What can I do as a read-only manager?

Organization managers with read-only permissions can view everything in Bloomerang Volunteer but are limited in the actions they can take. For example, you can view all opportunities, volunteer profiles, schedules, and public pages, but you cannot make changes to them. 

If certain permissions are enabled, you might be able to export reports and data such as waiver agreements. Or, you might send messages and broadcasts from the system. For example, a communications manager who is responsible only for volunteer communications might send messages to volunteers but cannot edit opportunities. Or, if a user is responsible only for collecting and reporting data, they might interact with data but cannot send broadcasts.

If you don’t have access to send messages, you can still preview emails with features such as personalization fields, schedule insertion, and templates, but you can’t send the message to users (including yourself).

To check if you have read-only permissions, look for a Read Only Mode banner on your page while logged in to your Bloomerang Volunteer account. If you think your permissions are not correct, contact your organization manager.
