GVO Administration Settings
Each GVO has a local super-user who has the user profile of ‘Manager’. The ‘Manager’ can perform several functions in the GVO that no other users (Readers, Authors, Editors) can carry out (including adding and amending user access).
The ‘Administration Settings’ for the GVO are accessed from the main navigator using the ‘Settings’ link (only visible to the ‘Manager). After any of the changes described below are made then press the ‘Submit’ button at the bottom of the screen (or Cancel to discard the changes).
The following settings are available:
- Name of the GVO – this is the text that will appear on screens as users navigate around the GVO
- List of Policy Types – this allows each policy to be given a category which helps with sorting and searching.
- The ability to disable the weekly newsletter for all users
- The ability to choose which day of the week the newsletter is sent out (use dropdown, select the day then SUBMIT).
- To change the setting for email notifications - one option has all recipients in the To: list (so visible to all recipients) and the other is to have them as Bcc: (so invisible).
- To specify the number of days warning in the weekly newsletter about policies due for renewal (normally 60 days)
- To allow the meeting pack download function (or not)
- To set up the 'master data' for Governor Records. This includes the options for 'Type of Governor', 'Appointing Body' and 'Governor Roles' - these options will be applied to the governor records throughout the GVO (either single school or MAT).
- The ability to reorder the main navigation panel. The Calendar and Task links may be located at the top or bottom of the list and the other folders can be ‘dragged’ into any order by using the grey boxes with the three horizontal lines..
