Allow Activity Leaders to Manage Rosters from Roster Screen

Currently if you just make someone an Activity Leader of an Activity Group the required way for that person to add/drop members from the group is to follow these steps:

  1. Switch Persona to onCampus
  2. Select People > Activity
  3. Select Activity Members

Select the Group

  1. Add/Drop Members

As a work around if you make a Content Editor Access Group, add the Activity Leader to it and give that group access to the Activity Group in question they will be able to use the "Manage" button directly on the Activity page under the Roster.  I feel this should be the DEFAULT action and not require the additional steps of creating and maintaining this Activity Content Editor Access group.

As an aside, that I may open another idea for, it's worth noting that while the Activity Content Editor Access groups and Editors are rolled over with the Master Rollover the permissions given to these groups on the Activity Groups are not.  So those permissions will need to be manually created for each group.

    Hi! This is something that already exists, but it needs to be enabled by Customer support, this will enable access to allow teachers, advisors, coaches and activity leaders to manage their rosters, but you can later remove the access to specific roles by editing their tasks

    The 'old' access is a Podium task that really need an update. Additionally, a Blackbaud employee CAN enable the 'Manage Roster' button to be seen, but would have to do so by enabling ALL section leaders (teachers etc) to edit their roster from Core> Settings> School Information> Schools & Grade levels

    2. Click Tasks
    3. Make sure that "Manage Activity Members" is checked.

    How is this not a thing yet?  Teachers can do this in classes, right?  Why not activities?!

    I agree. Managing directly from the roster screen is easy and clear. The other method is not.

    This came up at UC18 in Seattle, and I think someone said this was done.  I have contacted support twice and both time they could not find this way yet...

    • Would also like the ability to FILTER the list of students BY GENDER before adding select students to roster. Please add gender as an available filter.

    • And Most Definitely YES, please provide an update allowing activity leaders to manage rosters from the activity group's roster screen.
