Managing Permissions

This guide covers how to add new admins, edit existing permissions, and remove admin access in ChurchNET.

Note: Only App Admins can manage permissions. If you do not see the Admin Permissions screen, contact your church's App Admin.

Opening the Admin Permissions Screen​

  1. Open the Admin Hub from the home screen
  2. Tap Admin Permissions

You will see a list of all users who currently have any admin role (App Admin or Module Admin).

Adding a New Admin​

  1. Tap the + icon in the top-right corner
  2. Search for a user by name
  3. Select the user from the search results
  4. The permission editor dialog will open
  5. Configure their permissions (see below)
  6. Save your changes

Editing Permissions​

Tap an existing admin in the list to open the permission editor dialog. From here you can adjust their access level.

Setting App Admin​

  • Toggle App Admin on to grant full access to all modules and settings
  • When App Admin is enabled, all module checkboxes are automatically checked and locked — an App Admin always has access to everything

Setting Module Admin​

  • Toggle App Admin off to configure per-module access
  • Individually check or uncheck each module to grant or revoke admin access for that module
  • A user can have admin access to any combination of modules

Removing Admin Access​

To remove all admin access from a user:

  1. Tap the user in the admin list
  2. Turn off App Admin (if enabled)
  3. Uncheck all module permissions
  4. Save your changes

The user will be removed from the admin list and will return to regular member access.

Real-Time Updates​

Permission changes take effect immediately. There is no need for the affected user to restart the app — ChurchNET uses real-time listeners to update permissions as soon as they are saved.

Demo Account Restriction​

Permissions cannot be changed for the demo user account. If you are using a demo church, the demo user's permissions are locked and cannot be modified.
