Initial setup for Scout Groups

Initial setup for Scout Groups

All Scout Groups in Queensland have been enabled for Operoo.

 

As part of the setup and then ongoing registration of appropriate Leaders are added to the relevant section as Staff. After the initial setup the sync with SMS will add and remove Staff as it is changed in SMS.

 

Youth Members are synced to Operoo during registration. They are removed when resigned in SMS.

 

If Staff are linked to a form, they will be able to see the profiles for the Members attending the Activity. It will also enable them to download profiles for those Activities that occur outside of normal mobile phone range using the smartphone app.

 

They will also be able to create eforms.

 

Staff are those people who by the nature of their role have responsibility for the care of others and have a legitimate need to access the Operoo profiles of those in their care. For example, a Cub Scout Leader could be a Staff carer for their Cub pack. A person can be assigned as a Staff Member for a Group, Section or event (eForm).

 

For privacy purposes, Staff Carers should only have access to Operoo profiles when it is a legitimate requirement of their role and their access should be withdrawn during any other periods.
