Managing user committees and roles

As an administrator, you can control which boards and committees most users belong to. You can also edit the roles of cross-committee, cross-role users. This topic explains how to manage users' committees and roles.

  1. Select Site Management on the main Navigation panel.

  2. Select the Committees & roles tab.

  3. Select a board or committee that you will be changing.

  4. To add a user to this board or committee, select the checkbox next to their name.

  5. To remove a user from this board or committee, deselect the checkbox next to their name.

  6. If the checkbox next to a user's name is read-only and a Pencil icon is visible, they belong to multiple boards or committees with cross-roles. To edit the user's role, select the Pencil icon next to their name. The Edit window appears.

  7. To remove the user from a role, deselect the checkbox next to that role.

  8. To assign a role to the user, select the checkbox next to that role.

    Note

    You should assign the user to at least one role, so they can continue to sign in and access their materials. If you remove all the roles from a user, a warning message appears in the Edit window.

  9. To save your changes and close the window, select Save.

  10. Select Save on the Committees & roles tab to finalize your changes.

    Note

    You cannot create new users that have access to books, and you cannot delete current users entirely. Contact your Customer Success Manager for assistance with either of these tasks.

    Adding or removing users from groups will change their group memberships in Diligent Messenger as well, allowing you to manage access to secure board materials and secure board communications with a single action.
