact information that profile owners have specified visible to Users with Permission Only.

* An administrator or user with permission determines what permissions group leaders have. Because of this, group leaders at your church may not have these additional rights.
