Contact Information Permissions

Giving people access to Planning Center depends on their role at your church. Staff and background-checked leaders may have enough trust to access people's information, whether to edit or view, but people outside of that trusted circle should be given lower permissions.

Important

Only organization administrators can edit profile information for people across all Planning Center products.

This table outlines who can access people's contact information based on their permissions in another product.

Give Access

From the People page, type the person's name you'd like to give access to.

When a person is added, they'll receive an email that allows them to set their password and log in.

Important

Emails are sent to the primary email address, except for Account Settings. Account Settings sends an email to every email address listed on an organization administrator or billing manager's profile.

Remove Administrator

To remove a person's access, select Actions next to their name and select Remove administrator from the dropdown.

Removing a person's access will not notify them. When they try to log in, they will encounter an error page.

Important

You can't remove an organization administrator from Publishing.
