Now that your church is set up, invite the people who’ll help manage it. Each person you invite gets a specific role that controls what they can see and do in Bethel ChMS.

Choose the right role

Not sure which role to pick? Here’s a quick summary:
  • Org Admin: Organisation-level access across every branch. Good for senior pastors or headquarters staff who oversee the whole network.
  • Branch Admin: Manages members, attendance, and events for a specific branch. Ideal for local pastors or office managers.
  • Editor: Can add and update records within a branch but cannot change settings or invite others.
  • Treasurer: Can access Gifting & Donations for one branch, without access to members, events, or other branch data.
For a full breakdown of what each role can do, see Roles and permissions.

What the invitee sees

The invitee receives an email with a magic link. When they click it, they land on the Accept invitation page, which shows:
  • The name of your organisation
  • The role they’ve been assigned
  • The branch they belong to, if their role is branch-scoped
They set a password (minimum 8 characters) and they’re in. No extra setup required on their end.
