Who can do what

Each module already documents its permissions in its own "Who can do what" section — this page brings them all together in one place, so you don't have to hunt them down one by one.

Roles covered

The tables below focus on the logistics coordinator / logistics assistant distinction, the most fine-grained and most consulted one. For sector members and the organization administrator, see Sector Space and Admin Space respectively.

Available roles​

An account can hold several roles at once: they stack (the transport lead who also delivers equipment, for example, holds both "Transport lead" and "Logistics assistant").

System roles — present in every organization, cannot be deleted:

RoleWho
Organization administratormanages everything in their organization, has access to all spaces
Logistics coordinatordrives logistics end to end
Logistics assistantprepares and executes, without the structural decisions

Committee roles — created automatically with your organization, for the usual functions of an organizing committee:

RoleWhat it covers
Chairoverview of all modules, read-only, plus exports
Treasurerinvoices (from verification to payment) and budget envelopes
Race leadrace schedule, sectors, locations, incidents
Bib leadcross-sector visibility; the real work happens in their sector
Volunteer leadusers, sectors, and sector roles
Sponsorship leadsponsor contracts and their allocation to orders
Safety leadlocations (including import), planning, incidents, checklists
Transport leadvehicle fleet, planning, forced returns at the depot kiosk
Communications leaddocument templates, letterheads, day-of display

These nine roles are a starting point, not a fixed framework: the organization administrator adjusts their permissions in the matrix, deletes them if they don't match anything at your organization, and creates others — see Admin Space → Global Roles.

Functions tied to a location are sectors

Bib numbers, refreshment stand, aid stations, speaker… are first managed as sectors (with a sector lead), not as global roles. A global role is only useful for what goes beyond a single sector. See Sector roles.

Requests​

Creation is reserved for members with the "can submit requests" capability; validation is reserved for the logistics coordinator. Accepting or rejecting an amendment on an already validated request follows the same rule.

A constant across the app​

The logistics coordinator always has access to the full set of actions. The logistics assistant can view and move day-to-day work forward (receiving, distributing, planning), but structural or irreversible actions — validating a request, cancelling a finalization (except for distributions), closing a return, managing the fleet or the budget — remain reserved for the coordinator.

"Reserved for the coordinator" is a default setting

Unless stated otherwise, these splits are the ones shipped when the organization is created. The organization administrator can change them in the permissions matrix (Admin → Roles) — for example granting "Set the budget" to the treasurer, or "Decide on an amendment" to the assistant.

Two limits don't move from the matrix, no matter which box is checked:

  • Actions on equipment (planning and carrying out distributions, receiving, viewing supplier contact details) remain reserved for logistics roles — this is the "logistics is the only actor that touches equipment" rule. For another role to get access, add them the Logistics assistant role on top of their own.
  • The Organization administrator role cannot be removed from the last remaining administrator.
